UNHCR Sudan

🚨 11.6 million people forced to flee are at risk of losing life-saving aid. Not because the needs are gone, but because the funding is. This is the biggest humanitarian aid cut in over a decade. 👉 Donate now: unh.cr/6878b5640

The @WorldBank approved a $76.3M project to expand clean energy & digital access in #Sudan🇸🇩, reaching 150,000 people including refugees, returnees, IDPs & host communities across 4 states. Addressing urgent needs & long-term recovery. Press Release 👇 developmentactionrefugees.org/whats-new/part…

Today UNHCR launched a report confirming what I have seen in many places with my own eyes. Funding cuts and dramatic levels of displacement have a devastating impact on millions of refugees around the world — with entire regions at risk of instability. unhcr.org/news/briefing-…

Across the globe, funding shortfalls are forcing UNHCR to scale back life-saving support for millions of forcibly displaced people. We asked UNHCR staff in the field: What does this crisis look like from where you stand? Here's what they've told us.

📍 مليط، شمال دارفور, #السودان🇸🇩 شركاؤنا يلبون الاحتياجات العاجلة لـ 1,000 أسرة نزحت من الفاشر، من خلال توزيع مواد أساسية: بطانيات، حصائر، أغطية بلاستيكية، أطقم مطبخ وعبوات مياه. الاحتياجات الإنسانية ما تزال هائلة. الدعم العاجل ضروري لإنقاذ الأرواح.

📍 Mellit, North #Darfur🇸🇩 Our partners are supporting 1,000 displaced families who fled El Fasher with essentials: blankets, mats, plastic sheets, kitchen sets & jerrycans. Humanitarian needs remain immense. More support is critical to save lives. #KeepEyesOnSudan

📍ولاية النيل الأزرق🇸🇩 آلاف العائدين من اللاجئين السودانيين يعيشون في ملاجئ مؤقتة، معرضين لظروف جوية قاسية ويعانون من نقص الاحتياجات الأساسية. #المفوضية وزعت مواد إغاثة وخيامًا عائلية لأكثر من3,000 أسرة، لتصل إلى نحو40,000 شخص. كل مادة إغاثية تمنح الأمان. كل خيمة تعيد الكرامة.

📍 Blue Nile State 🇸🇩 Thousands of Sudanese refugee returnees live in makeshift shelters, exposed to harsh weather & lacking basics. #UNHCR delivered relief kits & family tents to 3,000+ families, reaching 40,000 people. Every item brings safety. Every tent restores dignity.

UNHCR is being forced to scale back operations. We’re prioritizing life-saving aid, but the gap has driven operations to the brink, also jeopardizing efforts aimed at achieving self reliance. unhcr.org/news/briefing-…

Major cuts to aid budgets have left people fleeing wars in #Sudan and beyond without the assistance and protection they need, @UNHCRinSudan warns news.un.org/en/story/2025/…

“We fled & suffered as refugees. The Sudanese welcomed us. Now, we welcome them with the little we have.” In Girba camp, Eritrean refugees open their homes and hearts to Sudanese families displaced by war. In times of crisis and limited resources, this is true solidarity. 🎥⬇️

مامادو ديان بالدي: "اجتماع مثمر في #الخرطوم مع وزير الداخلية بابكر سمره. ناقشنا التحديات الرئيسية التي تواجه اللاجئين والنازحين داخليًا والعائدين إلى #السودان، مع التأكيد على أهمية الحماية. هناك حاجة ملحّة للدعم العاجل لاستعادة الخدمات الأساسية وتسهيل الحلول المستدامة. #السلام"

Fruitful meeting in #Khartoum with Minister of Interior Babiker Samra. We discussed many challenges affecting refugees, IDPs & people starting to return to #Sudan. Reaffirmation of protection. Urgent support needed to restore services & facilitate durable solutions. #Peace

في بورتسودان، نظّمت مفوضية اللاجئين بالتعاون مع معتمدية اللاجئين ورشة عمل لمدة يومين جمعت 30 من موظفي الحماية وتحديد وضع اللاجئ من 7 ولايات لتعزيز نظام تحديد وضع اللاجئ في #السودان🇸🇩. ركّزت الورشة على تحسين عدالة وكفاءة إجراءات اللجوء وتسريع اتخاذ القرارات.

In Port Sudan, #UNHCR & COR gathered 30 protection & RSD staff from 7 states for a 2-day workshop to strengthen refugee status determination in #Sudan🇸🇩. The workshop focused on making asylum systems fair, efficient & rights-based, from better interviews to quicker decisions.

مامادو ديان بالدي: "من المؤلم أن أشاهد حجم الدمار الهائل في #الخرطوم اليوم، هذه المدينة التي لطالما استقبلت آلاف اللاجئين بسخاء. طريق إعادة الإعمار طويل، لكن السلطات والشركاء يبذلون أقصى ما في وسعهم لتقديم الدعم. ويبقى التزامنا ثابتًا في البقاء وتقديم كل ما نستطيع من دعم."

Heartbreaking to see the immense destruction in #Khartoum today, a city that has generously welcomed thousands of refugees. Huge work ahead to rebuild but authorities & partners are doing their very best to support. Our commitment to stay & support as much as we can stands.

In Khartoum, #UNHCR & Sudan’s Commission for Refugees held a refugee protection workshop with 40+ representatives from gov’t, police, judiciary & partners. Key focus: rights, responsibilities & non-refoulement, strengthening 🇸🇩#Sudan’s refugee protection framework.

Grateful to Sudanese senior officials for the constructive dialogue with UNHCR’s Regional Director. UNHCR remains committed to working closely with the authorities to support those most in need, within the limits of available resources.

🇫🇷 On France’s National Day, we thank the people and government of France for standing with refugees and displaced families in #Sudan🇸🇩. Your support and solidarity help us protect and assist those uprooted by conflict. Merci Beaucoup! #BastilleDay #KeepEyesOnSudan
