E1: How it All Started

How it All Started

In the first episode of the Lundin War Crimes Trial, we meet two experts who take us back to when it all began. What was the connection between oil and the war in Sudan? How did Lundin’s search for oil affect the people who lived in the area and how did the world react to the crimes that were committed?

Participants:
•    Dr Leben Moro, Director of Planning, Innovation and Quality Assurance at the University of Juba.
•    Marina Peter, the founder of the European Coalition on Oil in Sudan, the network that stood behind the Unpaid Debt report.

Host: 
•    Halima Athumani
