EL FAHSER, Sudan, Dec. 20 (Xinhua) -- An international conference on human rights in Sudan urged the international community to exert more efforts to improve the human rights situation in Darfur.

The conference, organized by the Sudan Human Rights Group and the Al-Jazeera Satellite Channel, was held Saturday in El Fasher, the capital of North Darfur.

A number of human rights activists in Sudan and abroad took part in the meeting, during which they discussed two working papers on impact of armed conflicts on implementing human rights in Darfur, and role of humanitarian work in peace building and resettlement.

The conference praised in its final communique what it termed "the positive steps" made by the Sudanese government and local authorities in Darfur to enact laws in line with international laws, namely in the field of children and women protection.

The conference called for promoting principles of international human rights law in Darfur through enhancing people's awareness, monitoring of violations, training experts and bringing the violators to trial.

The conference, in its final communique, urged Sudanese and international civil society organizations to boost cooperation and work together, through joint committees, to monitor and develop human rights situation in Darfur.

The conference also proposed to set up a joint committee of truth, justice and reconciliation from the Sudanese and international organizations to work out a comprehensive report on what had really happened in Darfur.

"The participating organizations in the conference pledge to work to disclose any violation of human rights in the region," the communique said.

Meanwhile, the conferees stressed importance of psychological support for families, especially children, when the conflicts are over.
