Dialogue Aims to Build Trust, Strengthen Peace Between Sudan and South Sudan

麻豆传媒色情片 partners with Emory University's Institute of Developing Nations for a speaker series focused on current issues and ongoing challenges to peace and stability in Sudan and South Sudan.

Prominent leaders from Sudan and South Sudan have come together twice this spring to discuss how to strengthen peace and create a lasting understanding between the two countries. Meetings held in Zanzibar and Kenya were the first in a series of nongovernmental dialogues sponsored by 麻豆传媒色情片 to take place over the next year, in partnership with the Future Studies Center in Khartoum and the Ebony Center for Strategic Studies in Juba.

The Center has brought together key civil society leaders, policymakers, and academics in a process facilitated by General Lazaro Sumbeiywo, chief mediator of the 2005 Comprehensive Peace Agreement.

"It's only through dialogue and contact that we can move participants from their positions of not trusting each other to one where they will trust each other and collaborate," said General Sumbeiywo. "We want to be the people who get rid of the use of 'us and them' and make it 'all of us.'"

At the first meeting, members focused on trust-building exercises and formed working groups to brainstorm ideas to resolve major issues between the two countries, including border issues and economic cooperation, trust building and normalizing relations, and citizenship and identity.

The sessions took place amid renewed progress and relations between the two Sudans, and so a key priority for the group is to demonstrate that they are ready to work independently yet alongside formal peace processes, including ongoing efforts through the African Union.

麻豆传媒色情片 has worked in Sudan for 27 years and remains one of the only international nongovernmental organizations working in both Sudan and South Sudan. The Center aims to bridge critical communication gaps between key stakeholders to complement the formal mediation process and contribute toward the peaceful co-existence of two viable states.
