This Annual Review contains stories of our work from summer 2024 to autumn 2025.

On the global stage, a challenging time for those of us who value peace and world order. But quietly, locally, and very much unsung, scores of peacebuilders are preventing violence, resolving conflict and changing the economic landscape, even as wars rage. These stories give a genuine cause for hope.

Borderland governance is an ongoing process. Cross-border dynamics require continual management, and local borderland agreements are an integral feature and essential component of this.

The 2024 agricultural season in South Darfur marked a remarkable recovery, with harvests reaching 70-95% of pre-war levels across 14 localities where Concordis supports peacebuilding​​. There will be no famine in South Darfur this year as a result. This report looks at the success of the harvest and peacebuilding in the region.

The Concordis’ team and our network of 220 Community Peacebuilders continued to work for peace in South Darfur throughout the current war in Sudan. Whilst the world focussed on the two lead protagonists, or ignored the war altogether, they have been transforming conflict where the war is felt most keenly.

Read about Concordis' work in 2023 and in 2024, the year of our 20^th birthday. We look at the contribution our twenty year history has made to the skillset we have, and how we are using those skills today. And we bring you stories of how we continue to find the best of humanity in the worst of situations.

For twenty years we have worked with people who live where conflict is fought and felt, helping them find workable solutions that address the root causes of conflict and contribute to lasting peace and economic development.

In this document, we will outline our vision and strategy for the next five years, as we continue and develop our work in the central belt of Africa.
