Download Are open borders a new beginning for Sudan and South Sudan?

As Sudan and South Sudan prepare to open their shared border, can a revival of social and economic ties help mend relations and bring peace between the two countries? They were at war less than ten years ago, and conflicts over oil territories on the border have continued. But it’s hoped that trade and travel can be a boost for both countries. We’ll hear from both sides of the border about hopes for a better future.
