Project profile — Child Protection in West Darfur - War Child 2007

Conflict in the western Sudanese region of Darfur has entered its fourth year, despite a peace agreement between the Government of National Unity and one faction of the Sudan Liberation Army signed in May 2006. Fighting among armed opposition group factions, Sudanese Armed Forces and militias persisted throughout 2006, displacing hundreds of thousands of civilians. The ongoing complex emergency in Darfur affects an estimated 4 million people. With CIDA's support, War Child Canada aims to maintain child friendly spaces in four internally displaced persons (IDPs) camps (Dorti, Ardamata, Krinding, and Riyad), near El Geneina in West Darfur, at which children and youth can access vocational training, literacy and numeracy classes, recreational activities and health and sanitation facilities.
