Event announcement: Sudan Crisis: Saving Memory, Preserving Futures

On 30 May, partners from Sudan Memory and the Hussein Shariffe project join with journalists, writers, activists, cultural and NGO practitioners, and political commentators, to explore in a public panel and open forum how our own and similar projects can sustain experiences and memories of shared cultures, and provide platforms from which to contest ongoing violence. The event begins with presentations from Sudan Memory and the Hussein Shariffe project, alongside a short film from the Sudanese Women’s Museum in Darfur. A round table with invited panellists is followed by open discussion. All participants are warmly invited to join us for a reception with light refreshments after the event.
