SSWA Stand for Sudan Webinars

SSWA organises diaspora conferences in Sudan, attended by representatives of diaspora groups and professional networks, as well as officials from different ministries, to discuss ways of increasing diaspora participation in the country’s development in different sectors. The conferences make recommendations to SSWA for programmes and initiatives to be developed and implemented.
In July 2020 SSWA started a series of online diaspora engagement and consultation events targeting the diaspora in the MENA region, Europe, and North America. These events took place as part of Prime Minister Abdallah Hamdok’s ‘Stand for Sudan’ national campaign, which calls on Sudanese diaspora around the world to contribute to support the country’s development financially during the current COVID-19 pandemic.
