Waging Peace
ABOUT WAGING PEACE: Waging Peace helps Sudanese diaspora, community and women’s groups, asylum-seekers and refugees from Sudan to build meaningful lives in the UK. We’ve stood alongside the UK Sudanese community for over 20 years.
Our vision is a Sudanese-British community leading fulfilling lives, and contributing to local and national life in the UK while working for an inclusive, diverse, and peaceful Sudan.
Our USP
We occupy a unique position as a service provider for the Sudanese diaspora and a trusted 'critical friend' to a wide range of individuals and organisations operating in the Sudan policy and practice landscape. We act as a 'hub' for: advice and information, provision of support to Sudanese diaspora; in-depth, non-partisan cultural and political insight and understanding; expert opinion; developing links and facilitating dialogue.
Our Values
Integrity - We STAND UP and persevere. Our commitment to Sudan is evidenced by long-term, authentic engagement and action.
Trust - We’ve built trust by standing and working with, not abandoning, Sudan and its people.
Empowerment - Power with. We support and encourage each individual to fulfil their potential.
Neutrality - While we are committed to fighting for universal human rights, we believe there are Sudanese solutions to Sudanese challenges.
Transparency - We are deeply committed to working collaboratively with individuals and organisations, seeking feedback and consultation wherever possible.
Compassion - We are guided by love and held by boundaries. We seek to do all that is possible, and sometimes more, whilst knowing our limits.
