Sudan: Organising for Peace as the War escalates

The renewed Sudan peace effort that began in Nairobi on 17 June may be the last chance for the Intergovernmental Authority on Development (IGAD) process to set meaningful negotiations in train, says a new International Crisis Group (ICG) report. The decisive issue in negotiations will be self-determination for the South, combined with reform of the central government. ICG urges diplomatic support for self-determination as the only way to get an agreement that has a chance to maintain Sudanese unity.
