"The conflict has sown destruction across the country, killing tens of thousands of people and robbing millions of their livelihoods and their homes. Sudan, for me and for millions of Sudanese people, is not a story to analyse; it is our past, present and future on this planet."
"What we need is a ceasefire that not only stops the fighting but also guarantees safety, protection and access to basic services for all Sudanese people. A political process should then be launched that encompasses all political actors and empowers the Sudanese people to participate in a new governance system."
"The war in Sudan came on the tail of 30 years of a brutal regime that employed various tactics to maintain control over the country, including ethnic violence and genocide in Darfur, the Nuba Mountains and other parts of the country."
"The uprising was a massive revolt that essentially deposed a crumbling dictatorship. What followed was a botched transition that failed to deliver on people's hopes for a number of reasons."
The conflict in Sudan, which began on April 15, 2023, has resulted in widespread destruction, loss of life, and displacement. A ceasefire is essential to ensure safety and access to basic services for all Sudanese. A political process must involve all actors and empower the people to establish a new governance system. The war follows decades of oppressive rule, with a significant uprising in 2019 that deposed the dictatorship. However, the transition has been unsuccessful due to disunity among opposition parties and a lack of recognition for grassroots movements.
