Report
Over the past year, NRC Sudan has:
- Directly assisted over one million people (2x more than last year), including through food security initiatives, shelter, protection, and education in difficult areas of the country, including breaking through siege lines to get food aid into famine-declared Zamzam camp.
- Expanded our cash and market-based approaches, distributing over $26M in CVA, such as the bakery project, ensuring affordable bread for hundreds of thousands, or introducing e-vouchers in isolated areas of South Kordofan.
- Pioneered innovative digital solutions, enabling aid delivery in hard-to-reach areas amid telecommunication blackouts, and trialing better ways for local organisations to receive funds or to digitally transform monitoring and feedback systems as we scaled up.
- Partnered with 54 local organisations (10x more than last year), strengthening locally led humanitarian responses and having issued a thousand Group Cash Transfers for supporting at scale the hyper-local response efforts.
- Deepened our humanitarian diplomacy and advocacy efforts progressing dialogue and decisions regarding humanitarian access, protection of civilians, support for local responders, and reforming the current humanitarian response model in Sudan, engaging with global and regional powers as well as multilaterals.
Despite these efforts, the situation remains dire. With famines already declared, atrocity alerts, the world’s largest internal displacement crisis, and millions on the brink, we must continue to urgently scale up assistance to prevent further loss of life. Continued and increased support from key government donors like you is crucial to maintaining our operations and expanding our reach.
