Thank you to our panelists HE @GilesLeverUK, @KholoodKhair, @Munzoul and Tauhid Pasha for a fascinating discussion about #Sudan and the role of the #diaspora in #advocacy and #migrant protection. @CAS_SOAS @GovernancePO

From HE @GilesLeverUK: Conversations on #diaspora engagement were more positive before the coup. Unfortunately, the diaspora is now largely deterred. There are successful examples of diaspora political #advocacy, such as #Myanmar.

Shabaka's policy brief: https://shabaka.org/roadmap-for-diaspora-engagement-in-sudan/

Tauhid Pasha: The situation is fluid and critical. IOM continues to work with #migrants in Sudan, such as Ethiopian, Eritrean, Nigerian, Chadian and Somali communities, and with #diaspora to support their nationals in third countries.
