🚨 🚨 🚨 For 900 days, Sudanese families have endured unthinkable violence, mass displacement, and starvation. In parts of Darfur and Kordofan, people are boiling leaves just to survive. Sudan is now the world’s largest hunger, protection, and displacement crisis. More than 30 million people need aid, and 10 million have been forced from their homes. Women and girls face the additional threat of conflict-related sexual violence, with little protection or recourse. This suffering is not inevitable.
