The British Council is a global network for educational, cultural and technical co-operation assistance. It aims at professional excellence and high standards worldwide. Our purpose is to build mutually beneficial relationships between people in the UK and other countries and to increase appreciation of the UK’s ideas and achievements. We work in 110 countries and every year we help to create some form of personal contact with the UK for 16 million people around the world.
We served the Sudan for over fifty years. Our offices and library were first opened in Khartoum in 1947 and we have worked almost continuously in the Sudan ever since.
Now we have a large library including, books, tapes, videos, BBC TV, an Open Learning Centre and English Teachers' Resource Centre and information services - full of new technology including the Internet. We seek to provide the Sudanese public with up-to-date knowledge of English language, education and research, civil reform, medicine, the environment and the arts of the UK.
We open doors to a new creative UK at the forefront of technological research and development, creativity in art, design and music, an open society, youth culture, improved communications, and exciting markets and products; and, of course, educational opportunities.
In Sudan, we offer a range of services and facilities including:
We also assist visiting British businessmen and suppliers. In addition to the usual briefing and information services offered free of charge, we are able to assist with travel, secretarial support, programming, and other arrangements for a modest charge.
