Book Talk with Alex de Waal and Willow Berridge: The Sudans
Join us for a conversation with Alex de Waal and Willow Berridge about their compelling book, The Sudans.
The Sudans tells the story of the African Union's efforts to make peace in the Sudans during the years 2009 to 2013. It details the work of the AU High-Level Panel, led by former South African President Thabo Mbeki, to resolve the war in Darfur, promote democracy in Sudan, steer the independence of South Sudan, and make peace between Sudan and South Sudan. It was Africa's most ambitious peace-making effort.
