The participants will subsequently train others in the counties who will be involved in the elections process, with UNMISS providing the funding,\u201d she said. \u201cWe are training civil society organizations, targeting neutral bodies. We do not train members of political parties.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><b>Participants call for extended training<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Marial Alual Bak, a participant in the elections management workshop, praised the training but recommended additional sessions to fully understand all information related to elections and civic education.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe training is really useful, but we lack information due to the short duration of the workshop. I am looking forward to more extended training sessions that last several days so we can delve deeper into election-related topics,\u201d Alual said.<\/p>\n<p>Marko Madut Wol, the Executive Director for the Christian Action for Development &amp; Support (CADS), emphasized their commitment to acquiring sufficient information to actively participate in the upcoming elections.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe aim to gain extensive information to actively participate in the elections in Northern Bahr el Ghazal State and South Sudan,\u201d Madut said. \u201cWe are also prepared to train civil society organizations, women, youth groups, and other stakeholders.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The training, attended by more than 25 participants, is funded by the United Nations Mission in South Sudan\u2019s Electoral Department.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/south-sudan\">South-Sudan<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; South-Sudan.
