Summer+2008

This page is devoted to major news stories occuring in Sudan during June-August 2008.

As members of STAND, it is our duty to inform others of the crisis going on in Darfur. To do this, we need to be current with the situation there so that we can convince people that we need their support. Hopefully, these archives on current events will aide us all in trying to make a difference. Also, visit Darfur history for more information.
