It’s been two years since armed conflict erupted in Sudan. It’s now both the world’s largest displacement and humanitarian crisis.

Over 8 million people are internally displaced, with another 4 million forced to flee across borders.

Nearly 26 million face severe food insecurity. Famine has been declared in five regions, with these conditions spreading rapidly.

Conflict and economic collapse have gutted basic services with less than 25% of healthcare facilities still operational. Humanitarian aid is severely restricted and media access is rare.

Please donate today to help us get people living through the Sudan conflict the urgent aid they need.

“We’re deeply shocked by the dire situation affecting millions of Sudanese people. This situation is especially critical for populations trapped in conflict zones.”

Sudan: Crisis and conflict

  • 10 Million

    More than 10 million people have been forced to flee their homes with no water. Just £20 can help buy a 5,000 litre water tank so families can access clean water.

  • 755,000

    755,000 people are already at risk of famine. That means they have nothing to eat. Just £37 can help a child recover from malnutrition by providing therapeutic food.

  • 296%

    Food prices have increased by up to 296% since the conflict started. Just £84 can provide healthy, nourishing food for 100 women and children.
