The Rift Valley Institute (South Sudan)

The Rift Valley Institute operates in Sudan, South Sudan, Somalia, Somaliland, Kenya, Ethiopia, Uganda, Burundi, Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). In those countries where government structures are intact and educational institutions remain functional, the Institute offers specialist services to development agencies, universities and research organizations. Where war has disrupted government and eroded civic life, the Institute aligns itself with researchers and community activists—from the region and its diasporas—in the effort to sustain local institutions and restore standards of research and public information. The RVI’s partners include activists, writers and artists, civil society organizations, government ministries, museums, universities and cultural associations.
