Tom Perriello: The Road to Sustainable Peace in Darfur
During Tom Perriello's 2005 visit to Sudan in the aftermath of 2004's genocidal violence, Darfuris told him they would rather go back to war than accept a peace deal that continued their exploitation and marginalization. Yet the 2006 Darfur Peace Agreement monumentally failed to address critical issues of representation and access to resources. In this video, Perriello calls for a new peace agreement; urges external actors to help the rebels develop the requisite political leadership to strengthen their negotiating position; and promotes ICC indictments of Sudan's leading genocidaires.
Author Bio: Tom Perriello is co-founder of Res Publica and Avaaz. He previously served as Special Advisor to the Prosecutor of the Special Court for Sierra Leone, and as a Yale Law School/OSI Teaching Fellow in West Africa. He has worked for the US State Department, the International Centre for Transitional Justice and others on human rights and legal reform efforts in Afghanistan, Sudan, Kosovo, Argentina, Chile, India, and the United States. Perriello holds a BA in Humanities from Yale College and a J.D. from Yale Law School. On behalf of Res Publica's Darfur initiative, darfurgenocide.org, Perriello visited Darfur for six weeks in 2005 and met with rebels and civilians to discuss prospects for peace.
