Dayton for Darfur - ProfilesArchive

About Me

300,000
The death toll from both direct and indirect causes estimated by the United Nations
2,700,000
The number of Darfuris, estimated by the United Nations, who have lost their homes since the start of the conflict and now live in internally displaced persons (IDP) camps in Sudan or refugee camps in neighboring Chad
3,500,000+
The number of men, women, and children in the Darfur region reliant on humanitarian aid
1994
Not since the Rwandan genocide of 1994 has the world seen such a calculated campaign of displacement, starvation, rape, and mass slaughter
Local citizens formed Dayton for Darfur in 2006 to raise awareness about the genocide in Darfur. The stated mission of Dayton for Darfur is to compel policy-makers and other decision-makers in the United States and abroad 1) to act to end the genocide in Darfur and 2) to aid in the establishment of treaties needed for a lasting peace.
