Strategic Note Outcome Progress NoteShowing data of :
2023
More women of all ages fully engage with political and economic institutions and in leadership
Despite the ongoing conflict in Sudan, progress towards the outcome has been achieved. UN Women followed the principle of intersectionality in all its supported interventions. Representation from different geographical locations in Sudan, as well as age and class were considered in the criteria for the selection of beneficiaries of UN Women supported interventions. This later provided opportunities for women from different backgrounds to engage with decision makers in key political intergovernmental organizations. The Sudanese Women Conference in Kampala - in collaboration with the AU, and IGAD - is an example. More than 460 women from form Sudan and abroad from diverse ethnic, political and age backgrounds shaped a feminist peace agenda, resulting in the Kampala Feminist Declaration outlining short, mid, and long-term peace priorities providing a unified voice for women in shaping the peace landscape. To ensure that the document captures voices of women most excluded, consultations with more than 400 IDP women and women from host communities in Sudan were conducted and intersectionality as key in the selection of targeted women.
In addition, through the technical support provided to different women-led platforms, the statements and declarations emphasized ending the war coupled with underscoring a process that is gender responsive. The statements also emphasized setting a new political, economic and social environment that is built on equality. These are all key aspects that contribute to reinforcing a mindset where decision makers - as well as communities - that want to move towards sustainable political restitution of democracy and development cannot achieve this without the full engagement of women of all demographic groups in the processes and in the institutions mandated to do so.
The Kampala declaration built on previous statements released by the platforms created with support from UN Women that reinforce participation and leadership of women for sustainable political systems and development. The declaration was then used by different women delegations in their engagements with decision makers in key political fora and meetings, such as the meeting with UN Special Envoy for the East and Horn of Africa, the briefing to John Godfrey (the US Special Envoy to Sudan) and the German Ambassador to Sudan. Following this, Sudanese women participated in a New York based roundtable entitled “African Women at the Peace Table,” focusing on regional challenges in Sudan and the Democratic Republic of Congo. In November, they joined the African Union Peace and Security Council’s Open Session, advocating for an end to the war, increased humanitarian aid, and women's meaningful participation in peace processes.
While the above-mentioned support and strategy illustrated UN Women’s role in the amplification of voices and demands of women for the restoration of peace and democracy, these efforts also contributed to strengthening the capacity of women-led organizations in influencing and leading civic-led political initiatives which can influence the course of democratic governance and peace in Sudan.
