As designers / developers we often have fast paced and busy lives… it is important to slow down and use our gifts to work o something that matters.

In support of One Day for Human Rights I am writing about the Invisible Children in Uganda. Every day children are taken from their homes and forced to join the LRA (Lords Resistance Army). The LRA raids the villages killing, raping and stealing the young men to fight in their army (as recently seen on the TV show 24 Redemption). The children are forced to flee in the night hoping to find refuge.

Invisible children helps provide that refuge, as well as medical aide and education for these children who are now homeless, as well as without a family(many of them are forced to kill their own parents by the LRA).

Please visit the sites www.invisiblechildren.com, and www.onedayforhumanrights.com it is the least we can to to simply take some time out of our busy schedules and educate ourselves about the lack of human rights in the world and what role we might play in fighting for human rights.
