Promoting Sustainable Peace in Sudan through Post-Conflict Justice and Reconciliation
This Concordis Paper is based on the content of a consultation held in the UK in March 2007, the goal of which was to consider Sudanese approaches to peace-building through post-conflict justice and reconciliation. In other states in Africa - South Africa and Rwanda among others - transitional justice mechanisms have played a central role in post-conflict reconstruction. Participants considered the examples of numerous ‘experiments’ of this nature to inform their discussion about the Sudanese context. In turn, the lessons learnt from African and international experiences fed into their reflections and conclusions about the most appropriate approaches to the pursuit of justice and reconciliation in Sudan.
