一、阅读 A Aime Baligizi is a young Congolese man who is making a difference in Africa. He uses his education and his own experiences to help others survive in areas affected by conflict. Birao is a village in the Central African Republic, near the border with Darfur, Sudan. The village is cut off from much of the rest of the world. Birao was affected by fighting between Central African rebels and government soldiers last year. Baligizi is one of several aid workers attempting to help the local people and refugees from the conflict in Darfur. Three hundred refugees now live in Birao.

He said, “We need to show them that we may be giving them food but we will not be giving it all the time. They also have to produce something for their families and the future.” When his work is done, Baligizi brings a few soccer balls to a local field to play with young children. Some of them are refugees from the conflict in Darfur. He says it is important to bring some happiness to lives affected by violence. Baligizi himself fled violence from his home in the Democratic Republic of Congo. He says he was able to study in Uganda and in Europe with the help of many people.
