"Promoting natural resource conflict management in an illiberal setting: Experiences from Central Darfur, Sudan," written by Peter Castro, associate professor of anthropology, was published in World Development. The article draws attention to ongoing conflict and insecurity in the Darfur region of Sudan, still one of the world’s largest humanitarian situations. Darfur once commanded global attention but has receded into the shadows of a world suffering from compassion fatigue, says Castro. The article is based on work Castro did in Darfur in 2012 and 2014 with the Near East Foundation. 05/07/18
