Description of Saferworld and Sudan programme

Saferworld is an independent non-governmental organisation that works to prevent and reduce violent conflict and promote cooperative approaches to security. We work with civil society, governments and international organisations to encourage and support effective policies and practices through advocacy, research and policy development, and through supporting the actions of others.

Saferworld has been working in Africa since 1997, with a primary focus upon East Africa and the Horn region. We have well-established programmes in Kenya, Uganda, Somalia and South Sudan. In addition, Saferworld supports regional and international conflict prevention and security processes. Saferworld headquarters are in London, with offices in Nairobi, Kampala and Juba.

Although Saferworld has done work on conflict and security issues related to Sudan in the past, we do not currently have a presence in country. We have been developing initial scoping and analysis work on conflict and security issues in Sudan, on the premise that both Sudan and South Sudan need to address their conflict and security challenges if either country is to develop long-term peace and stability.
