Nuba Mountains Ceasefire Agreement in 2002
Ceasefire Agreement • February 18th, 2011

A ceasefire agreement that brought an end to the hostilities in the Nuba Mountains region was signed in 2002. It was negotiated and signed at the Bürgenstock resort near Lucerne in Switzerland with the support of Switzerland, the USA, and the Intergovernmental Authority on Development (IGAD). This event was a milestone in the peace negotiations in Naivasha, Kenya, at which a Swiss national provided valuable mediation services. These negotiations led to the signing in 2005 of the Comprehensive Peace Agreement (CPA) between the North and the South of Sudan in which it is stipulated that the South would be permitted to hold a referendum on 9 January 2011 to decide on the question of secession from the North. The referendum duly took place on 9-15 January 2011. An overwhelming majority voted in favour secession. One Long- and two short-term observers from Switzerland took part in the EU referendum observation mission.
