Quote: Campaign to Raise the Awareness of the Comprehensive Peace Agreement and the Bill of rights of the Interim Constitution of 2005 6 February 2008- August 2008 Mindful of the great hopes with which our people welcomed the signing of the Comprehensive Peace Agreement (CPA) and their expectations that fighting and bloodshed will stop and that peace and love will return to the whole of the country; Confirming the fact that the CPA and the National Interim Constitution (NIC) are important steps towards the protection of human rights, democracy and the rule of law in Sudan; The Khartoum Centre for Human Rights and Environmental Development (KCHRED) has initiated a long-term campaign to inform the public about the CPA and the Bill of Rights in the NIC of 2005. This is done in recognition of the importance of implementing the CPA and the Bill of Rights, and in support of the principle of unity based on justice, human rights and the rights of all citizens to enjoy their constitutional rights in accordance with international standards as stipulated in article 27 of the Bill of Rights in the NIC of 2005. KCHRED, in its support for the democratic transformation of Sudan, recognises the Bill of Rights and the CPA as important documents that guarantee the rights of all Sudanese. They are also the basis for harmonising Sudanese laws with the NIC and international standards and for placing the country on the road to justice, democracy, unity and peace. In recognition of the important role of civil society organisations in the actual implementation of the CPA and the NCI, KCHRED aims through this campaign to engage all Sudanese civil society organisations and other popular sectors, and to encourage their positive participation in advancing and implementing the CPA and in securing the enforcement of the Bill of Rights. All this is based on a strong conviction that the only way to ensure free, fair and democratic elections is for such elections to be held in an atmosphere of transparency and peace. Such an atmosphere cannot be maintained without the observance of the rights and freedoms enshrined in the CPA without discrimination. We are also convinced that unity can only be built on the basis of the CPA and the NIC, and that justice and peace in Darfur cannot be achieved without realising the rule of law, and without following the example set by the CPA.
