Publication

The publication examines the challenges in implementing the Eastern Sudan Peace Agreement to which the Beja Congress (BC) and Sudanese government were signatories in 2006. The author draws a parallel between the peripherialization of the residents in the Eastern region that fueled the conflict and the resource-based conflicts in southern and western Sudan. The report concludes that while similarities exist between marginalized groups in Sudan, a political solution is more viable in the Eastern region as the BC has made a transition from rebel group to political party.
