One large tent will be set up in a manner that films dealing with human rights. Events
Goals The primary goal is to educate people (not just students) about the situation in Darfur. Considerable efforts will also be established to raise money to support non-governmental organizations that provide humanitarian support and/or education on Darfur. Scope Similar events will take place on other college campuses in the state of Florida to coincide with Project: Darfur. Ideally, the state-wide project will garner national media attention and shed new light on Darfur. Being a state-wide event, there is considerable potential to raise a significant amount money for organizations that deal with the Darfur situation.
