This month on the Sudan Radio Project, “Contention and Conviction.” We hear about the various challenges facing Sudanese on the path to long-term stability as individuals and as a nation.

First, we hear from a man living in Khartoum about his experiences as a gay citizen of Sudan. 

Next, we speak with Professor Raymond Hopkins about the effectiveness of foreign aid to East African nations like Sudan. 

Then, we hear about the work one South Sudanese organization is doing to promote HIV awareness. 

Finally, Who’s Who? A look at South Sudan’s President, Salva Kiir Mayardit.
