Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,

With great concern and dismay, we are following the ongoing armed conflict
in Sudan and its devastating consequences for the Sudanese people and the
country. There are too many casualties already. Sudan’s tangible and
intangible cultural heritage is also at risk from the armed conflict and
the resulting instability. In the interest of the people of Sudan and
their rich cultural heritage, we hope that the current conflict will be
quickly resolved.

Even in this difficult situation, we would like to facilitate the annual
exchange between Sudanese and German researchers within the framework of
the Sudan Day Berlin, which is jointly organized by Humboldt-Universität
zu Berlin, the Sudan Archaeological Society Berlin (SAG) e.V., the
Ägyptisches Museum und Papyrussammlung (ÄMP-SMB) and the German
Archaeological Institute (DAI Berlin & DAI-KAAK).

We therefore invite you to attend our research colloquium, which will take
place on 24 June 2023 from 10:00-18:00 in the main building of
Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin. This year, the Sudan Day Berlin is
dedicated to the topic ‘Lifeways in ancient Sudan’. The invitation with
the current programme and further information is attached.

The lectures can also be followed online via the webinar registration link:
