What You Can Do

The work of committed activists has kept the genocide in Darfur on the agenda of governments around the world. We need to keep up this steady call for international action and raise our voices to protect civilians, especially for the safety needs of Darfur's women and girls.

Your involvement is critical, and there are many effective actions you can take!
