Description

In this episode we sat down with Niemat Ahmadi, Founder and President of Darfur Women Action Group, a women-led atrocity prevention organization that amplifies the voices of those most impacted by the ongoing conflict in Sudan. Niemat details how the failure to address the long lasting impacts of the genocide in Darfur two decades ago has shaped the current crisis and atrocity risks facing civilians. She also highlights the role that civil society, particularly women and youth organizations, have played in supporting populations in Sudan. Niemat ends with a call for the international community to take concerted action to halt the violence, hold perpetrators accountable and take practical steps toward achieving sustainable peace.
