Inside Sudan 2 - The ‘Juba Peace Process’
Manage episode 317465447 series 3303583
Since Sudan’s independence on 1 January 1956, the country has seen numerous civil wars, interrupted only for brief relatively peaceful periods. After increasing pressure by Islamist groups, then-President Jaafar Nimeiry introduced Sharia law in the whole country in September 1983, triggering a decade-long civil war in Sudan’s South that ended with the split of South Sudan in 2011. Another region of consistent conflict has been Darfur, where a number of armed organisations have challenged the central power in Khartoum for decades, before a highly violent civil war broke out in 2003. Several peace initiatives have been initiated to establish a peaceful solution to Sudan’s conflicts – the last of which the ‘Juba Peace Process’ after the end of Bashir’s reign, that brought together over a dozen armed groups from the whole country.
