Thank you.
I might talk later about the situation of women. Several witnesses spoke to us about the fears that women living in North Sudan are experiencing. They are still forced to follow certain religious diktats, such as wearing a veil. They have a number of concerns.
A referendum would give each side its own territory. Do you discuss this matter during the course of your forums and meetings? Do you expect a kind of mass migration back to the south of southern Sudanese currently living in the north of the country?
There is an issue that women are concerned about. They are worried because their safety is threatened. They also feel that they have been left out in some respects of the discussions surrounding the current referendum process and its repercussions. Does this question ever come up in your discussions?
