LOS ANGELES - Mia Farrow plans to begin a hunger strike next week in solidarity with the people of Darfur.

The 64-year-old actress and humanitarian says she will begin a fast of only water on Monday.

Farrow was moved to begin the hunger strike after the Sudanese government expelled international aid agencies from the country last month.

Farrow says she is calling on world leaders to end the violence in Darfur.

Her protest is part of Genocide Prevention Month, a campaign to stop genocide worldwide.
