The National Council of Traditional Authority Leaders (NCOTAL) is set to convene a national conference bringing together chiefs, elders and traditional leaders from across South Sudan at a time of growing insecurity and social strain. With communities grappling with intercommunal violence, displacement, land disputes and fractured relations, the meeting aims to position traditional leaders at the centre of peacebuilding and reconciliation efforts. This episode explores the purpose of the conference, the issues leaders are carrying from their communities, and how traditional authority can help promote unity, peaceful coexistence and practical solutions on the ground, including the role of youth and women in shaping lasting peace.
