For over 16 months, Sudan has been ravaged by war, displacing more than 10 million people and leaving tens of thousands dead. UN human rights chief Volker Türk has described the conflict as a “senseless war”. Yet, international efforts from Jeddah to Cairo to Geneva, have failed to stop the fighting. With negotiations at a standstill and the humanitarian crisis deepening, what will it take to resolve the conflict? Can the country be steered again towards civilian rule? Can accountability and the hope of seeing justice one day pave the way for lasting peace? 

Join Geneva Solutions and the Geneva Press Club for a discussion with Dr. Mohamed Salih Yassin, a key figure in the Sudanese pro-civilian coalition, Tagadum, and an expert from the UN Human Rights Council’s Fact-Finding Mission for Sudan, which will present the findings of its investigation into rights abuses committed during the war to the Council on 10 September. They will share vital insights on the path forward for a nation that has been left down time and again by international actors and is still grappling with the scars of past conflicts.
