Sharjah24 – WAM: The United Arab Emirates, United States, Switzerland, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Egypt, the African Union, and the United Nations in Switzerland have issued the following joint statement on Sustainable Peace in Sudan: Integrating Sudanese women’s perspectives, leadership and recommendations into peace and humanitarian efforts in Sudan:
"We recognise the critical role women in Sudan play as agents of peace, as humanitarians, as experts, and as pillars of their communities. Their inclusion is instrumental – and indispensable - to achieving and sustaining peace in Sudan. We must listen to, and act upon, Sudanese women’s perspectives and recommendations if we are to achieve meaningful results. We commend previous successful initiatives with Sudanese women under the auspices of the African Union.

"Inspired by meetings with a diverse group of Sudanese women civilian experts, we are committed to advancing a shared goal: to address the plight of women and children in Sudan, as well as promote their goals and address their needs across the various tracks of these talks.

"We also commit to intensifying our diplomatic efforts to protecting all civilians, especially women and children, from all forms of violence, including sexual violence in conflict. This is why, today, the delegations established a technical group that will prioritise integrating the ideas and recommendations of women in Sudan.

“We will also continue to consult with Sudanese women as part of this Aligned for Advancing Lifesaving and Peace in Sudan (ALPS) platform to amplify their voices as we work towards a future of peace and prosperity in Sudan.”
