Sudan Emergency: Critical life-saving needs

With the end of the year approaching, UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency, is once again sounding the alarm that our regional Sudan response is severely underfunded when needs continue to grow.

Within the overall needs of $1.03 billion outlined in UNHCR’s Supplementary Appeal revised in June, we are urgently seeking an immediate injection of $52 million in flexible funding to sustain our response in the Central African Republic, Chad, Egypt, Ethiopia, Libya, South Sudan, Sudan and Uganda between now and the end of year. These resources will help prevent additional loss of lives, and support the safety and dignity of individuals who have already endured unimaginable trauma.

Global Report 2023

The Global Report highlights the results achieved by UNHCR and its partners in 2023 as we responded to the needs of a record number of forcibly displaced and stateless people around the world.

The population UNHCR protects and assists reached a record 122.6 million people and funding decreased from its 2022 peak, resulting in a record funding gap. Emergencies hit a new high, with the war in Sudan causing the year's largest displacement crisis, needing more support than received. The number of protracted refugee situations increased to 59 in 37 countries.

Global Appeal 2024

A group of four people, three children and one man sit in the shade. The man helps the youngest child to drink from a cup.

The lives of millions have been torn apart by trauma, conflict, persecution, insecurity or human rights violations, and over 130 million people are expected to be forcibly displaced or stateless by the end of 2024.

From 17 displacement situations to detailed plans for 50+ country operations, the urgent call for investment is louder than ever, with budgeted needs of $10.622 billion for 2024.

The Global Appeal provides information about UNHCR’s plans for the coming year and the funding it needs to protect, assist and empower a record number of forcibly displaced and stateless people, and to help them find solutions to their situations.
