Stop Genocide NowThe team meets the leader of the Tama people living in the camp, and the grandmother of Ahmat, the boy from i-ACT 2005 who returned to Darfur to further his education. They also connect the 20 Women for Darfur group with a Darfuri woman, Aziza.
It may be the last day of our trip, but i-Act continues through your efforts. Step up your own activism to end this genocide now. What can you do to get more involved in your local community? Nationally? Internationally?

今天是这次i-Act行程的最后一天,但要结束这场种族灭绝，还是需要你们大家的继续支持和行动。我们希望这个活动可以带来这样的启发：在你的环境，你可以更积极参与什么样的活动来提升人们对达尔富尔（Darfur）难民状况的了解？ 这里有一些想法:邀请加布里埃尔（Gabriel）到你的学校,大学或其他场地举办一个达尔富尔阵营讲解会. 我们会协助设立一个互动体验的活动，播放达尔富尔营地的录影，让你们录制自己慰问难民的录影，或观看其他来自北美的观众向难民表达的关心和爱的视频录影. 或者你可以对自己做一个承诺: 每日醒来,刷刷牙,就拨电1-800-GENOCIDE呼吁白宫以实际行动来协助结束种族灭绝. 加入当地的一个群体(或形式之一!! ) 今年秋天，Dream for Darfur将主办国际和美国火炬游行,以增加对中国施压.当奥运火炬将途经贵国或东道国之一,你也可以召集朋友讨论,可以为达尔富尔难民做什么. 欢迎你到我们的博客, 发表想法，互相交流! 启发. 教育. 影响.

Enfin ils furent pris en charge par une ONG et arrivèrent au camp. Une mère de neuf enfants laisse Connie et Gariel visiter […]
What’s next? For us, the on-the-ground i-ACT team, we start our jumps back our normal reality. This morning, we got in a small plane back to Abeche, the biggest little town in the east. Tomorrow, we get in a slightly bigger plane back to N’Djamena, the capital of Chad. A couple of days later, we […]
Hey everyone. Day 10 was late in going up. We had a full day at the camp, and we then had two conference calls, one with the SDC and their Torch Relay campaign and the other with 20 Women for Darfur. I then spent some time with our wonderful hosts, Hala and Jorge from UNHCR. […]
