Since April 15, Sudan has been engulfed in violence between the Sudan Armed Forces and the Rapid Support Forces. The fighting quickly spread from the capital to Darfur, where reports of mass killings and ethnic cleansing echo the horrors of the 2003 Darfur genocide. Amid the continued fighting, organizations like the Sudan Conflict Observatory and the Youth Citizen Observers Network have placed a spotlight on the movement of military equipment, the destruction of property and civilian infrastructure, patterns of rapid population shifts, as well as violations of international human rights law and cease-fire agreements.

On July 28, USIP hosted a discussion that delved into the work of the Sudan Conflict Observatory, Youth Citizens Observers Network and other monitoring organizations to examine the progression of the war, efforts to address atrocities, and ways to prevent the conflict from spreading further.

The United States Institute of Peace is a national, nonpartisan, independent institute, founded by Congress and dedicated to the proposition that a world without violent conflict is possible, practical and essential for U.S. and global security. In conflict zones abroad, the Institute works with local partners to prevent, mitigate, and resolve violent conflict. To reduce future crises and the need for costly interventions, USIP works with governments and civil societies to build local capacities to manage conflict peacefully. The Institute pursues its mission by linking research, policy, training, analysis and direct action to support those who are working to build a more peaceful, inclusive world.
