Darfur in The Hague for two days!
Conference, October 23-24 The Hague, Carlton Beach Hotel, Gevers Deynootweg 201
Public invitation
Dear brothers and sisters,
New Sudan Organizations Network (NSON) in collaboration with NOVIB organizing a two days conference on the “root causes of the conflict in Darfur-Sudan”.
The Conference* will be held on 23-24 October in The Hague, Carlton Beach Hotel, Gevers Deynootweg 201. The programme starts at 12.00 O’clock in booth days and end around 20.00 O’clock. The detailed programme will be posted in due time.
You are cordially invited to this important conference.
The conference will offer attendees a unique opportunity to engage with politicians from both sides of the conflict (GOS, SLM/SLA, SPLM/SLPA), diplomats, NGOs representatives, academicians and human rights activists in addition to international figures and experts. The Conference participants will be encouraged to come up with recommendations and innovate policies to address the multilayered causes of Sudan’s conflicts. For more details, please, read further information.
The goals and the participants of the conference:
As all we know that, hopes for peace in Sudan has strongly been raised a couple of months ago by the signing of an agreement between the government of Sudan GOS and The Sudan People’s Liberation Movement and Sudan People’s Liberation
Army (SPLM/SPLA). The accords could help end Africa’s longest-running civil war. The agreements settled the status of three disputed areas; the Nuba Mountains, Southern Blue Nile and Abyei, and set up post-war power-sharing arrangements.
The agreements do not, however, resolve a conflict raging in the Darfur area, where concern is increasing over the west of Sudan. In February 2003 the civil war in Darfur has started. The root causes of the bloody conflict in Darfur may already exist long time before that. Ever since the 1980s some Arab tribes from Darfur, Chad and Niger have mounted raids on villages in Darfur inhabited by the Fur, Zagawa and Massaleet tribes. Recently the situation has escalated dramatically. While their attackers are Arab (the Jangaweed militias) supported by Khartoum government, the aforementioned tribes are Muslim, but African and that another indication of the racial element of the Sudanese crisis.
A negations between the GOS and the repels of Darfur is taking place at this particular moments in Abuja\Nigeria under the auspices of the African union and the international community hopefully, it will end the current war in Darfur region.
However, we genuinely believe that a comprehensive and lasting settlement in Darfur can not be fully achieved without addressing the whole package of root causes for Sudan conflicts in general such as the lack of equal power sharing, , the inequitable distribution of wealth, dis-acknowledgment of the Sudan diversities in the aspect of culture, ethnicity, and religion.
Sudan is passing now a very curtail juncture in its history. Currently, Sudan has become the top agenda of the international community, however, we strongly believe that the responsible concern and support of the international community is definitely not sufficient without the contribution of the Sudanese themselves, therefore, we the Sudanese Diaspora (in The Netherlands) find it very important that our role has to be activated and stream lined with the efforts of the international community. This conference is a part of our very ambitious plan to maximize our input in favor of peace and sustainable development in our country
The conference will address the following major issues:
defining the political root causes behind the civil war in Darfur region try to initiate and develop the best resolutions to end the conflict and pave the way for a comprehensive settlement and lasting peace in the region.
examining IGAD`s peace agreement between the government of Sudan and SPLM as a possible role model for resolving the case of Darfur and other possible potential conflicts in other parts of the county, such as Bega in eastern Sudan and the Nubian of the far North of the country.
investigating the backgrounds of the conflict by examining the impact of the other non-political possible root causes of the conflict in Sudan in general: ethnicity, religion, culture, history and the problematic question of the national identity.
encouraging and stimulating more involvement of the Dutch government and Dutch public opinion for the favour and benefit of the peace and development in Sudan.
Stimulating and strengthening a constructive involvement of the Sudanese Diaspora in regard to the matters of peace building and sustainable development) in both pre and post conflict.

Darfur in The Hague for two days!
International Conference
October 23-24, 12.00 – 20.00 0’clock
Carlton Beach Hotel, Room 1 first floor
(Gevers Deynootweg 201)
Program
Dear brothers and sisters,
You have indicated your intention to attend the International Conference on the Root Causes of the Crisis in Darfur. In this letter we pass some more information about the programme.
The aim of the Conference is to have a genuine dialogue between Sudanese and others on the Darfur crisis and other problems of Sudan, and to come to commonly shared conclusions.
The meeting is not meant as an academic conference with lengthy papers, but as an action oriented meeting meant for dialogue and agreements. Interventions by the speakers will be brief and to the point. At several moments the audience will be involved in the discussions.
We have split up the programme into the following parts:
PART ONE
IDENTITY AND CULTURES IN SUDAN
After a warm welcome by a Sudanese and a non-Sudanese and a brief introduction to the Conference by the moderator, some speakers will be asked to focus on commonalities such as tolerance, hospitality, interdependency, intermarriage, mutual respect and recognition, conflict resolution at micro-level and other (multicultural) aspects. Reactions from the audience.
Next the non-commonalities will be focussed at. A Sudanese will be interviewed extensively, followed by a panel discussion on his statement. Reactions from the audience.
Can the negotiations and agreements reached so far between GoS and the SPLM in the South be a model to solve frictions in other parts of Sudan? Two speakers will answer this question, followed by a panel discussion and a discussion with the audience.
Dinner from 17.30 – 18.30
PART TWO
ROOT CAUSES OF THE CRISIS IN DARFUR AND POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS
Before we go into the root causes of the conflict in Darfur, the humanitarian impact of the war in Darfur will be discussed. We try to have a direct line with someone in Darfur to pass the latest news on the situation there. There is ample room for interventions by the audience.
(Sunday at noon)
We now focus on the root causes of the crisis in Darfur, with contributions from GoS, SLA and JEM, with reactions from other speakers and the audience, and special attention for the differences and similarities between the situations in the South and in Darfur.
Next we discuss possible solutions for the crisis in Darfur, again with contributions by GoS, SLA, JEM and one or two others, then to be selected. Here the audience will be involved too.
PART THREE
THE ROLE OF THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY
We begin with the role of the Sudanese Diaspora, with special reference to the situation in The Netherlands. Someone will very briefly explain the waves in the coming of Sudanese refugees in the Netherlands and the growth of contacts between different Sudanese in the Netherlands since 1999.
Then we discuss together possibilities for the Sudanese Diaspora.
After this, the role of non-Sudanese will be discussed. We expect contributions about policies and practices of the Netherlands Government (including a report about the recent visit of the Troika to Sudan), of Dutch NGOs and public opinion. Europe and the USA will also be dealt with.
Dinner 17.30 – 18.30
CONCLUSION
A The Hague Declaration on the Crisis in Darfur will be prepared and discussed with the audience.
Dear brothers and sisters,
On both Saturday and Sunday the session starts at 12.00 o’clock. Apart from some tea breaks, on both days dinner will be served. Ramadan will be respected.
As far as transport to the meeting hall in The Hague/Scheveningen is concerned, trams 1 and 9, and bus 22 all pass by it, the last station.
We are quite confident that - with the presence of so many prominent, well-informed and committed speakers who represent all angles of the present problems of Sudan (see the list below) and with an audience, which also has many committed Sudanese and non-Sudanese amongst them - the conference can become quite meaningful and successful.
It will be a pleasure to welcome you on Saturday the 23rd and Sunday the 24th,
The organisers of the NSON,
Mohamed Gamaleldin Hamid
Salih Kaki
