This site links to published research briefs as well as advocacy writings on Sudan by Eric Reeves. These have been organized chronologically, and include all electronic and other publications since the signing of the historic Machakos Protocol (July 2002), guaranteeing South Sudan a self-determination referendum. There are separate links for publications in 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020. There are also separate links for yet earlier pieces, primarily related to oil development in southern Sudan and pre-July 2002 stages in the peace process, as well as and first two years of the Darfur genocide. Briefs and other writings are also organized by category in the Archives.
Additionally, there are links to Reeves’ formal publications in newspapers, news magazines, academic journals, and human rights publications, as well as the texts of his Congressional testimony. A complete list of publications, testimony, and academic presentations is also linked (as is a grouping of profiles of his work).
Eric Reeves is currently a Fellow at the Rift Valley Institute (Kenya, UK, U.S.).
He has spent the past twenty-two years working virtually full-time as a Sudan researcher and analyst, publishing extensively both in the US and internationally. He has testified several times before the Congress, has lectured widely in academic settings, and has served as a consultant to a number of human rights and humanitarian organizations operating in Sudan. Working independently, he has written on all aspects of Sudan’s recent history. His book about Darfur (A Long Day’s Dying: Critical Moments in the Darfur Genocide) was published in May 2007. He has recently published Compromising with Evil: An archival history of greater Sudan, 2007 — 2012 (available at no cost as an eBook). Brief reviews of these books may be found at:

and
[An autobiographical sketch, growing out of reflections during recent years, may be found here.]
The contents of this website, as well as other electronic files and hard copy—including a range of Sudan-related publications, written materials, photographs, and maps—are presently being archived in the human rights division of the Thomas J. Dodd Research Center, University of Connecticut Libraries, Storrs, Connecticut.
As part of his work, Eric Reeves has served as an expert witness in dozens of asylum cases involving Darfuris; nearly all were eventually granted political asylum in the United States or Europe.
Finally, Eric Reeves was director of the Sudan Aid Fund, hosted by the Community Foundation of Western Massachusetts (a 501/c/3 organization). He has donated all lecture fees, human rights award honoraria, publication stipends, royalties, and other Sudan-related income to the Sudan Aid Fund and directly to humanitarian organizations without a US. 501/c/3 designation. He also donates all gallery proceeds from his woodturnings to Oxfam America, International Medical Corps, and other humanitarian organizations for their urgent work in Darfur and indeed greater Sudan, including South Sudan and South Kordofan.
Although the Sudan Aid Fund eventually became too expensive to maintain because of a drop-off in contributions, Eric Reeves himself still contributes substantially to humanitarian organizations by way of sale of his woodturnings:

Altogether, he has been able to direct more than $1.4 million to a range of humanitarian organizations in greater Sudan.

“The victims [of the Holocaust] perished not only because of the killers, but also because of the apathy of the bystanders. What astonished us after the torment, after the tempest, was not that so many killers killed so many victims, but that so few cared about us at all.”
[Elie Wiesel, “Why were there so few?”]
