Introduction
I wish to express my profound gratitude to the SADC PF Secretary General, Dr Chiviya, and the SADC PF Secretariat, for inviting me to share with this distinguished gathering of regional editors and journalists my thoughts on advocating for Sexual Reproductive Health Rights through the Media.
My multiple roles as a parent, citizen of the region, Judge and interim Co-chair of the newly established Regional Think Tank on HIV, Health and Social Justice in Southern and Eastern Africa makes this intervention a matter of duty and a rare honor indeed.
It is not quite often that a member of the judicial arm of the State has an intellectual moment with members of the 4th Estate - the shapers of public opinion.
