Rebuilding Southern Sudan

Darfur has diverted attention from a different civil war in Sudan, between North and South. The BBC's Mike Wooldridge reports from Southern Sudan on efforts to sustain a tenuous peace, and rebuild its fractured infrastructure.

PART 1




Southern Sudan has emerged from a decades-long conflict with a semi-autonomous government and a hope of peace. Southern Sudan is trying to rebuild, but its future remains far from secure.
PART 2






Southern Sudan went back to war in 1983 after an earlier conflict. It's now two years removed from its 2005 peace agreement. In this documentary produced for the BBC World Service, Mike Wooldridge asks whether the peace will hold this time, beyond the elections scheduled for 2009 and the referendum on Southern Sudan's future status in 2011.
