While in Kauda, the delegation visited schools where humanitarian organisations are implementing a school feeding programme \u2013 a top priority identified following an assessment in the end of December 2019. School supplies for 800 children were also delivered as well as non-food items, Son\u2019s statement says<\/p>\n

Sudan INGOs Steering Committee<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Sudan INGOs Steering Committee \u2013 a coordination mechanism that includes all international non-governmental organisations aiming to coordinate with government, UN agencies, and other actors \u2013 has welcomed the initiative of PM Hamdok\u2019s visit to Kauda.<\/p>\n

In a press statement yesterday, the committee said: \u201cThe visit comes at critical juncture of Sudanese history and [represents a] brave turn in the path of confidence and trust building that contributes to lasting peace and stability in Sudan, equitable treatment of Sudanese people, and respect for their human rights.<\/p>\n

\u201cSince the eruption of conflict in South Kordofan (Nuba Mountains) and Blue Nile in 2011, areas under the control of SPLM-N suffered a humanitarian siege by the previous regime that led to worsening of the humanitarian situation and increasing the suffering of the Sudanese citizens in these areas.\u201d<\/p>\n

The committee says that PM Hamdok\u2019s visit \u201copens new windows for humanitarian and development organisations to start their programs and activities in those areas to relieve suffering of war affected people, and participate in moving towards long term developmental programs as a building block for sustained and long lasting peace.\u201d<\/p>\n

The committee says it \u201cappreciates the courage and brave actions of the Sudanese leaders both of the transitional government and SPLM-N for taking this step which will also open a window for social peace and healing of the social cohesion and fabric teared by war.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
