The Kite Runner author visits Darfur refugees

[joequirk]

The spirit that drove Khaled to become a physician, to write his compassionate books, to speak to Congress on behalf of Afghanistan, and then to become UN Envoy on behalf of Darfur, is all consistent. He's a sweet humble guy and we should all live up to his example.

I'm a medical doctor. I would like to help out in Darfur but I don't know how to get started. Can anyone tell me how I could seek a position with some agency in the ongoing effort to help out in Darfur.

if u really want to...try doctors without borders or email/call the UN..they can always use a hand

miamicole, have you tried UNHCR site?

UNHCR dot org - there is a section on how you can help. UNHCR is specializing in helping refugees with Darfur and Afghanistan as one of the highest priorities right now. Your skills will greatly help and very much needed.

Khaled himself is an envoy to UNHCR.

miamicole, try Doctors Without Borders, they're the best outfit around.
