[18.06.10] Sexual and gender-based violence in eastern Chad and Darfur
The Norwegian Institute of International Affairs [NUPI] has the great pleasure of inviting you to the workshop
Sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV) in eastern Chad and Darfur
The United Nations Mission in Eastern Chad and the Central African Republic (MINURCAT) has been a support mission to protect civilians, contribute to rule of law and regional peace in conflict-prone region bordering Darfur and the Central African Republic. This workshop will draw lessons from MINURCAT and the UN mission in Darfur (UNAMID) to discuss the following issues:
- What it the situation on the ground concerning SGBV in eastern Chad and Darfur?
- What type of initiatives and policies are introduced by the UN, the government and NGOs and what are the outcomes?
- What are the future prospects for reducing SGBV in the region?
For information on resent developments and consequences concerning the exit of MINURCAT, see the Policy Brief “An honourable exit for MINURCAT?”
