At the time Nonviolent Peaceforce told us that &#8220;While the signing of the agreement is not a guarantee of peace, it is a public declaration of constructive, peaceful and positive intentions to end the war. Having been on the front line of the conflict since the first day, the Nonviolent Peaceforce team is greatly relieved at the signing of the agreement and we want to extend our appreciation and support to the parties as they move into this new phase. We look forward to seeing strong, people centred leadership and action to move into the implementation of this agreement starting with an urgent and immediate cessation of hostilities.  Getting to peace is as complicated if not more so than getting to war.  The road ahead will be a long one that will take the dedication of all South Sudanese and the support of the international community to engage in reconciliation, justice and reconstruction.<\/p>\n<p>Since then the struggle goes on to make the peace agreement take hold, and we continue to report on whether progress is being made.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"float: right; width: 46%;\">Here are the CPNN articles on this subject:<\/div>\n<div style=\"float: right; width: 46%;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"float: right; width: 46%;\">\n<p align=\"justify\">\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/english.cpnn-world.org\/?p=25379\">South Sudan : Community leaders in Unity state pledge to promote a culture of peace<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/english.cpnn-world.org\/?p=21129\">Sudan: Darfur deal welcomed by UN chief as \u2018historic achievement\u2019<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/english.cpnn-world.org\/?p=19427\">Humanitarian community praise Sudan PM\u2019s visit to Nuba Mtns<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/english.cpnn-world.org\/?p=15699\">Churches in South Sudan promote \u201cthree pillars of peace\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/english.cpnn-world.org\/?p=15537\">The women who helped bring down Sudan\u2019s president<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/english.cpnn-world.org\/?p=14627\">Southern Sudanese leaders agree to promote a culture of peace<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/english.cpnn-world.org\/?p=14156\">South Sudanese speak on new peace deal<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/english.cpnn-world.org\/?p=13911\"> South Sudan Chapter of African Union Master Plan Roadmap \u201cPractical Steps To Silencing The Guns By 2020\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/english.cpnn-world.org\/?p=12134\">\u2018Back to Learning\u2019 education campaign to benefit half a million children in South Sudan<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/english.cpnn-world.org\/?p=9140\"> Nonviolent Peaceforce in South Sudan: The extremes of the human spirit<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/english.cpnn-world.org\/?p=7957\"> Winners of Youth Innovation Challenge to Engage in Peacebuilding in South Sudan<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/english.cpnn-world.org\/?p=4342\"> Beating the drum for peace: A chat with the general secretary of the South Sudan Council of Churches<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/english.cpnn-world.org\/?p=3755\"> Peace Agreement in South Sudan<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/english.cpnn-world.org\/?p=3091\"> Nonviolent Peaceforce: Urgent Update from South Sudan<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/english.cpnn-world.org\/?p=2049\"> Nonviolent Peaceforce: Women\u2019s Peacekeeping Teams incorporated into South Sudan communities<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/english.cpnn-world.org\/?p=442\">Sudan Open University Graduates Sign Peace Pledge<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/english.cpnn-world.org\/?p=439\">Children\u2019s Thoughts on Peace: Marking 1 Year of Civil War in South Sudan<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2013 \u2013 \u2013 \u2013 Links for the following articles published prior to 2015 do not work because they were made by a version of PERL programming that is no longer supported.
