The war in DARFUR – 2003-2007 and ongoing
The war in Darfur is a CIVIL WAR in the west of Sudan.
Using the card in front of you OUTLINE the war in Darfur by placing the cards into chronological
order.
Drought causes
African tribes to move in search of water and
grazing land.
African Tribes move onto
land already owned by people in
Darfur, who used it for their own food and also money
crops.
The people of Darfur ask
the Government for protection
from these tribes and
protection for their land.
The Government fail to help.
This causes the people of Darfur to rebel against the Government and
their unfair treatment.
In Sudan there is a big divide...The north
ArabLight skinned
Muslim
The southNon-Arab
BlackChristian
The people or Darfur believed that the Government did not help them because they favour Arabs over non-Arabs and so they set up rebel groups (The Sudan Liberation Army and The Justice and Equality movement) to protest against the unfair
treatment.
These rebel protest groups attacked the Sudan Government troops.
The Governments response is BRUTAL – innocent civilians who had nothing to
do with the rebels were punished.
The Government add to their
already large army (which is
all Arab).This army is named the
JANJAWEED.
The JANJAWEED are meant to fight the rebel
forces but instead punish the innocent.
• They wipe out entire villages.
• They destroy food and water supplies to
villages.• They murder, rape and
tortured hundreds of thousands of innocent
civilians.
The believe that they are ethnically cleansing
Sudan.These attacks occur with the direct support of the Government of Sudan’s
armed forces.
400,000 CONFIRMED dead
2.5 million displaced(forced to leave their homes)
Thousands of woman RAPED
Thousands of men, women and children tortured

war in Darfur
Did you achieve YOUR goals?…
Outcomes…
Case study: Darfur 2003 - 2007 and ongoing
What were the causes?Look at your outline cards carefully and
look back at your mind map…
What factors caused the war in Darfur?
Turn to Page 3 in your workbook…

Cause 1 – pic clue
ECONOMIC
The north Arab
Light skinnedMuslim
The southNon-Arab
BlackChristian
Long standingethnic hatred
Cause 3
National Pride
Remote location
Now for each cause EXPLAIN how it contributed to
starting/sustaining the war in DARFUR.
Case study: Darfur 2003 - 2007 and ongoing
What were the causes?
ECONOMICYears of drought and increasing
desertification have meant that food and water resources have become
scarce.People forced to move south on to other
peoples farmland who are also struggling to survive.
Farmers who own land are growing cash crops, reducing the land available to
grow foodHow is this be a contributing factor to the war in Darfur?
Long standing ethnic hatred
Both sides have long-standing disputes and traditional hatred for each other.
They are divided ethnically and religiously
The government has been accused of favouring Arabs over non- Arabs
(persecuting non-Arabs)
How is this be a contributing factor to the war in Darfur?
National PrideThe conflict in Darfur is part of a wider conflict
in Sudan Some parts of anti- government forces (e.g.
Sudan liberation movement) want the south of Sudan to become an independent country and
rule themselves.The government are opposed to this and want
Sudan to remain as one country.How is this be a contributing factor to the war in Darfur?
Cause 4
