As I write the last blog of mine for the semester, I think back at how much I have learned through this blog. While researching topics to be able to write about Sudan, I learned a lot about what is going on with the country. When we first started this project I did not know very much about Africa at all, but now I have a much better understanding of the country.
While writing my blogs, I did a lot of research to learn what was happening in Darfur. I did not even know that there was a conflict, let alone that it has been going on for many years. I also learned about the people that live there.
As I read others blogs, I learned about the women of Africa. I also learned about what the College of St. Scholastica is doing to help out with the Darfur conflict and what happens during the United for Africa meetings. I realized that everyone can make a difference to help the people affected by the conflict and that it doesn't matter how far away you are. One college can help 140 families.
If you haven't read past blog posts, please do so. You will realize how many things that you did not know, or you will gain an insight of the people and events that are happening.
