Two Vanderbilt students “move mountains” bringing education to war-torn Sudan

A short news article about horrific atrocities happening in the remote Nuba Mountains region of Sudan first led Ryan Boyette to take a dangerous leap of faith and move to the Nuba Mountains in April 2003. Thinking that too few people around the world seemed to notice the heinous crimes happening to innocent people in this region, Boyette eventually armed himself with a special weapon— video cameras—that helped change the trajectory of the war.

This outreach also put him and his family on a transformative path that connected him with other changemakers, including actor George Clooney, who helped steer Boyette and his wife to Vanderbilt University. Today, they have a goal of improving the lives of Sudan’s Nuba people, but this time through the power of education.
