Sudan

Thinking Peace and Humanitarian Protection from a Civilian Perspective

The war in Sudan which started on 15 April, 2023, has set off the world's largest humanitarian catastrophe. On 18 September 2025, a broad alliance of humanitarian, development and human rights NGOs, political foundations and think tanks hosted the conference “Sudan – Thinking Peace and Humanitarian Protection from a Civilian Perspective” in Berlin. The event centered on dialogue with Sudanese actors, highlighting the initiatives and resilience of Sudan’s active civil society, as well as their expectations of the international community. 
Mapping Displacement Governance - Uganda

Mapping Displacement Governance in East Africa

New Publication
Uganda's migration and displacement governance is largely regarded as progressive, extending the right to work, freedom of movement, and access to public services to refugees. However, behind this record is a system in which political imperatives, economic interests, and historical influences all tend to tug in different ways.

Perspectives Africa

Perspectives is a publication series of the Africa offices of the Heinrich Böll Stiftung. The series provides a platform for experts from Africa to express their views about issues pertinent to the democratic and sustainable development agenda in the region.

The latest edition of Perspectives "African Feminisms across Generations" is a collaboration between the Gender Focal Persons (HBF staff members who serve as resource persons on gender issues) from our four offices in Africa and the Africa Division at our head office in Berlin. The idea for the edition was born out of a strategy to collectively develop an approach to gender-related political goals that is rooted in feminist realities, thinking and narratives specific to the African continent.
