In 2005, after 21 years of brutal war between northern and southern Sudan, the leaders and people of Sudan embraced peace. They agreed that the people of the south must decide their own future. So on 9 January 2011, southern Sudanese will vote whether or not to become a separate nation. The UK government has promised to support the peace process. We can hold them to that promise and urge them to support the outcome of a free and fair referendum. Whatever the result, Sudan will need support to build peace for the long-term. www.cafod.org.uk/sudanpeace
