The ISC\u2019s Committee for Freedom and Responsibility in Science<\/a> actively monitors disruptions to scientific freedoms. The ISC is therefore deeply concerned by the relentless escalation of extreme violence between rival military groups in densely populated areas of Sudan. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Statement on concerns over continued escalation of extreme violence in Sudan<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Our first concern is with the people of Sudan, who are experiencing first-hand the effects of civil war \u2013 instability, displacement, trauma, and loss of life. Beyond these abhorrent impacts on the lives of the Sudanese people, this crisis jeopardizes all aspects of Sudan\u2019s science system and culture. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We would like to acknowledge the struggles and dangers faced by our Sudanese colleagues in the global scientific community, including our members, the Sudanese National Academy of Sciences and the National Centre for Research. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We support you and stand in solidarity with you, and all our colleagues around the world whose lives are under attack and who conduct scientific research in times of crisis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
