Development in South Sudan is the foundation for sustainable peace
In 2005 a peace agreement put a stop to the conflict between North and South Sudan. After that restoration and development was able to start in the deprived southern part of Sudan. This process is taking longer than expected. When no development occurs at all that could lead to reigniting the conflict. The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) has therefore made money available to quicken development. The approved project proposal which was created by ICCO and Kerk in Actie contributes to this.
Attention for female circumcision in Sudan
In the northern part of Sudan nine out of ten women have been circumcised. Its most harmful form (infibulation) is most prevalent. The Sudanese organisation SNCTP (Sudan National Committee on Harmful Traditional Practices) fights for the abolishment of traditional practices. They endanger women's and children's health. Moreover, SNCTP is going to try to set up a centre for psychosocial support for victims of violence, with ICCO's financial aid.
Educational programme for accessible primary education in Sudan
In 2006 the Dutch Donor Forum was set up to support the implementation of an education programme in Sudan: Support for basic education in the Upper Nile State. ICCO, Oxfam Novib, Foundation Dark and Light and the Dutch Embassy in Sudan support the programme financially. The activities which were set up in 2007 have gotten a follow up, from 2008 to 2010.
