On 1st October 2024, our Co-Director Professor Sharath Srinivasan attended a full-day forum focused on Sudan’s political landscape, humanitarian challenges, the impact of the war on higher education and the role of media in covering the ongoing war.
The forum, hosted by the Rift Valley Institute, the Centre for Humanitarian Dialogue and the Life & Peace Institute featured in-depth discussions on Sudan’s political dynamics, humanitarian crises, and the media’s role in covering the ongoing war. The participants also explored research on displacement and its impact on higher education in Sudan. Sharath chaired the opening session on Political dynamics and trends: Opportunities for peace. What can be done to restore peace in Sudan?
The event, which was located in Nairobi, brought together journalists, researchers, activists, NGO leaders and many other key stakeholders invested in Sudan’s Future.
