Sudan is at war and the international actors have moved out, but peacebuilding work is still ongoing, as Concordis’ CEO, Peter Marsden, explains.
Why is peacebuilding important?

Increasing the Size of the Pie
At Concordis, we believe in the power of increasing the size of the pie to create new opportunities and resources for all parties involved in a conflict. By focusing on collaboration and creative solutions, we can help grow the pie and benefit everyone involved.
