War and conflict in Sudan has now displaced more than 5 million.
According to the International Organization for Migration (IOM), “needs in Sudan are at an all-time high, with 24.7 million people – or half of the country’s population – in need of humanitarian aid and protection.” The ongoing conflict has severely impacted access to food, water, cash, fuel, health care and other basic services.
The Sudan-Norway Academic Cooperation (SNAC) project’s Sudan blog published by the Chr. Michelsen Institute (CMI) sheds light on various aspects of the conflict and the growing humanitarian emergency.
