Since April 2023, Sudan has been facing one of the world’s most severe humanitarian crises. A violent conflict between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) has led to a nationwide collapse of infrastructure and massive displacement. Over 10 million people have fled their homes, the health system has largely broken down, and outbreaks of cholera, dengue, measles, and malaria are spreading rapidly. Access to safe water, food, and medical care is critically limited.
