This is the Lundin War Crimes Trial, a podcast-series produced by PAX and Global Idé, that follows the criminal trial in which two executives of a Swedish oil company, Lundin, will be tried for aiding abetting war crimes committed in Sudan between 1999-2003.

The company is also charged for profiting from war crimes in what is now part of South Sudan. During the period the company was active 200,000 people were forced to leave their homes and 12,000 people were killed.

Can a Swedish court bring justice to the survivors of the oil war?

    The European Coalition on Oil in Sudan (ECOS) was established in 2001, following a call from Sudanese churches and civil society to end the oil war. ECOS called upon oil companies to suspend their operations in Sudan until the war would be over and the conditions would allow that oil exploitation to benefitted the country. Between 2001 and 2012, ECOS represented over 50 European organisations and carried out research and advocacy on oil in Sudan on their behalf. The coalition produced a dozen studies and advocated with governments and the business sector to promote that Sudan’s oil wealth would contribute to peace and prosperity. One of them is Unpaid Debt.
    When Sudan and South Sudan separated in 2011, the priorities of the members of ECOS shifted and ECOS gradually ceased to function. The Dutch peace movement PAX has since then followed the case closely together with the Swedish NGO and think tank Global Idé.
