We can each write letters to our representatives in Congress or our Parliament, we can have our Schools and Universities take some action and write official letters or appeal. We can talk about this in our churches, synagogues and mosques. We can write letters to the news media. We can read more about the situation through websites like http://denial.bahai.org http://news.bahai.org What we can not do is remain silent or feel there is nothing we can do to help. Please consider some of the organizations we can write to as listed below. Thank you all UN Secretary-General Hon.

And it's always helpful to ensure that others are aware of what is going on - particularly inter-faith groups and any human rights groups you might have contact with. We're hoping that organizations, think-tanks and UN agencies such as UNESCO can be made aware of the denial of access to higher education. Tess, it would be good to express your concern to your MP.
