Sudanese mutual aid networks step in as state collapses
Original: How the war in Sudan is teaching society to govern without the state https:// wagingnonviolence.org/2026/09/ sudan-mutua
With Sudan's war having destroyed state infrastructure and basic services, mutual aid networks have stepped in to fill the gaps, providing food, care and coordination where government institutions no longer function. The piece argues that Sudanese society is effectively learning to govern itself without the state, and observers are pointing to these grassroots structures as a striking example of resilience amid civil war.
Why now: Sudan's devastating civil war continues to draw attention to how civilians are surviving and organizing without functioning state institutions.
