Highlights

  • On 3 July, UNHCR launched a revised Sudan Situation Supplementary Appeal 2024, requesting $1.03 billion to respond to the Sudan situation emergency response – in Sudan and neighbouring countries through the end of 2024. Compared to the original version of the appeal published in January 2024, UNHCR’s revised appeal includes an additional $40 million in requirements for Uganda ($30 million) and Libya ($10 million).
  • UNHCR’s Sudan Supplementary Appeal represents UNHCR’s budget requirements included in the revised 2024 Sudan Situation Regional Refugee Response Plan (RRP), launched on 2 July.
  • The latest Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) released on 27 June states that Sudan is facing the worst levels of acute food insecurity ever recorded by the IPC in the country. Approximately 25.6M people across Sudan will likely experience high levels of acute food insecurity (IPC Phase 3 or above) between June and September 2024. The situation is especially critical for populations trapped in areas affected by direct conflict, insecurity and lack of protection, particularly in Greater Darfur, Greater Kordofan, Khartoum and Al Jazirah states. The situation of IDPs and refugees is particularly concerning, as many rely entirely on humanitarian assistance. Access to life-saving assistance and services are limited due to the complex security situation.
