Sudan's war is teaching society to govern without the state
Original: How the war in Sudan is teaching society to govern without the state
Sudan's ongoing war, which began in April 2023 between the army and the Rapid Support Forces, has collapsed state institutions across large parts of the country. In the vacuum, community groups, mutual aid networks and local committees have taken over essential functions, from running emergency rooms and food distribution to brokering local peace deals. A report by Waging Nonviolence examines how Sudanese civil society is keeping life functioning where the government cannot or will not, offering a striking example of self-organised governance in wartime.
Why now: The war in Sudan has left state institutions absent, prompting growing attention to how ordinary communities are filling the gap.
