Extract:

Uganda has an advanced, articulate and organized women's peace movement. Even before the adoption of resolution 1325 (2000), the Uganda Government had previously supported the efforts of women leaders, such as Ms. Betty Bigombe, who initially led the peace talks with the Lord's Resistance Army (LRA) to end the conflict in northern Uganda. The Uganda Government also made provision for women's participation in the 2006-2008 peace talks with the Lord's Resistance Army in Juba, in the southern Sudan.
