July 2023 – On April 15, 2023, armed clashes broke out between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the Rapid Support Forces, leading to mass displacement within and outside of Sudan, as well as significant protection violations and a lack of access to basic food, water, health, nutrition and other services for vulnerable people. The clashes have increased humanitarian needs within Sudan and its neighbouring countries, many of which had been experiencing protected crises prior to the outbreak of this conflict. The International Organization for Migration (IOM) provides humanitarian assistance to populations facing a heightened risk of vulnerability, including internally displaced persons (IDPs), refugees, migrants and host communities. IOM provides assistance in multiple sectors, including protection, shelter, emergency non-food items, water, sanitation and hygiene services and camp coordination and management. With GAC's support, the IOM is responding to the needs of vulnerable people in South Sudan fleeing the conflict in Sudan. Project activities include: (1) providing emergency shelter kits, non-food items and multi-purpose cash assistance; (2) coordinating camp management, site care and maintenance; (3) providing emergency water, sanitation and hygiene support; (4) providing logistics and transporting vulnerable people from remote border areas to points where they can access critical services; and (5) mainstreaming protection and gender mainstreaming across humanitarian response activities.

The expected outcomes for this project include: (1) increased access to emergency health care, shelter and relief items; (2) increased access to emergency water, sanitation and hygiene services; (3) increased access to protection services; and (4) enhanced logistical support to the humanitarian response to vulnerable people fleeing Sudan. The expected ultimate outcome is lives saved, suffering alleviated and human dignity maintained in countries experiencing humanitarian crises or acute food insecurity.
