Trust and Safety

Safety Guidelines

Sudan Peace Bloc is an open civic peace initiative built around a clear message: no to war, yes to peace in Sudan. The platform exists to make peaceful civilian voices visible, countable, and connected without turning participation into political, military, partisan, or hostile organizing.

Everyone who participates is expected to protect the civic purpose of the bloc and respect the dignity and safety of others.

What is welcome

Sudan Peace Bloc welcomes peaceful civic participation, including Peace Voices, public support for ending the war in Sudan, diaspora solidarity, community outreach, local coordination, and responsible contribution through Peace Ambassador paths.

Participants may share a short peace message, identify their country or city when they choose, and take part in public visibility or counted-only participation.

What is not allowed

The platform must not be used for hate speech, racism, threats, harassment, personal attacks, intimidation, doxxing, incitement to violence, military propaganda, or content that targets people based on identity, region, background, ethnicity, religion, gender, or political opinion.

The platform must also not be used to spread false representation, impersonate another person, misuse a PVR Code, or claim authority from Sudan Peace Bloc without permission.

Keep the message peaceful

The core message of the platform is:

“No to War, Yes to Peace in Sudan.”

Participants who choose a custom message should keep it aligned with this purpose. Custom messages should support peace, civilian protection, dignity, and the end of war. Messages that include abusive, hateful, inflammatory, racist, threatening, or militarized language may be held back, limited, or not published.

Peace Ambassador responsibility

Peace Ambassadors are not simply public voices. They may become local civic contributors who help introduce the bloc, support peaceful outreach, coordinate with communities, and carry the message of peace in their city or country of residence.

Peace Ambassador contribution must remain truthful, peaceful, and within the limits set by Sudan Peace Bloc’s coordination team. Submitting interest does not automatically make someone a confirmed representative or give them authority to speak on behalf of the bloc.

Protect yourself and others

Participants should avoid publishing sensitive personal information, private contact details, exact private locations, or information that could expose themselves or others to risk.

If a participant believes that publishing their Peace Voice could expose them to risk, pressure, harassment, or unwanted attention of any kind, Sudan Peace Bloc recommends using a nickname or public display name instead of a legal name, and avoiding a personal photo or social media link. In that case, the platform should not display any other personal information that could directly lead back to the participant.

If a participant is confident that they want to stand publicly behind their Peace Voice, they may choose to share their real name, a personal photo or avatar, and an approved public social media profile. This can be a strong way to participate openly in Sudan Peace Bloc, but it remains the participant’s choice and responsibility.

A PVR Code is private. It should be used only by the person who received it to return to their own Peace Voice. Do not share, request, copy, or use another person’s PVR Code.

Platform integrity

Sudan Peace Bloc asks each person to register only one Peace Voice. Multiple registrations by the same person can weaken the credibility of the public count and the civic record.

The public count and public Peace Voices are displayed from the platform database. The purpose is to show real support for peace in Sudan in a transparent and responsible way.

Reporting misuse

If you see misuse of the platform, false representation, harassment, unsafe content, or abuse of a PVR Code or Peace Ambassador identity, use the report misuse path or contact the coordination team through the available contact page.

Sudan Peace Bloc may review, limit, remove, or hold back content or participation that conflicts with the civic peace purpose of the platform.
