The National Resilience College was honoured to welcome His Excellency Hassan Abdel-Salam Omer, Ambassador of Sudan to Malaysia, who delivered a compelling talk titled “Sudan at the Crossroads: Navigating Conflict, Humanitarian Crisis and Global Implications.” The discussion could not be more timely: as Sudan grapples with protracted violence and one of the world’s most acute humanitarian emergencies, understanding the conflict’s regional spill-overs and its resonance for global stability is essential for policymakers, security practitioners and humanitarian actors alike.
