What can anyone do about War?

Tuesday, January 26, 2010

This is a documentary about "the Multi-Country Demobilization and Reintegration Program (MDRP), a multi-agency effort funded by the World Bank and 13 donor governments, that supports the demobilization and reintegration of ex-combatants in Angola, Burundi, the Central African Republic, the Democratic Republic of Congo, the Republic of Congo, Rwanda and Uganda." A continual question about what we can actually do has come up again and again; and while that question is hard to answer with an absolute answer I wanted to post a video about  some people doing something about the results of war somewhere in the world.
