Webinar: Justice & accountability in Sudan - 1 year on from the Khartoum massacre
Join a discussion on what justice and accountability means for Sudan and its displaced peoples one year on from the atrocity of the Khartoum massacre, and in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic. On 3 June 2019 Rapid Support Forces (RSF) troops attacked the sit-in site in Khartoum where protesters were calling for 'freedom, peace, and justice'. They killed over 100 people, injured hundreds more, committed mass rapes, and dumped bodies in the River Nile. One year on, we are hosting a panel to commemorate this day, and all atrocity crimes in the country, in Darfur, South Kordofan, and Blue Nile, and discuss progress (or not) towards justice and accountability.
Date/time: Wednesday 3 June, 15:00-16:30 UTC+1
Panellists include:
- Bob Fairweather, UK Special Representative for Sudan and South Sudan, Foreign & Commonwealth Office
- Jehanne Henry, East Africa Director at Human Rights Watch
- Charlie Loudon, International Legal Adviser at Redress
- Richard Cockett (Chair), The Economist senior editor and former Africa editor, author of ‘Sudan: Darfur and the Failure of an African State’Bushra
- Gamar Hussein Rahama, Executive Director at HUDO Centre
- Albashir Idris, youth activist
- Zohal Ibrahim, human rights defender, survivor of 3rd June massacre
