Sudan

30 million people need humanitarian aid

10.4 million internally displaced persons

637,234 people were in acute malnutrition at the beginning of 2025

499,406 people helped

Since April 15, 2023, armed conflict has erupted between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) throughout Sudan.

The conflict quickly spread from Khartoum to Darfur, then to Al Jazeera State in December 2023 and Port Sudan in May 2025.

The violence has led to large-scale internal displacement, making Sudan the world’s largest displacement crisis, with 10.4 million people displaced within the country. Thirty million people are in need of humanitarian assistance. The conflict is having a devastating impact on access to basic services. The population no longer has access to healthcare, education, safe living conditions or even food.

With the outbreak of conflict in April 2023 and the forced evacuation of our expatriate teams from Sudan, SOLIDARITÉS INTERNATIONAL was the first international NGO to return to Darfur and organize an emergency response. SOLIDARITÉS INTERNATIONAL has operational bases in several states.

SOLIDARITÉS INTERNATIONAL has leveraged its expertise in emergency response to assess humanitarian needs and implement emergency projects, such as the distribution of kits (water, hygiene, sanitation, and shelter), cash, rehabilitation of water systems damaged by the conflict, provision of a healthy environment through the construction of latrines and shelters, solid waste management, and distribution of basic commodities. But despite our presence in hard-to-reach areas, operations have been hampered by the general level of violence and insecurity.
