Latest from CISP - October 2023

The Roadshow, which marked the beginning of a series of six events that would unfold over the three-year duration of the Pro-PAZ project,  featured the active participation of 20 artists and groups hailing from the cities of Maputo, Beira, Chimoio, and Gondola. These artists and groups took center stage, performing in front of an audience of 3,000 spectators, a significant portion of which comprised young and very young people, speaking and addressing the central themes of peace, national unity, reconciliation, and the value of differences and the social and civic commitment of artists.

In Sudan, the prolonged humanitarian and political crisis, further escalated by the violent clashes between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) that erupted last April, is profoundly affecting human rights, particularly in terms of access to healthcare, nutrition, and food services. As the conflict is currently concentrated in urban areas, particularly in the capital Khartoum, many people at risk of being without water and food have fled from the urban centers to rural areas in the southeastern part of the country.
In this context, CISP has recently initiated a project in collaboration with the local healthcare system to improve the nutritional status and food security of families with malnourished children, as well as pregnant and breastfeeding women.
