SUDAN: El Obied Catholic Diocese trains women on Child protection
Women Centre of Saints Peter and Paul Parish in El Obied Catholic Diocese, in partnership with Nuba Child Right Organization, is training women in Kumbur Payam of Nuba Mountains sexual and reproductive health and protection of children’s rights.
Director of the organization, Kuku Albino, says women need to know how to protect themselves from several challenges and how to protect the rights of their children in the society, Voice of Peace Radio reports.
The organization is ready to empower organized female groups in Nuba communities, he pledges.
A participant, Amira Ali, says women are now aware of bad cultural practices and many other things that females in Nuba Mountains earlier did not know.
She appeals that the workshop should involve men so that they work together for total change.
Amira calls for more days for such a workshop as many couples are having too many children without knowing how to protect them.
The workshop attracted 90 women in Kumbur Payam.
