ZIFF POSTER AND WEBSITE LAUNCH WELL RECEIVED

ZIFF's Dean Nyalusi and Laurian Kipeja were all unusually upbeat following the Press conference on Monday 22nd March.

"We are up in most media blogs in Tanzania", Dan said excitedly, "and the morning papers in Dar Es Salaam from Habari Leo, to Majira, to Mwananchi and Citizen have all given us a plug!"

Over 50 people congregated at the Alliance Francaise Centre in Dar Es Salaam to attend the launch of the magnificent poster designed by the Norwegian teacher in Bagamoyo, Kjetil, who was in the audience to see the faces of people who appreciated the brightly coloured "Hopes in Harmony" theme's creation.

Writing from London on the new ZIFF website Kirsty Macdonald says, " Hey Martin! How are you? I've just had a look at the new ZIFF website!!! WOW!!! It looks fantastic! Hongereni sana! I love the new look!! That is worth its weight in Tanzanite! To Wil Grace, the Website designer, we say a thousand thanks.

We are now signing up volunteers to ZIFF 2010. If you have a skill that we can utilise and need to learn Festival management in a fun location with 100 young people all under 25, come to ZIFF 2010.
