  1. Hate Speech in Sudan: A driver of conflict and displacement

Summary

Hate speech has significantly contributed to conflict and displacement in the current civil war in Sudan and remains a key barrier to finding solutions for peace. In this working paper, Wala Mohamed explores and contextualises the nature and root causes of hate speech in Sudan. This analysis aims to equip activists and pro-democracy actors with the evidence and analysis needed to effectively address the roots of hate speech in Sudan, both online and offline.

This article is based on analysis published by the author for the Refugee-Led Research Hub Working Papers series, as part of the Kenya Evidence Platform.
