Displaced by war, young Sudanese turn to entrepreneurship to survive | Sudan war News | Al Jazeera

Yousra Hussein, who graduated in medical laboratory sciences, started the 'Golden Women' initiative in 2022 in Nyala to empower women through training in marketing and entrepreneurship. The civil war in Sudan, which began in April 2023, forced her to flee from Nyala to Sennar and then to Kassala, where she had to start over. Amid economic collapse and limited job opportunities, she revived her initiative to help young women earn income, despite facing funding and skills training shortages.
