  • Why a Minority Rights Approach to Conflict? the Case of Southern Sudan
    briefing Why a minority rights approach to conflict? The case of Southern Sudan By Chris Chapman This briefing is aimed at decision-makers working on conflict management, peace-building, development and human rights in countries affected by conflict – whether they be officials of the government in question, humanitarian actors working for donor governments, inter- governmental organizations, local NGOs or international NGOs (the imperfect shorthand of ‘humanitarian actors’ will be used to cover all of these categories). The aim is to illustrate how the minority rights approach can be useful to the work of humanitarian actors in any conflict situation – whether it be aid distribution in a refugee camp, a reformed police force, or a new national education curriculum. For this purpose, the briefing examines the specific case of Southern Sudan. Conflict management requires a holistic approach that addresses all the causes of conflict, and the minority rights approach does not mean addressing only this aspect of conflict. However research carried out by Minority Rights Group International (MRG) has shown that governments and external actors often fail to understand the role that minority rights plays in both the origin and resolution of identity-based conflicts.1 Minority rights provides a framework for humanitarian actors to analyze, understand and address many of the complex issues behind the conflict, and if utilized by the Government of South Sudan (GoSS), can help to build peace based on the accommodation of diversity, through providing all communities with a political voice and equal opportunities to access resources. Southern Sudan provides a complex and demanding case A woman attends a peace conference between the Nuer and Dinka tribes study.

    Land in Gedarif State: Survival and Conflict Anke van der Heul Radboud University Nijmegen Land in Gedarif State: Survival and Conflict An explorative research on the influence of group identity and the Sudanese state on the land conflicts in Gedarif State and the interaction of these factors on a local level. Anke van der Heul S0308048 Master ‘Conflicts, Territories and Identities’ CICAM & Human Geography, Radboud University Nijmegen Supervisor Dr. B. Bomert Radboud University Nijmegen December 2009 Cover painting by: Abdul Moniem Shglainiee (from Gedarif State) Land in Gedarif State: Survival and Conflict An explorative research on the influence of group identity and the Sudanese state on the land conflicts in Gedarif State and the interaction of these factors on a local level. Keywords East Sudan, Gedarif State, land conflict, group identity, poor governance, land tenure, state influence. Executive Summary Many African countries alike, Sudan has experienced a range of resource-based conflicts that often result in fierce competition between different clans or groups, in ethnic fighting or even in civil war. Although considerable research in the field of the Sudanese internal conflicts has concentrated on the conflict in Darfur and the Sudanese North-South conflict, rather less attention has been paid to the conflict in Eastern Sudan. Consequently this research aimed to explore the conflict in Eastern Sudan more in depth. More precisely, the focus of this research project has been narrowed down to Gedarif State and within the margins and the context of Gedarif State this research focused on land conflicts and the influence of group identity and the state.

  • COUNTRY Food Security Update
    SUDAN Food Security Outlook Update April 2017 Food security continues to deteriorate in South Kordofan and Jebel Marra KEY MESSAGES By March/April 2017, food insecurity among IDPs and poor residents in Food security outcomes, April to May 2017 SPLM-N areas of South Kordofan and new IDPs in parts of Jabal Mara in Darfur has already deteriorated to Crisis (IPC Phase 3) and is likely to deteriorate to Emergency (IPC Phase 4) by May/June through September 2017 due to displacement, restrictions on movement and trade flows, and limited access to normal livelihoods activities. Influxes of South Sudanese refugees into Sudan continued in March and April due to persistent conflict and severe acute food insecurity in South Sudan. As March 31, more than 85,000 South Sudanese refugees have arrived into Sudan since the beginning of 2017, raising total number arrived to nearly 380,000 South Sudanese refugees since the start of the conflict in December 2013. Following above-average 2016/17 harvests, staple food prices either remained stable or started increases between February and March, particularly in some arid areas of Darfur and Red Sea states, and South Source: FEWS NET Kordofan, which was affected by dryness in 2016. Prices remained on Projected food security outcomes, June to September average over 45 percent above their respective recent five-year 2017 average. Terms of trade (ToT) between livestock and staple foods prices have started to be in favor of cereal traders and producers since January 2017. CURRENT SITUATION Staple food prices either remained stable or started earlier than anticipated increases, particularly in the main arid and conflicted affected areas of Darfur, Red Sea and South Kordofan states between February and March.

  • OSAC Crime & Safety Report
    Sudan 2020 OSAC Crime & Safety Report This is an annual report produced in conjunction with the Regional Security Office at the U.S. Embassy in Khartoum. OSAC encourages travelers to use this report to gain baseline knowledge of security conditions in Sudan. For more in-depth information, review OSAC’s Sudan country page for original OSAC reporting, consular messages, and contact information, some of which may be available only to private-sector representatives with an OSAC password. Travel Advisory The current U.S. Department of State Travel Advisory at the date of this report’s publication assesses Sudan at Level 3, indicating travelers should reconsider travel due to crime, terrorism, civil unrest, kidnapping, and armed conflict. Review OSAC’s report, Understanding the Consular Travel Advisory System. Overall Crime and Safety Situation A national state of emergency, which gives security forces greater powers of arrest, is in effect across the country. Detentions, including of foreigners, have occurred in different parts of the country, including in Khartoum. Demonstrations occur frequently and police response can be sudden and violent. Authorities may impose curfews with little or no warning. Penalties for violating curfews can include imprisonment. Crime Threats The U.S. Department of State has assessed Khartoum as being a MEDIUM-threat location for crime directed at or affecting official U.S. government interests. Crime rates increased over 2019, most likely connected to the deteriorating economic situation. Criminal activity is generally non-violent and non- confrontational. The Embassy received reports in 2019 of criminal targeting of UN personnel and other Westerners for car break-ins and other crimes of opportunity.
