The conclusion of the study is that there are conditions for freedom of religion in Sudan after the peace agreement. I also claim that the conditions are better now compared to the contiguous period before the CPA. Finally, I remark that there exists religious discrimination in the whole Sudanese society that has to be dealt with on the three different levels. (Less)
