Dominos Remnant Services, DRS: PROJECTS URGENT NEEDS AND PRIORITY: The faces that appears in this pictures are neither Victims nor Rebels
Victims and Rebels: by (Dominofrank) by Francis Suleiman
Violence against women and girls is a global epidemic. In Chad and Sudan women and girls face possible danger of rape or assault, women and girls are constantly mutilated for trying to flee abuse in their homes, on their way to Wadi in search of water, or in search of firewood and daily means of livelihood. Rape of women and girls was rampant. Their husbands, fathers and male child killed, they fled, hid, fought and joined the rebellion, for security, protection and revenge. The assault and attack is reduced or almost over now. They have been refused acceptance in their own communities by the same community they fought to protect, they are called ‘ devils’ and ‘daughters of Satan’, ‘women and ladies without honor’ Where are they hiding now? What are they doing now? How could they be helped to gain back their dignity? They are clandestinely sharing their stories about how to end this horrific and widespread human rights crisis and unleash the full potential of half their nation’s population. Who will listen to their stories? This research is working to stop attacks against girls on their way to school, reduce trafficking in women and girls, end violence in the home and rape as a weapon of war. When women and girls thrive, societies are more likely to prosper economically, reduce rates of HIV and AIDS, decrease child and maternal mortality, and have more participatory and democratic governments. Some Congress is now considering the International Violence against Women Act (H.R. 4594/S.2982), which addresses these concerns and support solutions.
It is true that the cultures in North East Chad is a difficult one to penetrate, more so when it has to do with women and girls. In my work with the child soldiers in North east Chad, I discovered that women, and teenage girls seriously assaulted, violated and dehumanized by the Zhaghawas tribal rebel group, this led to the clandestine registration of young girls, teenager and even mothers and grandmothers and those widowed by the Zhaghawa rebel group, into the FUC rebel group for protection and probably revenge. Since the accord between the government in Libya, November 2006 and the announcement in Chad 2007, to end the rebellion and the recruitment of rebels by the FUC, Jesuit Refugee Service in collaboration with UNICEF and other partners have reunified and reintegrated over 229 male child soldiers. What of the Females? Are they not humans? Why is it that nobody is asking? Why is it that nobody is doing anything to help them regain their dignity? Why has any of the humanitarian Organization not made any attempt even up till this moment with the female child soldiers? Were their rights and dignity not violated? Are they happy in their present hiding conditions rejected by families and friends? Should humanitarian actors be reminded that there were female teenage rebels or victims? Should they also be reminded that they are human beings and deserve to be treated equally with the boys, regardless of culture, tradition and religion, that they were never reunified or repatriated like their male counterparts? Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere." -Martin Luther King, Jr
What is their present status? Are they happy where they are hiding, rejected by families and friends? Are they happy taking drugs, or married to former rebels to remain in the military because they have no other options?
Archbishop Francis Chullikatt, permanent observer of the Holy See at the United Nations, "contributes to the respect for human life and the observance of all human rights and fundamental freedoms."
"Religions promote reconciliation by impelling persons to move forward in a spirit of mutual cooperation," he appealed for peace, "which is not merely the absence of conflict but the harmonious coexistence of individual citizens within a society governed by justice."
I am greatly shocked beyond bone marrows, which not only the culture and religion of the people here discriminate against the females but even international humanitarian organizations. Since I began this initiative, on the research to seek out and identify these victims and rebels, I have been threatened by different elements; from the community in Guerida Chad, from different NGO, s even my own colleagues have advised me to kindly abandon this sensitive issue for now. "The most essential factor is persistence - the determination never to allow your energy or enthusiasm to be dampened by the discouragement that must inevitably come.” - James Whitcomb
My response is, ‘I have only one life to live, I am ready to lose it once, provided I lose it in a painless state‘. Martin Luther king Jr, stated that “If you have nothing to die for, then you have nothing to live for”. I have survived other dangerous missions and territories and God would surely see me through this and bring relief to these victims through this research some day.

I am ready to take some concrete steps toward becoming a female right activist, a Peace advocate or peace specialist with a difference, by 1. Creating awareness to prevent recruitment of Girl child soldiers.2 Help victims reintegrate with dignity into their communities without fear or shame and contribute to the sustainable development of their societies. I have the confidence, resources and energy to know it is what I want to do and what I am capable of doing.
How?
I have clandestinely met face to face and discussed with over 60 out of the supposed 150 women who fought alongside the Front Unite pour le Changement (FUC) these does not include the number of girls too young to carry gun or women too old to fight.
After 13 years of working in post conflict and conflict situations, I have the knowledge to effectively confront violent conflict – be it ethnic, social, political, religious, or economic – through learned mediation, negotiation, facilitation, social entrepreneurship, leadership, and societal transformation techniques and a clearer understanding of the dynamics of contemporary conflicts.
