Nyon Process – Informal Dialogue between Civilian Political Forces

2 min read

Funding: Swiss Federal Department of Foreign Affairs – September 2024 – ongoing


In July 2023, Promediation and the Swiss Federal Department of Foreign Affairs (FDFA) initiated an informal dialogue platform between the main Sudanese political forces, labelled as the “Nyon process”. These meetings provided a closed and safe space for representatives of Sudanese political forces to gather in one place, strengthen trust between them and start to create consensus on the conditions of a political track of the peace process, with the goal of complementing and supporting the official initiatives. 

 

In September 2024, Promediation and the FDFA, along with the Sudanese political forces, agreed on a continuation and a consolidation of the "Nyon process", in order to keep strengthening the trust between them and try and resolve informally the main challenges related to the establishment of a political process aimed at ending the war.
