Resources for Darfur

Article by Sylvia

As I mentioned in a comment on Bronze Trinity’s entry, there are a number of ways we as bloggers can call attention to the conflict in Darfur. One significant way is to assemble resources so people can get informed, sign petitions, and contribute to the effort to stop the conflict and help refugees. Quaker Dave, a great human rights activist blogger, has assembled a series of resources about the Darfur conflict that I think everyone should add to sidebars. Also, if there were any way someone could make a PSA or a graphic, that’d be excellent as well. (I’m not artistically inclined at all!)

Here are some sites to check out and publicize:

Amnesty Int’l: Darfur
Coalition For Darfur (blog)
Committee on Conscience: Darfur
Darfur Alert Coalition
Darfur Peace & Development
Divest for Darfur
ENOUGH
Genocide Intervention Network
Human Rights Watch: Darfur
Int’l Crisis Group: Darfur
Operation Sudan
Save Darfur
STAND
Sudan Divestment Task Force
Sudan Organization Against Torture
