Sudan Consultations 2009: Conclusions and Summaries

Following 14 months of intensive negotiations with the European Commission Delegation to Sudan, in December 2008 we were awarded a grant for a two-year peacebuilding programme to address tensions and potential threats to the implementation of the CPA.  The project is focused on the central area of Sudan where North and South border each other and includes a series of low-profile, unofficial consultations and conferences to enable influential figures from all concerned parties to work together in an environment conducive to constructive engagement, of which so far three consultations have been completed.

We ran a consultation entitled De-escalating Conflict, Confidence-Building and Conciliation in Juba, Sudan in March-April 2009. A one-page summary of the consultation can be downloaded here.

We ran a three-day consultation entitled Ensuring Stability in Sudan: the Interim Period and Beyond in Nairobi, Kenya in May 2009. A one-page summary of the consultation can be downloaded here.

We ran a three-day consultation entitled Systems for Effective Regional Relations - Ensuring Stability around the Abyei Area in Nairobi, Kenya in July 2009. A one-page summary of the consultation can be downloaded here.
