Sudan: Humanitarian Response Dashboard (as of 31 July 2023)

Overview

Fighting in Sudan has resulted in devastating consequences for civilians. Over 3 million people have been internally displaced across the country. Many others have been left stranded and cut off from access to basic services in Khartoum, Darfur and Kordofan states. Prices of food commodities, when available, continue to soar. The protection of civilians remains a key concern, with reports of sexual and gender-based violence rising as well as reports of family separation and child recruitment. Access to health continues to be hampered by the ongoing conflict. Health facilities lack sufficient staff and supplies, and are barely functional in some areas.
Delivering of humanitarian assistance has been constrained by insecurity, looting and bureaucratic impediments. Despite the challenges, 109 humanitarian partners have reached about 3.2 million people with life-saving assistance from April to July. Prior to the conflict, 2.7 million people were reached from January to March. This includes provision of vital assistance on education, health, food, nutrition, water and protection.
Humanitarian organizations require $2.6 billion to support 18.1 million people with multi-sectoral assistance and protection services until the end of the year, but only $606 million (23.6 per cent) were received as of 31 July.
