#KeepEyesOnSudan Yesterday marked the 1 year of #Sudan War. We gathered to commemorate the victims; to reveal the truth about this unjust war and worst humanitarian crisis in human history; to celebrate the resilience and bravery of #Sudanese people; and to Stand #UnitedforSudan
@ziadachkar This is also the conclusion I've come to, and I'm struggling. All the tech and policy in the world won't (and hasn't) overcome the fundamental question: Is it worth it *to us* to intervene? In all the current atrocities worldwide, the answer is clearly no. So...what do we do?

CRSV is not inevitable. Grateful to @USIP & partners for convening policymakers, practitioners, scholars, & survivors to strengthen global support for survivor-centered & trauma-informed services, justice & accountability, and evidence-based decision-making.
Very thoughtful piece from Max Pensky at @BinghamtonIGMAP on the use of the word genocide, and the emotional hierarchicalization of atrocity crimes
