We lobbied Congress and the President for passage of
the Sudan Peace Act and public recognition of the plight of the Southern
Sudanese. By letters, e-mails, phone calls and meetings, we address issues
such as the need for our government to monitor the situation in Sudan
related to human rights abuses, adherence to the tenets of the Peace
Agreement signed in May 2004 and to implement the Comprehensive Sudan Peace
Act provisions as needed.
We joined in a campaign to get a Resolution through
Congress to urge the UN Security Council to take stronger actions in
demanding the government of Sudan end the genocide in the Darfur region. We
endeavor to inform the general public through advocacy events, speaking
engagements, and involvement of the media. We post periodic updates and
requests for action to this web site and provide E-mail "Alerts."
We seek to avoid a South-South civil war by encouraging
Sudanese factions to resolve their differences through reconciliation using
methods proven by the New Sudan Council of Churches.
In an effort to be effective in the post-conflict
reconstruction period, SAAF seeks the best way to work with the Sudanese to
rebuild South Sudan.
Take action for
Sudan. |
