Democracy U

I was recently asked to do a blog for a project at my school, and I spoke a little bit about my trip!

Just thought I would share.

End Forced Sterilisation Trial

While I was in Namibia, the organization I interned at was working on the End Forced Sterilization Case, trying to get a judgement court date for two years.  While I was there I worked on some letters and some brochures for the campaign, which was a very very small part of all the work that has been put in.  Some progress has been made since the July 30th Court date, but please read up on the news that is getting international attention from all over the world. I worked and was friends with the people in this article which makes it even cooler!
