1000 days ago we woke up to my then 3 year old asking me if I could turn that horrible sound (of gunshots and explosions) off, because it’s scary. My heart goes out to everyone especially those parenting while surviving this war in Sudan and elsewhere. May it all end everywhere.
What our latest issue on Sudan makes clear: elite capture of governments must be dismantled in a peaceful way, not just with grassroots women's movements but with women forming the backbone of of all peace processes #sustainablepeace #UNSCR1325 #KeepEyesOnSudan
Dr. Maryam Sadiq Al Mahdi shares insights on the progress since #UNSCR1325 and the challenges Sudanese women still face in driving peace and governance.
🌍 “Women carry the experience and the will now they must be given the space to lead.”

For those following Sudan, take a pause and read @Parker_Bilal Jamal Mahjoub's new piece in @Transition_Mag. Like "A Line in the River" it's an insightful blend of history, memoir, and analysis. transitionmagazine.fas.harva…

I wrote this essay in the current Sudan issue of Transition Magazine titled "The Politics of Hunger" which argues that the current hunger crisis has been decades in the making. It begins with Nimeiri and looks at US engagement over the decades.
