Listen "EP 28: South Sudan Elections 2026: Why Elections Without Reforms Could Be Dangerous for the Country's Future"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of the Spark It Podcast, we unpack South Sudan’s long transitional period, the 2018 revitalized peace agreement, and the repeated extensions that have delayed the country’s path to stability. We explain the purpose of the pre-transitional and transitional phases, the challenges of forming security arrangements, and why elections without key reforms, such as a permanent constitution, a census, and functional institutions, risk deepening insecurity. We also reflect on what ordinary South Sudanese need most: fairness, stability, and meaningful participation in shaping the country’s future. Tune in.
