On Thursday 26 March 2026 CSPS convened a half-day workshop at Imperial Hotel, Juba, a policy Dialogue. The main objective of the workshop was to receive feedback on IDRC Project's research design on national–local linkages of peace in South Sudan, through discussion that is grounded in how peace processes have functioned and where civil society engagement has succeeded or failed. The meeting was attended by civil society, faith-based, national and international NGOs and diplomatic missions representatives.
