Watch: Our colleague Ahmed Omer in #Sudan shows us reception centres being set up in Wad Madani, some 160km from Khartoum, as thousands keep fleeing the capital. As fighting rages on, our teams assess humanitarian needs to respond ASAP to the unfolding catastrophe.

Our 2023 annual report. It was a tough year for #Sudan 🇸🇩, and for our staff. We adapted & scaled up as best we could. We served over 445,000 people, supported local response, pushed for system-wide change. We hope to help a million people this year 🔗 reliefweb.int/report/sudan/n…

We joined 93 organizations calling for the end of telecommunication blackouts in #Sudan. No internet = no bank transfer, no cash, no information, no local aid response, no links with family, amidst raging war and looming famine. reliefweb.int/report/sudan/t…

Utterly horrified by the brutal massacre of at least 50 civilians in Al Jazira, Sudan, yesterday. The slaughter of innocent lives must be condemned in the strongest terms: reuters.com/world/africa/s… 1/3

#Sudan: At least 755,000 now facing catastrophic levels of hunger. 25.6 million people projected to face acute food insecurity or worse. We need urgent aid & diplomatic scale-up before Sudan reaches point of no return. reliefweb.int/report/sudan/f…

#Sudan: Together with local responders, we are mobilizing in Gedaref to provide urgent assistance. However, resources are overstretched. Just in this state, 633,000 people have had no home for the past 15 months. This cycle of violence must end.

#Sudan:"I was a student, I had a future. Now I have no work. Every day, I walk for hours to collect firewood & try selling it but it’s not enough…even with the help of our community, I can hardly feed the family”. Like millions of others in #Sudan, Samia is living with hunger.

Active shelling destroys communities and whole neighbourhoods, incl Omdurman. #Khartoum needs major #shelter + infrastructural repair, #urban regeneration. Mostly though, use of explosive weaponry in populated areas must be limited. Casualty and destruction aside, girls and

War, hunger and disease is devastating #Sudan. 10.2 million have been forced to leave their homes. 12-year-old Salwa fled to NRC East & Southern Africa’s transit centre in South Sudan. Her life is now on hold. brnw.ch/21wM582

500 days of war. 11 million people displaced. 25 million hungry. How many more shocking numbers do we need before we #TalkAboutSudan?

#Sudan: We supported 3,600+ families with cash assistance helping them prepare for the coming rains & recover from the last season. Thanks to BHA, families can now meet their most urgent needs with dignity. In crisis, cash is more than money it’s survival, resilience & hope.

My key message at #COP30: Communities displaced by conflict face the hardest climate impacts, yet are often excluded from solutions. That must change. Proud to represent NRC East & Southern Africa Norwegian Refugee Council in Belém. #ClimateJustice #Displacement
