Please join the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF) for a virtual event assessing recent progress on religious freedom conditions in Sudan.

This virtual event will highlight the significant efforts by Sudan’s transitional government to advance freedom of religion or belief since assuming office in August of 2019 and particularly since USCIRF’s previous event on Sudan in November 2020. The discussion will also highlight USCIRF’s 2021 removal of Sudan from the among the countries it recommends for inclusion on the State Department’s Special Watch List for severe religious freedom violations this year. The discussion will feature USCIRF’s Chair Anurima Bhargava and Vice Chair Tony Perkins as well as Sudan’s Minister of Religious Affairs Nasreldin Mufrih and Ambassador to the United States Nureldin Satti. The event will be moderated by USCIRF Director of Outreach and Policy Dwight Bashir followed by questions and answers from attendees.
