An Introduction to SSSUK
The Sudan Studies Society of the United Kingdom (SSSUK) was established in 1987 to encourage and promote Sudanese Studies in the United Kingdom and abroad in all disciplines and levels. Anyone with an interest in the Sudan, however general or specialised, is welcome to join. SSSUK’s aim is to promote the study of the Sudan in all its aspects, provide a forum for discussion and debate and encourage cooperation among all those interested in the Sudan.
The fostering of international links is also important and the Society is in regular contact with other similar societies. SSSUK cooperates with our sister organisation the Sudan Studies Association of North America (SSA) in the organisation of the International Sudan Studies Conference every three years. Previous conferences were held in Khartoum (1988), Durham (1991), Boston (1994), Cairo (1997), Durham (2000), Washington DC (2003) and Bergen (2006).
SSSUK is keen to attract members both in the UK and worldwide.
SSSUK is a registered charity (No. 328272)
