About this listen

We speak with Jehanne Henry and Niemat Ahmadi about genocidal violence, war and accountability in Sudan, from 2003 to the present. Niemat, a Sudanese activist from Darfur and a survivor, created the women-led non-profit organization Darfur Women Action Group, which advocates for the end of atrocities in Darfur and Sudan at large. Jehanne, a researcher, lawyer and lecturer at Columbia Law School and CUNY, worked for the UN Mission in Sudan and Human Rights Watch, and recently advised Sudan’s Judiciary during the democratic transition period.
