Darfur, Sudan is being called the worst humanitarian crisis in the world today. Tens of thousands of people have died. Two million more have been forced to flee their homes and livelihoods. For these innocent civilians, living on the edge of survival, their only hope is the dwindling number of humanitarian organizations willing to risk the dangers on the ground in Darfur to provide relief. International Medical Corps was one of the first relief organizations to arrive on the scene in Darfur, and remains there to this day. Established in 1984 by volunteer doctors and nurses, IMC provides help in more than 25 countries and regions worldwide that have been ravaged by war and disaster. IMC's network of some 5,000 doctors, nurses and other health care professionals makes it one of the fastest, most effective emergency response agencies in the world. In Darfur, IMC has been providing critical emergency medical services to a target population of about 300,000. This includes operating seven primary health care centers and two mobile clinics aimed at improving access to health care, nutritional assistance, and clean water and sanitation. These facilities provide family medicine; pre-natal, maternal, and child health care; immunizations; referrals and transportation for secondary care; and health and hygiene education. IMC also has rehabilitated local health care facilities, providing medicines, supplies and health care training to local professionals. For more information visit http://www.imcworldwide.org.

  • I do find this sad, but I find it even sadder that darfur isnt mentioned alot.

  • mark456 is a dumbass, know your facts right, darfur isnt a religious clash, maybe with South Sudan yes, the population in darfur is mostly black muslims. Its more of a blacks vs arabs, and we also have to take acount that oil plays a big role in the genocide...

  • excellent video!

  • I am a Sudanese from a moslem family. Slavery & colonial collaboration in the Sudan empowered three groups: Jallaba; Baggara & Fulani for 500 yrs. Now they dominate all fields and reject truth; reconciliation & positive actions for victims. Since 1956, Sudanese governments, especially the current, claim Arabism & Islam to get more. Shame on Arabs & Moslems if they keep supporting them. The present government is just too extreme & violent. They must be stopped.

  • In the Meanwhile China Use's' 80% of Sudanese OIL!!!!!!

  • Israel, Israel, Israeli behind what you see. Started this mess against Sudan government, gave gun and money to the repel to start killing, so what do you want our government to do? Give them flowers? War started and with war a lot of mess started just like what is happening in Iraq
