While the conflict in Darfur, which began in the early 2000s, was influenced by environmental factors such as drought and desertification, it is not solely classified as a "climate change war." The conflict arose from a complex interplay of ethnic tensions, political marginalization, and competition for resources, exacerbated by climate-related issues. Although climate change may have contributed to the conditions that fueled the conflict, it is important to recognize that wars are rarely driven by a single cause. Thus, labeling Darfur as the first climate change war oversimplifies the multifaceted nature of the conflict.
Economic development
In the Darfur conflict, the primary oppressors are the Sudanese government and its allied militia groups, notably the Janjaweed. They have targeted non-Arab ethnic groups, such as the Fur, Masalit, and Zaghawa, resulting in widespread violence, displacement, and atrocities against these communities. The conflict is rooted in ethnic and political tensions, with the government seeking to maintain control and suppress dissent from marginalized populations.
