Darfur Actors to Discuss Road Map for Peace

Khartoum, 11 July 2007 (IRIN)- The UN and African Union are to meet key regional and international actors in Sudan’s war-ravaged Darfur to seek a blueprint for peace in the region.

The meeting in Libya on 15-16 July comes days after the UN warned that violence in Darfur had displaced another 160,000 people since the beginning of 2007, and increased the number of people in need of aid to 4.2 million, or nearly two-thirds of the population.
