In this week's episode of Impact!, we turn our attention to one of the most pressing and tragic crises of our time—the unfolding famine and genocide in Darfur. We explore the causes, current conditions, and challenges to ending what many believe is a largely man-made catastrophe.
As many are resorting to eating leaves and soil, the international response to the crisis is breathtaking in its inadequacy.
New talks this month in Switzerland will aim to broker a ceasefire the ongoing conflict between the warring Sudanese military and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), as the 15-month conflict that has torn Sudan apart exacerbates the famine and has led to the largest displacement of people of any conflict in recent history.
As always, we turn our attention to what we can do by being clear and specific with oour collective intention, prayers, and practical actions. Together, we believe we can make a difference.
Suggested focus for intention holding this week
As Sudan moves dangerously towards another genocide, while the largely man-made famine affecting Darfur is expected to bring starvation to millions, we suggest holding as our main focus this week:
We will that all attending the peace talks in Geneva next week will resolve a permanent, committed end to the conflict in Darfur, including allowing effective and immediate protection for aid workers and delivery vehicles to reach all who are affected by the famine there.
Please join us in holding this.
