Sudan the world’s largest child displacement crisis. An estimated five million children have been forced to flee their homes. Children, as young as fiveyears old, describe harrowing journeys when they had to flee the fighting. Many have been displaced at least twice since the war broke out. Displaced children often live in overcrowded camps and settlements with limited or no access to adequate shelter, sanitation, and healthcare services – putting them at greater risk of malnutrition and deadly disease outbreaks. The situation is especially dire for children and families trapped in areas affected by direct conflict, insecurity, and lack of protection. Nearly 14 million children – half the country’s children –require humanitarian assistance.

UNICEF has been in Sudan since 1952 and continues to deliver across Sudan’s 18 states, despite challenges.
