APAP is pleased to inform all its partners that it was able to recently produce a table calendar in 1,000 copies and distribute it to the concerned government bodies, non-governmental actors, institutions of higher learning, APAP's partners, prominent citizens and the members of APAP's General Assembly. Our foreign partners might be interested to know that the current Ethiopian year was ushered in a little over two months ago. Hence the need for a calendar.

 In accordance with its usual modus operandi, which focuses on killing two birds with one stone, APAP has, of course, made it a point to prepare the calendar in such a way that it will also serve its recipients as a teaching aid. Accordingly, it has incorporated into it reminders of both internationally and nationally endorsed human-rights standards and the corresponding obligations of the legal and moral duty-bearers. Furthermore, the calendar publicizes the major activities that APAP normally undertakes, in close collaboration with its various stakeholders. More specifically, a total of 13 human-rights-related quotes and excerpts taken from the speeches made by prominent human-rights activists have been incorporated into the calendar. The other pieces of information that APAP has tried to disseminate through this calendar are, to mention but a few, APAP's vision, a list of its major donors, UN human-rights commemorations and action days and APAP's advocacy messages.

The table calendar was produced as part and parcel of APAP’s Accountability and Capacity Strengthening Program.
