EAC’s Overview
EAC is an independent, international non-profit organization headquartered in London, with a regional office in Khartoum. It works in partnership to promote human rights and strengthen regional and international cooperation in support of sustainable peace and stability.
EAC’s Mission
In pursuit of its mission to address the root causes of instability and migration, and to foster societies built on security, stability, and human rights, the Centre has been active in Sudan for over a decade, engaging with political, official, and community actors. During this time, it has produced a substantial body of research on Sudan’s recurring conflicts since independence, examining their causes, attempted solutions, and outcomes.
Key studies include:
- Sudan: The Current Conflict in a Historical Context (2023), which explains the root causes, conflict dynamics, and key actors
- The Journey of Sudanese Political Parties from a Political Psychology Perspective (2024)
- The Competitive Behaviour of Political Parties Seeking Power (2024)
- The Impact of the Current War in Sudan on Shaping a New Political Reality (2025)
- History of Peace Initiatives and Agreements in Sudan (2024)
A Constructive Contribution Toward Sudan’s Future
Recognising the Centre’s limited mandate for direct mediation, we are honoured to share for your kind consideration a summary of these studies as a constructive contribution to lasting peace, stability, and democratic transformation in Sudan. We are confident that the findings and recommendations will provide valuable insights and serve as a basis for meaningful dialogue among decision-makers and partners committed to Sudan’s future.
Key Findings on Sudan’s Instability
These studies converge on several core drivers of instability:
- Fragmented political parties and entrenched undemocratic practices have blocked the path to sustainable institutions.
- Parallel armed groups, especially the Rapid Support Forces, threaten non-Arab communities and national stability.
- National security remains weak, contested, and undefined.
- Peace efforts lack Sudanese leadership and are undermined by destabilising foreign interventions.
Centring Sudanese Aspirations
Most importantly, the aspirations of the Sudanese people must be taken into account. These are embodied in their rejection of the return of the Rapid Support Forces and its allies, the interference of the UAE, and all other foreign involvement in their affairs. They are consistently expressed through organised movements and global mobilisation aimed at ensuring their voices are heard directly by decision-makers worldwide.
