There is a relatively
new newspaper and web site in English and Arabic called
The Niles, a project initiated by Media in Cooperation and Transition (MICT) to promote independent, balanced and accurate coverage of Sudan and South Sudan. Some 20 journalists from Sudan and South Sudan contribute to
The Niles. MICT also sponsors practical training and coaching to help advance reporters' skills in relaying stories that shape people's lives.
The Niles partners with
Al Sahafa and
The Citizen.
The Niles is funded by the German Federal Foreign Office and managed by MICT.
