    "content": "Hon Speaker, at the close of the five-day event yesterday, the Forum adopted the Nairobi Declaration which calls for: 1. Strengthening of efforts by ICGLR Member States and other stakeholders towards diplomatic and peace building measures aimed at resolving conflicts in the Great Lakes region; 2. Calls for Member-States to ensure that all conflicts in the region are resolved peacefully and that they will work tirelessly towards implementing the objectives of the Peace, Security and Co-operation Framework in order to attain stability and development; 3. Calls for political leaders at national, regional and international levels to support mechanisms aimed at resolving conflicts, which have adverse global impacts on economies; 4. Calls for commitments from governments at regional and international levels to work together to reduce proliferation of small arms and to improve natural resource management to curb the incessant conflicts; and, 5. Calls for the International Conference on the Great Lakes Region (ICGLR) Member- Parliaments to strengthen co-operation in peace-building initiatives to address regional conflicts. The resolutions will shortly be sent to all Member-Parliaments for consideration and implementation. In conclusion, I take this opportunity to record the thanks of the Parliament of Kenya and to the eight Member-Parliaments of the Republic of Angola; the Republic of Burundi; the Central African Republic; the Democratic Republic of the Congo; the Republic of Rwanda; the Republic of South Sudan; the United Republic of Tanzania; and the Republic of Zambia for honouring the invitation to this event in Nairobi and for their active participation in the deliberations. I thank you Hon. Speaker."
