Sudan crisis: funding urgently needed to provide critical aid to those affected

Every humanitarian crisis is a health crisis.

In an emergency, people are at increased risk of death, severe injury, trauma and disease outbreaks; rapid access to health-care services can be the difference between life and death.

Your support today means the WHO can increase the number of vaccines delivered to priority countries; provide access to lifesaving supplies, health services to millions of women and children in humanitarian settings, support WHO in educating and employing millions of health workers; and help countries or eliminate malaria, mother-to-child HIV transmission and other diseases.

In the heart of crisis, conflict, natural disasters and polarized worldviews, we see stories of resilience and hope. We see people come together to face adversity and divisiveness, through shared values of solidarity and empathy.

Your support empowers the WHO to deliver life-saving aid, bring comfort to the suffering, and rebuild shattered lives.

WHO's Response

In Sudan where the humanitarian situation remains critical, WHO emergency health supplies for 3.5 million people, including life-saving nutritional aid for those suffering the complications of severe malnutrition. In the absence of functioning health services, WHO’s vaccine drives are protecting millions of children against measles, rubella and cholera.

Since the mpox disease outbreak on the African continent has been declared a public health emergency of international concern, the WHO has issued an emergency approval for the first ever vaccine against the disease in September. Since then more than 19,000 people have been vaccinated in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) alone. Through expert guidance, training, and access to diagnostics, WHO’s emergency coordination units are working tirelessly to help countries to contain the outbreaks and to prevent further global spread of the disease.

Your support today means that the critically ill can get treatment and access to lifesaving supplies.
