Expanding the Circle of Compassion

OC For Darfur planning meeting with Tim Hardy on Burma | Tuesday, Dec 8th

Hi everyone,

Our next meeting (and last one this year) for OC for Darfur will be extra special. Tim Hardy, is a Carl Wilkens Fellow with Genocide Intervention Network will be joining us in a web conference call to discuss the deteriorating situation in Burma [1].

Born and raised in Rangoon, Burma, Tim grew up under multiple repressive regimes in the country. Part of a family that championed struggles for peace, freedom and human rights in Burma, he also witnessed friends and family members disappear, face imprisonment, flee the country, and be killed, for demanding the basic human rights that every person should posses. Tim has worked with the Uganda North American Association, the Joan B. Kroc Institute for Peace and Justice, Amnesty International, and the UNESCO Chair’s Global Intergenerational Human Rights Leadership Forum.

Many of us do not feel educated enough about the situation in Burma and we are honored to have Tim shed light on this subject. Here are the meeting details.
