About: Montreal’s September 17th ‘Rally for Darfur’ will be an outdoor gathering with 135 minute program featuring music, visual displays, and speakers from an array of backgrounds. Because many Montrealers are not current on the situation in Darfur, there will be general information presentations as well as policy statements made by speakers. We are expecting more than 1000 attendees.
Darfuris and survivors of the Rwandan genocide, Multi-faith community leaders, NGO workers from the field, Montreal academics, politicians from the three levels of government (federal, provincial and municipal), and student activists will speak for 3 -7 minutes each. It will be a bilingual forum, bringing the city’s Francophones and Anglophones together with regards to Darfur for the first time. The event will be held in the heart of downtown, close to public transportation access. It will be peaceful in nature and open to all members of the public.
The proposed schedule is as follows:
2:15 – 2:45pm: Pre-rally music to be played while crowd arrives and settles. Several Afrobeat style musicians have been invited to perform, as well as some local Quebecois acts with human rights oriented lyrics.
PROGRAM BEGINS
2:45 – 2:55pm: Welcome to event by Coordinator Tara Tavender and introduction of key partners and sponsors of the rally. Tara will: provide a short explanation of why assembling for Darfur is important, give a brief outline of the rally’s objectives, discuss the larger ‘Global Day for Darfur’ objectives and sister events, and encourage attendees to participate and organize future activities with regards to Darfur.
2:55 – 3:10: Montreal academics – three local academics will: introduce the conflict, discuss what has been done to end the crisis at the international level, and explain why a UN force is urgently needed in Darfur.
3:10 – 3:25: NGO workers from the field – two or three NGO workers with experience in the Darfur or Chad camps will discuss: camp conditions, challenges in providing humanitarian aid, and security concerns for refugees, IDPs and relief workers.
3:25 – 3:40: Multi-faith coalition – three to four representatives from differing Canadian religious communities who participated in a country-wide interfaith initiative to lobby the Canadian government on the issue of Darfur will discuss: their activities and how they were received. They will also encourage their respective religious communities to get involved in activism and lobbying for Darfur.
3:40 – 3:55: Darfuris and survivors of the 1994 Rwandan genocide – Darfuris will present on the human realities of the conflict; a local Rwandan genocide survivor will discuss what he/she lived through in 1994, and will draw parallels between Rwandan experiences and those of Darfuris in the current conflict.
3:55 – 4:10: Politicians from federal, provincial & municipal levels of government – several high profile politicians with a history of Darfur-related advocacy will present on what Canada, Canadians and Quebecois can be doing to pressure action in Darfur at the international level.
4:10 – 4:20: Student activists – members of STAND Concordia, STAND McGill, and a francophone student organization will discuss past and present activities with regards to Darfur, and will encourage students in attendance to get involved.
4:20 – 4:30: Closing comments by Tara Tavender and announcement of formation of new ‘Montreal Coalition for Darfur’. Audience will be thanked for attending, and encouraged to get involved in Darfur activism.
