HELP CHILDREN AFFECTED BY THE CONFLICT IN SUDAN

Prolonged conflict in Sudan is putting children and their families at risk. The intense violence has forced millions of children to flee their homes, making Sudan the largest child displacement crisis in the world. 

Famine is present in at least five locations in Sudan, with a risk of spreading to 17 other locations. An estimated 3.2 million children under five will experience severe acute malnutrition in 2025. 

The conflict has also led to civilian infrastructure being decimated, leaving children and communities without essential services like clean water and basic health care. 

With millions of people being displaced, households and families struggle with a severely limited ability to provide appropriate feeding and care for their young children. 

The crisis has left more than 30.4 million people, half of them children, requiring urgent assistance in 2025.

HOW IS UNICEF RESPONDING TO THE CONFLICT IN SUDAN?

Since the conflict erupted in 2023, UNICEF has reached millions of children and their families with safe drinking water, health supplies and nutrition screenings, while also providing mental health support, safe spaces for learning and routine immunizations. 

We are calling for a ceasefire so that humanitarian workers can safely provide urgent health, nutrition, protection and education services to children and families affected by the crisis. 

We are also working to ensure safe passage for children and their families trapped in conflict areas across the country.
