This week War News Radio presents an exciting new program, The Darfur Radio Project.
In “Four Corners”, DRP explores the physical and mental geography of Sudan, both inside and outside of Darfur.
First, DRP takes a critical look at how Chinese investment is playing out in the Merowe Dam Project in northern Sudan. Listen now to Laura Wang’s report.
Then, in a new series on Sudanese culture, DRP speaks to musicians both at home and abroad. Listen now to Bettina Tam’s report.
DRP also explores the conflict in the east of Sudan, which predates the violence in Darfur. Listen now to Jess Engebretson’s report.
Finally, DRP reports on how both large international NGOs and smaller grassroots organizations tackle the question of education in Darfur. Listen now to Chengetai Mahomva and Shilpa Boppana’s report.

Well, few people, almost nobody talks about Darfur inside China, mediums only cover the busy preparations for Olympics or the ongoing construction work here, but when googling Darfur, lots of recent news is targetted on China’s investment. Public always focus on foreign policies and the AK47 guns but I wonder what Sudanese people really think of it. How are they suffering/benefiting from those projects?
I hope more will be revealed later.
