Documenting

The CAFRA Policy Document on Gender and Societal Transformation was completed. It outlines CAFRA’s visions for the future and the steps towards achieving it. The 1998 Annual Report was completed and irculated. The report stressed the emerging trade issues and outreach to youth, the continuing campaign against Violence to Women and Girls, and collaboration with Women’s and other NGO’s towards achieving social transformation.

We were quite successful in compiling the Computerised Skills Bank into a loose leaf Directory which can be constantly updated. The Papers from the Seminar on Critical Perspectives on Human Rights in the Caribbean were edited and compiled for publishing.

The Final report on Tourism and the Sex Trade was received, and published in book form. The Anthology of CAFRA’s operations is in process. Originally conceived to cover the first ten years, it has been extended to cover the fourteen years period from inception to 1999. Caribbean Author, Sybil Seaforth is the project leader, and the Heinreich Boll Foundation has provided the funds.
