Resolution I.7

The Plight of the People of the Sudan, Rwanda and Burundi

This Conference, expressing its horror at the human disaster in the Sudan and Rwanda, urges that:

(a) the Episcopal Church of the Sudan be encouraged to establish a dynamic network of reciprocal communications with government bodies, sympathetic Muslims, and non-governmental organisations, including the All Africa Conference of Churches, the Anglican Consultative Council, the Primates of the Anglican Communion, the Anglican Observer at the UN, and specialised organs of the UN and the UN Security Council;

(b) the member Churches of the Anglican Communion find ways to help provide technology, equipment, vehicles and administrative support in order to make publicity about and response to the urgent situation in the Sudan, Rwanda and Burundi possible;

(c) the member Churches of the Anglican Communion contribute as generously as possible of expertise, labour, money, and material goods to aid in necessary rebuilding of these nations on all levels; and

(d) help be sought from existing organisations whose mission is the facilitation of peace processes, to aid in the implementation of this resolution.
