Since hostilities broke out on the 15th of April 2023, the people of Sudan have been caught in a conflict of major proportions. This has deeply exacerbated the pre-existing hunger and child malnutrition crisis and displaced 8.5 million people. Today, over 25 million people across Sudan, South Sudan, and Chad are trapped in a spiral of deteriorating food security, violence and displacement.
