STAND Launches New Website!
Published July 01, 2008 @ 12:34PM PT
As you know, the Genocide Intervention Network provides individuals and communities with the tools to stop and prevent genocide. Our student-led division, STAND, specifically works to empower students worldwide. STAND has more than 1,000 active chapters in more than 25 countries working to end genocide.
We're thrilled to announce this week the launch of GI-NET's brand new STAND website, created by the talented folks at Biro Creative and Agentic Communications.
See the site here: http://www.standnow.org.
We hope that the site better communicates what GI-NET and STAND do, and gives students an easier and more personal way to take action and connect to the anti-genocide movement. Students have been at the forefront to end genocide in Darfur, and we're excited to roll out this new website to better serve them.
And please help us out by giving your feedback here: http://www.standnow.org/feedback.
