A delegation of Mauritanian women journalists met with Ahmedou Tidjane Bal, president of Mauritania's High Authority of the Press and Audio-visuals (HAPA), on 2 March, 2008.
The journalists called upon HAPA to support them in promoting women's role in society. Following the meeting, HAPA issued a statement urging the authorities and the media to back the organisation and to deal more regularly with the problems Mauritanian women face.
