HIGHLIGHTS
Key Achievements
From September to December 2025, the Sudan Health Cluster provided support to 1,421 health facilities and 62 mobile clinics through the contributions of 41 active partners. During this period, health services included 5,414,360 outpatient consultations, benefiting a wide population. 94,988 Hospitals managed admissions and coordinated referrals for specialized care. Preventive services ensured the immunization of 110,595 children against Measles 1 and Penta 3. Maternal and child health programs recorded 187,525 antenatal visits and 34,743 assisted deliveries, including 3,929 cesarean sections. Mental health and psychosocial support reached 42,743 individuals in need, while 54,000 cases of communicable disease cases were effectively treated. To strengthen outbreak response and routine service delivery, essential supplies were distributed—among them 77 IEHK basic kits and 49 reproductive health kits—enhancing partner capacity across the health system.
Coordination & Strategic Developments
Coordination: Between September and December 2025, the Sudan Health Cluster demonstrated strong, results-driven coordination, advancing the 2026 Humanitarian Programme Cycle while sustaining lifesaving response delivery despite operational constraints. Extensive partner engagement—including consultations with 105 CBOs/WLOs/OPDs and 2,851 community members—confirmed health as the second highest priority need, with urgent demand for consultations, imaging, and ANC/PNC services amid persistent barriers such as treatment costs, medicine shortages, and long waiting times. Strategic planning milestones included submission of PiN and severity estimates (21M PiN; 10M target; 6.6M prioritized; $325.3M requirement), Tawila ORP updates, multisectoral priority packages, and activity-based costing alignment, alongside participation in ICCG, JIAF, FSLA, and GHC processes. Operational readiness improved through prepositioned supplies in Nyala capable of serving ~96,000 people, outbreak coordination for cholera and dengue, and monitoring visits to key pediatric facilities. Information management strengthened through bulletins, infographics, pipeline tracking, and reporting systems, while CCPM participation reached 89% partner response, underscoring accountability and performance monitoring. Capacity-building and localization efforts expanded with national and zonal HPC orientations, unified tools, coaching for subnational teams, TWG revitalization, and ongoing recruitment to fill coordinator gaps. Resource mobilization progressed through SHF proposal reviews, ECHO HIP inputs, and joint Health–WASH HEV planning, complemented by PRSEAH engagement, gender integration, and AAP advocacy. Despite staffing losses and funding pressures affecting Q4 outputs, collective action across partners, government, and clusters reinforced evidence-based planning, strengthened coordination architecture, and positioned the Health Cluster to scale principled, prioritized assistance in 2026.
