- Its wounderful to know that the committee will focus on Northern Uganda Conflict this minutes next week. Does it give feedback to this forum also? how does one foster collaborations with the party working groups to share perspectives from grassroots, i mean a real situations within the IDP camps with the party groups? among the party groups do we have sectors or clusters groups dealing with women, children, youths, etc on issuess of advocacy for peace and conflict resolutions. ?
Thank you very much
Pamela.
