Spanning a vast expanse in Northeast Africa, Sudan covers approximately 1.88 million square kilometers with a diverse population and Arabic as the official language. Historically recognized for its strategic location and diverse cultural heritage, Sudan's economy has been shaped by agriculture and natural resources, including oil. In recent years, the nation has been actively seeking economic diversification, focusing on sectors such as mining, agriculture, and infrastructure development. Sudan is working to attract foreign investment, foster innovation, and address historical challenges as part of its commitment to transformative growth. The nation is navigating a trajectory toward sustained and inclusive development while preserving its rich cultural tapestry and historical significance.

 

Brief presentation of UPF:

Since its establishment in 2005, UPF has been one of the most remarkable organizations working with youth in the country. We used to conduct two activities every month, our activities were almost on peace culture, women empowerment, and conflict resolution. Some of our activities were directed towards religious reforms to create peace. We carried out many awareness programs on peace culture, Conflict resolution workshops, and Combating HIV workshops.
