Joseph Kony is one of the world's worst war criminals, and I call on my leaders to support the international efforts now led by the United Nations and African Union to arrest him and his top commanders, bring the child soldiers home, and restore lasting peace. See FULL PLEDGE

Pledge your support


YES, I participated in Cover The Night

Following the launch of KONY 2012, the United Nations and African Union announced an ambitious new plan to arrest Joseph Kony, protect civilians, and restore communities affected by LRA violence. But it will only work if world leaders choose to follow through by declaring their support and providing the necessary resources. Specifically, we are calling on world leaders to:

  • Expand communications networks and other programs that help warn communities of LRA threats and provide opportunities for LRA abductees to escape and return safely to their families.
  • Provide the African Union effort with the logistical support needed to arrest Joseph Kony and his top commanders and protect civilians.
  • Engage directly with African governments to ensure Kony and his LRA forces cannot exploit remote areas or political discord to find safe haven anywhere in the region.

This June, the UN will meet to discuss their strategy, and we’ll be there to deliver your signatures.

ENGAGE YOUR LEADERS

Bringing an end to LRA violence will require international collaboration, so we are asking our leaders to take action. Sign the pledge and ask others to do the same. We will deliver your signatures at the meeting of the United Nations Security Council in June. Find out more about the strategy.

Before the UN Security Council, we are asking these six influential leaders to commit new resources and make a public statement to champion the United Nations and African Union efforts to end LRA violence.
