Sudan - The forgotten War

The war in Sudan has been going on for two years now. In the local media, the stolen revolution, the suffering of the civilian population and humanitarian self-help are rarely mentioned in view of the lack of international aid. Borderline-europe - Human Rights Without Borders, in cooperation with the Protestant Academy in Berlin, has organized an event on the anniversary of the outbreak of war to highlight the war crimes and human rights violations in Sudan and on the escape routes. Borderline-europe is working together with the Africa Center for Justice and Peace Studies on the documentation of human rights crimes in order to prepare a review of war crimes and human rights violations in Sudan. This brochure reflects part of our discussion on how transitional justice can be initiated.

Jahresbericht 2023: Widerstand gegen das europäische Grenzregime

2023 war kein gutes Jahr für die Menschenrechte. Kriege, Konflikte, wirtschaftliche Not und klimatische Veränderungen haben viele Menschen gezwungen, ihre Heimat zu verlassen. Gleichzeitig konnten wir eine fortschreitende Externalisierung der EU-Außengrenzen beobachten. Politisch scheint in der EU alles dafür getan zu werden, die Festung Europa zu stärken. Damit sollen möglichst viele Menschen davon abgehalten werden, Schutz in der EU zu suchen. Die Leidtragenden all dieser Entwicklungen sind, wie immer, die Flüchtenden selbst. Bei alldem können wir nicht tatenlos zuschauen. Deshalb haben wir auch 2023 kritisch beobachtet, dokumentiert, informiert und interveniert. Die Ergebnisse unserer Arbeit findet ihr im folgenden Bericht.

Deconstruct Solidarity in the EU

The European Union prides itself on the concept of "solidarity." We want to look behind the scenes of this concept and ask in this article: What does solidarity actually mean in the context of the EU-ropean asylum system? In the following, we engage with the example of the EU ad hoc relocation mechanism, used as a blueprint for the so-called Voluntary Solidarity Mechanism (VSM), to illustrate that the concept of solidarity is not only experiencing a crisis but, in our understanding, must be deconstructed and completely rethought within the EU.
