                This event coincides with the commemoration of the 67^th year since the Hiroshima atomic bombing during World War II and as such will focus on the dangers of nuclear weapon proliferation.

  March against Child solider / make Kony Famous, make him visible

In Bangalore Bangalore International Academy with NGO partner SCEAD Foundation India is scheduling a campaign against this issue where we have a rally against Joseph Kony and Indian child soldiers on 20^th April 2012 Morning 10am to 12.pm

Joseph Kony is the head of the Lord’s Resistance Army, an Ugandan Guerilla group responsible

for exploiting children as solders and many other crimes against humanity. LRA initially enjoyed public support and later turned against its supporters. Children were abducted and brainwashed into becoming soldiers and slaves, those who resisted or escaped were beaten to death by their peers. An estimation of 66,000children became soldiers and two million people have internally been displaced since 1988. Children living in nearby villages in Northern Uganda came to be known as “Night Commuters,” walking miles every night to safer locations in hope of avoiding abduction. Kony’s  aim for LRA was never particularly specific beyond the ouster of Museveniand the establishment of a new Government based on the Ten Commandments.

 

The International Criminal Court (ICC) issued a warrant for Kony’s arrest, made public in October 2005, which accused him of human rights violations that included some 10,000 murders and the abduction and enslavement of more than 24,000 children. This led Kony to make his first peace offering in May 2006 (his first public appearance in 12 years), but negotiations dragged. Ironically, the ICC warrant proved to complicate the situation, because the prospect of arrest made Kony less likely to come out of hiding.

He has not been active for the last few years but "Kony 2012" documentary created by invisible children has caused a surge in attention. This video has sensationalized the issue rather  than presenting the facts. Wikileaks says "Invisible Children" spied for Ugandan resume. Many people ask why no attention has been given to General who has caused mayhem in same magnitude. Whateverthe reason is, this whole drama has drawn attention towards treatment of children by society.

 

We may think that this problem is only in African countries , Sri-Lanka. In  India the problem is limited to child labor.But in militancy torn states like Jammu Kashmir,  Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand, Andhra Pradesh and Odisharecruitment of children as rebel or soldier is rife. They are fighting

for rebelas well as establishment. In India no study has been done about number of child soldiers. The main reason they take up arms isextreme poverty that they are facing.

According to the government officials there is no government policy or official guideline about what to do with child soldiers picked up during raid or encounters. Though they are returned to their parents, there is no direction for their rehabilitation.

 

Since not many people know who Kony is, a worldwide campaign is scheduled on 20^thof  April 2012 which is called make Kony Famous, make him visible. 

Join us , artistes, students ,journalists ,teacher, NGO, doctors, engineers, etc.

We have African Students nationals who will share their experiences followed by video presentation.
