The Centre for Research and Development concluded a capacity building workshop on women participation in public life in Maban County last week.
The workshop was organized in Jendrasa camp for Blue Nile refugees in Maban County of South Sudan. Around 30 women attended the event.
The Research and Development Center started to work in Blue Nile State since 2006 in collaboration with civil society organizations in order to raise awareness among communities.
The Khartoum government closed the centre and confiscated its property after fighting broke out against the Sudan People’s Liberation Army-North in September 2011.
