Hear from Sudanese humanitarians battling to save lives in the face of crippling budget cuts, including ERR volunteers and medical workers on the ground. Conditions for millions of people in Sudan were already catastrophic, and now humanitarians in Sudan are grappling with the abrupt cuts in US funds which have crippled numerous life-saving aid operations. Sudan is experiencing the world's biggest humanitarian crisis on record. Aid groups report a worsening famine, and severe shortages of safe drinking water and medical supplies. The freezing of US humanitarian assistance has forced the closure of almost 80% of the emergency food kitchens in Sudan. This briefing will feature: - Expert testimony from Sudanese humanitarians within the country about how they and their communities have been impacted by the aid cuts. - Reflections on impacts across the country, including Khartoum and Darfur. - Solutions that are being developed by Sudanese civil society to address the funding deficit.
