Description:
This project aims to support Tagadom, a coalition of Sudanese pro-democratic forces, by facilitating its Founding Convention. The week-long event focuses on enhancing Tagadom's transparency and legitimacy through the formal election of its leadership council. It also features workshops on key thematic issues such as security sector reform and transitional justice, allowing for discussions among a broad cross-section of Sudanese representatives. It also seeks to formulate a political negotiation position. Build Up is engaged to manage convention logistics in collaboration with Tagadom, while an event company hired through this project liaises with travel and hotel suppliers for the 600 convention delegates. The National Convention, Build Up, supports two-day preparatory meetings, one for women and youth, as the convention aims for at least 30% women and 40% youth active participation and eight post activities.

Program:
Peace and Stabilization Operations
Program Purpose:
The Peace and Stabilization Operations Program (PSOPs) is an integral component of the Government of Canada’s toolbox to prevent and respond to conflicts and crises abroad. It supports rapid, effective, whole-of-government coordinated responses to a wide range of challenges and serves as a valuable instrument for supporting stability in conflict-affected regions. PSOPs provides visible and concrete assistance in response to conflicts and crises abroad through targeted programming, the deployment of Canadian police officers (in partnership with Public Safety Canada and the RCMP) and civilian personnel, and direct support to the UN and multilateral peace operations, conflict prevention, mediation, and peacebuilding efforts.
