“After decades of war and displacement, Southern Sudan is being built up virtually from scratch and it needs the support of the rest of the world — right now and for the long-term. Genuine peace and stability will only come when people have access to basic rights and services.”
- Susan Purdin, the International Rescue Committee's Sudan country director, in a statement released today by the IRC and four other aid agencies as world leaders gather for a UN-organized Sudan summit in New York.
