Power, people and peace: reflections from the 2025 People Power Conference

In April, Saferworld joined activists and peacebuilders in Copenhagen for the People Power Conference – a space for dialogue, solidarity and collective action. Sara Torrelles Vives, Civil Society Partnerships and Learning Adviser shares her reflections. 

Pragmatic politics doesn’t mean giving up on a more hopeful future for Sudan

Sudan is entering a new phase of the war that started two years ago, on 15 April 2023. While recent military developments – in particular, the recapture of Khartoum by the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) – may appear to be a turning point, the war is far from over. Indeed, to frame it as such would be an outrage to the many who are still at grave risk as the conflict intensifies across other parts of Sudan, especially the west and south, which have endured decades of atrocities and injustice.  

Saferworld statement: In solidarity with the people of Sudan

As the violent conflict in Sudan enters its third year, the war is far from over, with devastating consequences for the Sudanese people. An immediate ceasefire, access to humanitarian aid, and protection for frontline responders and civilians are critical to reduce the impact of the conflict.
