How did Sudan’s hopes for democracy spiral into the devastating conflict unfolding today? After the 2019 revolution that ousted Omar al-Bashir, Sudan’s journey toward democracy seemed within reach. The Juba Peace Agreement offered a glimmer of hope, but Sudan’s deep-rooted challenges ultimately led to a devastating turn toward conflict.
Join Heba Bawaieh, Dr. Paul Williams, and Professor Milena Sterio as they trace Sudan’s path from the ousting of Omar al-Bashir to today’s devastating conflict. They’ll unpack the transitional government’s challenges, the 2021 military coup, and the violent power struggle between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and Rapid Support Forces (RSF).
This episode explores the promises of the Juba Peace Agreement, the challenges of civilian-military power-sharing, and international efforts to mediate peace. It also examines the lessons Sudan’s journey offers for global peacebuilding. Music credit: 🕰️ Mystery Music (No Copyright) - "Signal To Noise" by @ScottBuckley 🇦🇺
