Project report Humanitarian crisis in Sudan

Project report

Sudan is currently experiencing the world's largest humanitarian and displacement crisis. This emergency was triggered by a brutal civil war that erupted on April 15, 2023, between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces .

1. Scope of the Crisis

Mass Displacement: Over 14 million people have been forced from their homes—roughly 11.3 million within Sudan and 3.5 million into neighboring countries like Chad, South Sudan, and Egypt. This represents the fastest-growing displacement crisis globally.

Catastrophic Hunger: Nearly 25 million people (half the population) face acute hunger. Famine has been officially confirmed in several areas, including the Zamzam camp in North Darfur and parts of South Kordofan.

Healthcare Collapse: More than 70% of hospitals in conflict-affected areas are non-functional. This has fueled deadly outbreaks of cholera, malaria, and measles.

Loss of Life: Estimates of the death toll vary widely, from official counts of 150,000 to some projections exceeding 400,000 when accounting for starvation and disease.

2. Key Drivers & Atrocities

Power Struggle: The war began as a dispute over the integration of the RSF into the national army and the timeline for a transition to civilian rule.

Systemic Violence: Both sides have been accused of war crimes, but the RSF has been specifically implicated in a genocide against non-Arab ethnic groups (like the Masalit) in the Darfur region.

Weaponized Starvation: Conflict parties have been accused of using starvation as a tactic by blocking aid convoys and destroying local markets.

Gender-Based Violence: There has been a "catastrophic" increase in reports of sexual violence, rape, and abductions used as weapons of war.

3. The "Forgotten War"

Despite the scale of suffering, international aid remains dangerously underfunded. Major donors, including the United States, have made significant cuts to humanitarian funding, forcing organizations like the International Rescue Committee (IRC) and the World Food Programmed (WFP) to scale back life-saving services.

Would you like to know more about the specific regions most affected or how to support relief efforts through vetted organizations?

The humanitarian crisis in Sudan, stemming from an April 2023 conflict between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and Rapid Support Forces (RSF), is the world's largest, displacing over 12 million people. Half the population faces extreme hunger and famine, while over 75% of health facilities are non-functional, causing severe malnutrition, disease outbreaks, and widespread sexual violence.

Key aspects of the crisis include:

Mass Displacement: Nearly 13 million people, or one in three Sudanese, have been displaced, with 8.6 million within Sudan and 3.8 million fleeing to neighboring countries like Chad and South Sudan.

Hunger and Famine: Roughly 25 million people face acute food insecurity. Famine has been reported in areas like Zamzam camp in North Darfur.

Health System Collapse: With most hospitals closed, disease outbreaks (cholera, measles) are rampant. Over 3.5 million children under five are acutely malnourished.

Violence against Civilians: The war has led to over 150,000 deaths, with reports of ethnic cleansing in Darfur and widespread sexual violence.

Humanitarian Access: Fighting, damaged infrastructure, and attacks on aid workers have crippled aid delivery.

Regional Impact: The influx of refugees into Chad and South Sudan is straining resources in countries already facing their own crises.

The conflict is driven by a power struggle between the military and a paramilitary group, with both sides using gold to finance their operations. Despite the scale, the international response has been limited, leaving millions in urgent need.

Humanitarian crisis in Sudan

By Olivier | Project Leader

Community of national artistic unity

Bujumbura burundi

The project's focus is on alleviating the humanitarian crisis in Sudan by providing critical aid like food, healthcare, and shelter, while also addressing the root causes through advocacy for humanitarian access and protection of civilians. This work is vital because the conflict has caused famine, widespread displacement, and a collapse of essential services, affecting millions of people.

Project focus

Providing essential aid:

Food: Distributing emergency food assistance to combat famine and severe hunger, and screening children for malnutrition.

Water and sanitation: Providing safe drinking water and improving sanitation to prevent waterborne diseases.

Healthcare: Delivering medical care5 including support for injured civilians and those with hronic diseases, and assisting with childbirth and post-natal care.

Shelter: Providing shelter for displaced people who have fled their homes due to conflict.

Protecting civilians:

Advocacy: Advocating for safe and unimpeded humanitarian access, as parties to the conflict have deliberately obstructed aid delivery.

Human rights: Condemning grave violations of human rights against children, including killing, injury, and sexual violence, and calling for accountability.

Addressing the root causes:

Education: Providing educational support in refugee camps.

Documentation: Assisting refugees in obtaining essential identity documents to help them access services and rebuild their lives.

The humanitarian crisis in Sudan

Scale: The crisis is considered the world's largest and fastest-growing humanitarian crisis, with nearly half the population in need of aid and millions facing famine.

Causes: The conflict between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the Rapid Support Forces, which began in April 2023, is the primary driver of the crisis, leading to immense displacement and destruction.

Consequences:

Displacement: Millions have been forced to flee their homes, creating one of the largest displacement crises in the world.

Hunger: Famine conditions are present in some areas, with millions more facing acute food insecurity.

Health: Access to healthcare has been severely limited due to the destruction of civilian infrastructure, including hospitals, and shortages of medicine and staff.

Protection: Civilians, especially women and children, face grave risks, including gender-based violence and attacks on schools and hospitals.

On 15 April, Sudan marks two years of devastating civil war. The conflict has triggered the world’s largest displacement crisis and a deepening humanitarian catastrophe that remains grossly underfunded and underreported.

It is estimated that more than 150,000 people have lost their lives. Over 14 million people have been forced from their homes – 11.3 million within Sudan and at least 3.5 million across borders, mainly into Chad, South Sudan, Egypt and beyond. And while the bombs still fall, hunger is tightening its grip. Famine is already gnawing at children in displacement camps, and almost half of the population – 24.6 million - are going hungry.

This is the bleakest, most devastating year yet for Sudan and its surrounding countries. Fighting and brutal attacks on civilians continue unchecked. From the Sahel to the Red Sea, the humanitarian emergency grows more dire by the day. Yet the international response remains dangerously inadequate.
