On March 8, we will recognize the efforts and lives of women worldwide - both their triumphs and the issues they continue to face.
As part of Women for Women International's "Join me on the Bridge" project, which strives to unite societies and people in peace across the world, the RAISE Hope for Congo Campaign will be hosting a midday march for peace across the Arlington Memorial Bridge in Washington, DC.
We will march in solidarity with women from around the world, and in particular, with women from Rwanda and Congo who will also join together in peace on a bridge between their countries to demand an end to war and to demonstrate that women can build the bridges to peace and development.
The walk will be followed by short presentations by leading Congo experts and women's empowerment advocates.
Where: We will begin the march at the Women in Military Service for America Memorial at the end of Memorial Drive on the Arlington, Virginia side of the bridge. The closest metro stop is Arlington Cemetery on the blue line. From there we will walk down Memorial Drive, across the Memorial Bridge, and to the Watergate Steps at the base of the Lincoln Memorial on the Washington, DC side.
When: Meet at the Women in Service Memorial at 12:00pm on March 8, 2010. We will begin the march by 12:30pm. The march and the speakers program should finish by 1:30pm.

IN DARFUR
March 31–April 18, 2010
By Winter Miller
Directed by Derek Goldman
Based on true events, this impeccably researched chronicle of the unfolding genocide in Sudan is a searing story of humanitarian urgency and compromised journalistic ethics. Can one woman's story stand for the plight of a nation? And what are the costs of mobilizing world opinion?
Are you in the Pittsburgh area? Join students at Duquesne University for their Human Rights Festival! Co-founder of Grassroots Reconcilation Group, Sasha Lezhnev will be coming to speak about the Democraric Republic of the Congo. There will be raffles and food as well as over 10 non-profit human rights organizations from around the Pittsburgh area. Come show your support for the Democratic Republic as well as other human rights issues going on in your world today!

Enough co-founder, John Prendergast, will speak on behalf of the RAISE Hope for Congo campaign at Harvard University!
