Strengthen the response of the African labour movement and civil society to socio-economic and political challenges that confront it, through a media intervention in the form of participatory regional radio productions and broadcasts. It is based on the recognition that there are numerous organisational and other weaknesses that undermine the African labour movementʼs ability to meet the challenges of the day, not least of which is their media capacity.

This blog serves as sample created by Ronell Swartbooi. Workers World Media Productions celebrates its 10th Anniversary this year. On evenings of the 13 and 14th May 2009 - WWMP hosted its 4th Annual Labour Film Festival. The focus this year was International Solidarity and Xenophobia.

Large companies are increasingly outsourcing to super exploit workers in South Africa. South African Education sector threatened by lack of teachers. Chinese workers left stranded as employers continue to skip the country without paying workers. Thousands of workers lose their job due to economic crisis.

Workers World Media Productions decided to expand its media productions to include video in 2006. Sharon McKinnon, an ex shopsteward of NUMSA who joined the Labour Community Radio Project of WWMP as a labour radio host and later started assisting the project coordinator at WWMP on the project - expanded her skills to include video training as this was a passion of hers. WWMP would like to continue to develop its film and video work, as well as continuing to host the Labour Film Festival.
