Millions in Sudan Risk Losing Emergency Shelter as Funding Runs Out

UNHCR and the International Organization for Migration warn that funding shortages threaten emergency shelter stocks and essential supplies in Sudan. Of the 15.4 million people in need, agencies can prioritize assistance for just 10%; 936,000 people have received help so far. The conflict has displaced 8.6 million people inside the country and driven more than 4.6 million across borders, while over 5.2 million have returned to areas often devastated by violence. Sudan’s 2026 humanitarian plan seeks US$2.9 billion to assist 20.4 million people but is funded at only around 47%.
