Sudan: Famine Prevention Snapshot, May - August 2024

Attachments

OVERVIEW

Humanitarian partners in Sudan launched a Famine Prevention Plan in April 2024 to scale up response to millions of people in acute need. More than 25.6 million people are facing acute levels of food insecurity, including 755,000 at risk of famine. Of the 9.3 million people targeted for support, 6 million have benefited from at least one form of humanitarian assistance.
While this represents a broad reach in absolute terms, affected populations require access to multiple rounds of multi-sector assistance to meet survival needs. Looking ahead, partners will continue focusing on scaling up efforts to provide integrated assistance in priority risk of famine areas.
