@ivg.bsky.social Archaeologist. Cambridge. Malta. Sudan. Find me on Bluesky.

And it’s finally out - our paper on #photography #Sudan and #JebelMoya. It’s open access :-) It’s a collab between archaeologists and colleague from @ExploreWellcome link.springer.com/article/10.100…







Nowhere else on the planet are so many lives at stake as in Sudan today. In large parts of the country there is far too little aid, and far too little protection for civilians. The international community needs to recognise and react to the scale of this crisis:

This RSF militiamen threatens traders bringing in food and fuel supplies in to Al Fashir. Saying if we catch you we will tie you up to the steering wheels of your vehicles and burn you in your car alive. Al Fashir is being starved and not enough people are talking about it #Sudan

Students in West Kordofan have started taking their high school qualification exams. Children in Sudan have been through so much, and still expected (and striving) to excel academically. Millions others remain out of school. #KeepEyesOnSudan

📢'Invisible & severe' death toll of #Sudan conflict revealed Study estimates more violent deaths in Khartoum State alone than current number recorded for entire country. Evidence death toll in other regions also higher. 👉lshtm.ac.uk/newsevents/new…

Join us on Wednesday 13 Nov at 7:00 PM Sudan time in a Facebook Live where we'll discuss Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights of Sudanese Women; • The conversation will center women’s experiences during difficult times, prioritizing the conflict's effect on them and dismantling the public priorities speech that tries to marginalize women’s voices. • We will highlight how conflict and instability disproportionately affect women’s health, limiting their access to safe child delivery operations, hygienic period products, management facilities and essential care for pregnant women and new mothers. This might result in pushing women to return to old and traditional practices that might be harmful for their health. • We'll aim to understand the physical and psychological impact of insufficient access to SRHR care and products, such as social isolation and stigma. • Finally, we discuss locally driven initiatives and efforts to reduce the effect of the current crisis. We will be joined by: *Fatima Ali: Social Change and SRHR Strategist. Dr Marwa Tageldin: Menstrual Health Expert and SRHR Advocate. Dr Tibyan Elhussain: Medical doctor and Founder of Shani Girls Club. #Sudan #women #SRHR #Health
