The Senate Foreign Relations Committee called on Susan Page, NDI’s regional director for Southern and Eastern Africa, to testify at its hearing on a comprehensive strategy for Sudan.
Page offered insight from her extensive experience in the country as well as from 10 focus group studies NDI has recently conducted, including six in Southern Sudan, two in the Three Areas of Abyei, Blue Nile and Southern Kordofan, and two in Northern Sudan.
From 2005 to 2007, Page directed the Rule of Law program for the United Nations Mission in Sudan (UNMIS). In addition to managing the UNMIS offices in Khartoum and Juba, she provided legal and constitutional advice to all parties involved in the implementation of the Comprehensive Peace Agreement.
