Sudan's Women Call for Review of Five-Party Process After Addis Talks

Amsterdam / Kampala - The success of meetings led by the five-party mechanism on Sudan's political process depends on reviewing how the process has been managed, according to leaders of Sudanese women's and civil-society groups. Their comments, on Radio Dabanga's Kandakat wa Mayarem programme, follow a boycott by civil forces of meetings in Addis Ababa in late July. They called for the reasons behind the boycott to be addressed, consultations to be broadened and that women be guaranteed meaningful participation at every stage of the process.
