The Alliance launched with a fabulously successful press conference this morning. With around 40 participants, plus 10 Alliance members, including BBC World Service and most of the national daily newspapers. After Aida from Action Aid presented the press release there was a lively question and answer session, then lots of individual interviews with Alliance members. More media coverage tomorrow when Abdalah from Envirocare, and Aida from ActionAid are interviewed on TV (Jambo programme) and Radio (Asubuhi programme). 

Heres the first of the articles that came out of the press release:http://www.dailynews.co.tz/business/?n=19905
