A Call from SSAWORG for Urgent Global Solidarity

On April 15, 2023, conflict erupted in Sudan. Two years later, the world remains largely silent — but the suffering has only grown louder. Over 13 million people have been displaced, making Sudan one of the largest and fastest-growing displacement crises in the world. Entire communities are fleeing violence, hunger, and fear, with women and children bearing the heaviest weight.

The numbers are staggering.

• 1 in 3 Sudanese is displaced — nearly 13 million people

• 24.6 million face acute food insecurity

• 637,000 are in famine-like conditions (IPC 5)

• 17 million children are out of school

• Only 25% of health facilities are still operational

• Diseases like cholera, dengue, and malaria are spreading rapidly

• Explosive remnants litter conflict zones, increasing civilian casualties

• 3.2 million people, mostly women and girls, are at risk of gender-based violence

These aren’t just numbers. These are lives. Families torn apart. Classrooms abandoned. Fields left to dry. Futures paused indefinitely.

SSAWORG: Building Action Beyond Awareness

At SSAWORG (Support Survivors of African War), we believe that justice begins with listening — deeply — and acting collectively. Our work lies at the intersection of agroecology, decolonial resistance, care, and creative worldmaking. And in this moment, we are mobilizing.

We are preparing a humanitarian aid container destined for Sudan, filled with essential supplies: food, medical aid, clothing, and educational resources. But more than that, we are creating a platform for collective action — a space where voices from the diaspora, from the margins, and from the frontlines can be heard, amplified, and supported.

The Silence Must End

Sudan is not a trending topic. It is a human catastrophe — and an opportunity for global solidarity. We invite you to join us in refusing silence.
