WOMEN OF DARFUR

Back


The IRC's Emily Holland recently traveled to Darfur to document the lives of displaced Sudanese. In this video, she takes us inside several camps for displaced persons and describes how the IRC is helping women—from providing water and shelter to offering skills trainings and the chance to make a living.

We are sitting on our butts on these 1000 dollar computers and they're searching for water to SURVIVE

I have supported IRC for years; however I just discovered that Henry Kissinger, the author of the 200 pg "National Security Study Memorandum 200" which called for a massive population reduction of 13 key third world nations, is a chairman on the board for the IRC. I know that there are many genuinely good people working for the IRC, but I think that it is important for you to google that study before you allocate money to the IRC.

this is amusing to me, as people onthis channelare intrepretating wht is going onhere lol frm their own western perspective. it is a really dumb way of viewing someone elses circumstances. pretty naive and arrogant to think you know someones elses conditions lol. prolly thin theyknow about the culture lol- its amusing to e as a journalist.

Actually, the Arab tribes are backed by the Sudanese goverment and the rebles are backed by Western countries. They are fighting to control the natural resource in Sudan. You are right that it is all about putting in UN troops to control the land and steal the OIL for the JEWS!!!!!!!

user4754359, the militias are from the Arab tribes in Darfur. the government of Sudan dangled developmental projects in front of the Arab tribes to encourage the Arabs to join the militias. The government of Sudan gives the Arab militias salaries, weapons, communications equipment, and uniforms that are identical to the soldiers of the government of Sudan. Read a book about the genocide in Darfur before you make comments about it.
