Multimedia Storytelling: The Spaces in Between

South Sudan has experienced decades of war and trauma, creating social and ethnic divisions and producing a cycle of violence that affects generations. Becoming a mirror for one another, individuals from different backgrounds came together to create a safe space of acknowledgement and re-connection, and to tell their shared stories. 

While forgiveness and memoralisation can prevent future conflict and facilitate peace, each person will always carry with them traces of their loved ones and fractured past. These shared impressions of trauma make up the spaces in the between us all. 

This series bears witness and celebrates some of South Sudan's heroes - Peace Mobilisers working at the grassroots level to heal wounds, re-weave the torn fabric of their communities, and lead a nationwide reconciliation process.
