‘Clarkies for Congo,’ Oct. 18-20: Celebrating Congo and raising awareness

The Clark University IDCE Congo Coalition, in collaboration with the Stand Organization, wish to continue the conversation that began at the Informed Activism Summit on Sept. 24. We aim to raise awareness on the Clark campus of what we can do, as university students and staff, to advocate for Congo — through petitioning the government to adopt conflict-free mineral policies, pushing technological corporations to use conflict free products, and recognizing our role as consumers in helping the people of Congo.

More details are available at on Facebook.
