The Third session in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, January 20 - 22 nd, 2014. This event was organised by Darfur Relief and Documentation Centre in collaboration with the African Centre for Democracy and Human Rights Studies, Darfur Bar Association, Human Rights Institute of South Africa and South Sudan Human Rights Society for Advocacy. The Forum adopted 11 (eleven) resolutions addressing an array of issues in Sudan and Republic of South Sudan.
The conflict that pits hundreds of students from Darfur and the administration of the University of Bakht Alruda in Al-Dewaim town (White Nile State) remains unresolved and threatens the future of these students. All attempts for an amicable solution of the conflict failed as the two parties assumed irreconcilable positions and refused all possible compromise solutions. The ongoing crisis started on 18 July 2017 when 1,256 students from Darfur at the University of Bakht Alruda submitted their resignations and abandoned the university campus in protest of what they described as a series of discriminatory practices, abuses and maltreatment they suffered in the hands of the university administration and the security forces in the aftermath of the Students’ Union elections

The Darfur Relief and Documentation Centre has been closely monitoring the recent decisions of the Government of Sudan (GoS) to reorganize its allied militia groups and to disarm civilians, including some government-sponsored tribal military formations in Darfur. GoS also announced its intention to disarm civilians and irregular combatants in West Kordofan State. The abrupt decision entails the prevention of the use and/or confiscation of private four-wheel-drive vehicles that are widely used in Darfur as a means of intra and interstate transport for goods and persons.
