This bill, the Equal Rights and Access for the Women of South Sudan Act, requires that U.S. activities in South Sudan relating to governance, post-conflict reconstruction and development, police and military training, or refugee relief and assistance support the human rights of women and their full political, social, and economic participation. The bill includes specific requirements, such as including women's perspectives in policymaking, promoting women's representation in government, channeling assistance to local women's organizations, providing support for women's education and healthcare, and ensuring the protection of women refugees and displaced persons. The bill also requires the President to report annually on the progress in implementing these requirements.
