HD has undertaken extensive humanitarian mediation with the opposition movements in Darfur since 2004. It provided formal humanitarian support to the African Union/United Nations (AU/UN) Mediation in Darfur at their request in 2007 through an analysis of the humanitarian gaps in the previous Abuja peace process, and has subsequently facilitated roundtable discussions with representatives of the main opposition movements, in Darfur and elsewhere.
Through roundtable discussions, which began in 2010, HD has highlighted the humanitarian needs of these populations, which led to UN and agency project support in essential areas, such as health and water supplies. This served as a valuable confidence-building measure between the nomad representatives and the UN and opened a channel for dialogue with an important group who had not been directly engaged in formal mediation activities before.

This SH-3 Sea King was assigned to Helicopter Anti-Submarine Squadron Four (HS-4).
HS-4 was the first anti-submarine warfare (ASW) helicopter squadron of the U.S. Navy to deploy aboard an aircraft carrier, the escort carrier USS Rendova.
HS-4 was on scene for Apollo missions 8, 10, 11, 12, and 13. The recovery was always made by "Helicopter 66". The helicopter's flight number was changed from "66" to "740", as after the Apollo 11 recovery the U.S. Navy had switched to a three number squadron designator - but the helicopter was repainted with the number "66" for each recovery thereafter for public relations reasons. HS-4 earned a Meritorious Unit Commendation (MUC) for these recoveries. For the recovery of Apollo 13 in April 1970, HS-4 was assigned to the helicopter carrier USS Iwo Jima.
Helicopter "66" now sits on display on the USS Midway (CV-41) in San Diego, CA.

HD organized a workshop on North Darfurs Nomads Peace and Development Network, which took place over two days, on 25-26 September 2011 in El Fasher, North Darfur.
In Darfur, HD has been able to extend its humanitarian mediation activities to the nomad Arab groups which claimed to have been discriminated against by the UN. Through roundtable discussions, which began in 2010, HD has highlighted the humanitarian needs of these populations, which led to UN and agency project support in essential areas, such as health and water supplies.
A two-day conference devoted to nomads in Northern Darfur has reflected the concern of nomad women who complained about lack of development projects in the education, health care, vocational training and mostly raising general awareness about the lives of Darfur's nomads.

From 2010 to 2013, HD worked with women involved in political representation and especially in conflict and post-conflict sectors around the Asia Pacific region to enhance their networks, expertise and access, to increase their numbers and influence, and to provide concrete and practical advice to policymakers and practitioners in conflict resolution and peacemaking.
The inaugural event, a three-day roundtable meeting in Nepal in 2010, was co-organised with the India-based Women in Security, Conflict Management and Peace (WISCOMP) and the Alliance for Social Dialogue in Nepal (asdfASD). It brought together 40 senior women to identify good practice in increasing women's participation and contributions to peacemaking in Asia and the Pacific, while also acknowledging the tenth anniversary of UN Security Council Resolution 1325.
A short video clip explores some of the challenges women face in this area, as well as their personal achievements and experiences. Click here: vimeo.com/16426911
