Ten Things You Can Do To Stop The Genocide

From Genocide Intervention Network

Sometimes it might feel like there's not much you can do about a genocide occurring a world away. In fact, you have the power to help end the genocide. The world's leaders need support and pressure from you in order to act — below are ten ways you can take action right now and have a hand in stopping genocide.

1. Join the Genocide Intervention Network because you care deeply about protecting civilians from genocide, and GI-Net can help you translate that caring into effective action. GI-Net is not just a handful of lobbyists pleading with leaders, but rather a movement of concerned citizens whose actions and electoral influence matter: we are building the first-ever permanent anti-genocide constituency!
2. Support the African Union peacekeepers in Darfur by contributing to the Genocide Intervention Network. More than half of your donation to the fund will go directly to supporting civilian protection in Darfur. The remaining amount helps fund our other programs, including the support we give to our members, advocacy initiatives like the Darfur scorecard and education initiatives. Your single dollar will be turned into many more dollars as it is used to pressure the United States to appropriate funds to the peacekeepers, to sign up more GI-Net members and to give those members the tools for effective fundraising and advocacy.
