Listen to the voices of women from the IGAD region calling for peace in Sudan. Since the war began in 2023, countless lives have been lost and millions displaced, but #Sudan is not forgotten. Watch, share, and stand with Sudan: youtu.be/0YOVFh1cdZA?si=Xyejโฆ #Peace4Sudan #StandWithSudan #WomensMonth #Women4Peace #Women4PCVE

Reflecting on last weekโs #IGADDigitalRealities conference, we remain inspired by the powerful dialogue on digital inclusion, safety, and peacebuilding.
Women and youth from across the region brought forward bold ideas shaping a safer, more inclusive digital future.

Tonight, as we mark the #IGADMediaAwards2025, we celebrate the storytellers who are shaping and boldly rewriting the future of the IGAD region.
From Sudan to Uganda, Kenya to Ethiopia, Djibouti to South Sudan, Somalia to Eritrea, we honour not just journalism, but the women and men who use their craft to speak authentically, powerfully and fearlessly for the voiceless.
My heartfelt appreciation to the Government of Ethiopia, and to Prime Minister H.E. Dr. Abiy Ahmed, for graciously hosting us and providing the support that made tonightโs event possible. And to all our partners, thank you for walking this journey with us.

Had the honor to have Mr. Giovanni Dionisi, First Secretary @ItalyinEthiopia, join us for the opening ceremony of the Regional Training of Law Enforcement Officers on Rule of Law and Human Rights in P/CVE. In his remarks, he highlighted that the training reflects the kind of partnership the Government of Italy seeks to strengthen with IGAD and its Member States, one rooted in promoting the rule of law, a core democratic value, and advancing peace and security across the region. @LucaCarpintieri #PCVE #RuleOfLaw #HumanRights

The Leadership Academy today facilitated a Regional Webinar convened by its Cohort II Alumni, bringing together hundreds of young people from across the continent to amplify youth engagement in the peace and security sector.
Delivering the keynote address, ILA Director @DrKinyanjui commended ILA alumni for organising such a critical forum, saying such initiatives greatly amplify and complement the Academyโs work. He pledged the Academyโs unwavering support for Alumni initiatives.
@IGADYouthEnvoy Sam Ogwal outlined the measures that #IGAD has put in place to streamline youth involvement in peace and security. He underscored the importance of such regional forums as part of a collective effort to transform the region.
In a clear call to action, the youth presented a declaration that, among other priorities, urges meaningful youth inclusion, particularly in efforts to address the ongoing #Sudan conflict.
