[Gilbert Mutai @GilbertSMutai]

Education is a human right.
Everyone, including @refugees, has the right to access quality education.

Thanks to @MastercardFdn, UNHCR supported the Gedaref State Ministry of Education🇸🇩 in facilitating statewide intermediate exams for 20,000 students including IDPs & refugees.📚

In #Gedaref, community-led nurseries are turning seeds into solutions. With @UNHCR & Forest National Corporation, reforestation is creating jobs, empowering women & youth, and restoring degraded lands. 🌍🌿

Human rights are like air: we need them to live—but we only notice them when we’re suffocating. Today, too many are denied their rights and silenced.

With @GlblCtzn, we’re urging leaders to listen and put human rights where they belong—at the top of the global agenda.

[Abubakarr Talib Jalloh @abutalibjay74]

Today, I had the privilege of delivering an ambulance and vital medical supplies to the #Khartoum State Ministry of Health on behalf of @UNHCRinSudan.

This support will boost lifesaving healthcare services for residents, refugees, returnees and other vulnerable people in Khartoum.

[UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency @Refugees]

Sudan needs peace.

Displaced families have lost everything.

Now, they’re staying in temporary shelters that can’t support them for long.

The world can’t turn a blind eye to their suffering any longer.

[Filippo Grandi @FilippoGrandi]

May you rest in peace, Pope Francis.

You stood up and spoke out — relentlessly — for the poor, the persecuted, the victims of war, the refugees, the migrants.

May you continue to give us faith and courage in this brutal world.

@Pontifex

[UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency @Refugees]

Sudan needs peace.

And until then, people need support.

@KMHambrouck, Representative for @UNHCRinSudan, delivers a powerful reminder of what’s at stake.

.@UNHCRinSudan returned to #WadMadani in Sudan's🇸🇩 Al Jazirah State to distribute much needed core relief items to returning IDPs. Over 1k households reached in Wad Madani last week.

Concerted effort is needed in areas of return to ensure sustained returns.

[Gilbert Mutai @GilbertSMutai]

In Al Jazirah🇸🇩, refugees faced harassment & other violations and are grappling with loss of belongings & vital documentation and lack of access to services.
Interviews w/ refugees in #WadMadani & #AlHasahisa underscore the need for greater support.
@UNHCRinSudan

[Gilbert Mutai @GilbertSMutai]

Pleased, to meet the Asst Commissioner of Refugees in Jazirah state, Mr. Mohamed Hashim Hafez, on our visit to #WadMadani last week after a period of almost 2 years of no access to humanitarian workers due to the Sudan conflict.
Assured him of @UNHCRinSudan's continued support.

[UNHCR Sudan @UNHCRinSudan]

Two years into the war in #Sudan🇸🇩.

🙏 Thank you to our donors for standing with the people of Sudan when they needed it most. Your support has helped protect and assist millions.

The crisis is far from over and needs are greater than ever. We count on your continued support.💙

Pictures from our farewell in Gedaref town before the deployment of teams to the field units👇
Each field unit is comprised of protection, registration, field staff & drivers.

Proud of Gedaref team for taking on this challenge - the essence of staying and delivering!

[Gilbert Mutai @GilbertSMutai]

Since January, @UNHCRinSudan established field units in the Gedaref refugee camps🇸🇩

This has:
✅brought UNHCR staff closer to refugees
✅led to closer engagement with @CommissionForRe, partners & local community
✅enhanced service monitoring
✅reduced financial costs

[Gilbert Mutai @GilbertSMutai]

"The presence of #UNHCR on the ground fosters a stronger protection environment," said Abdelrazig, leading field operations in Um Rakuba & Babikri.

"Staff engage more closely with refugees, provide real-time support, and build stronger relationships w/ community leaders."

[Gilbert Mutai @GilbertSMutai]

#Sudan’s war enters its third year. #UNHCR remains present in Sudan🇸🇩 supporting those displaced by the violence.
Millions affected need help now: refugees, IDPs, returnees and host communities.
The world must not look away.
This crisis demands attention and action.
@UNHCRinSudan

[Gilbert Mutai @GilbertSMutai]

Two years into #Sudan’s war, nearly 13 million people have been forced to flee their homes.
🇸🇩Sudan is now one of the world’s largest displacement crises.
UNHCR & partners are on ground but challenged with deep global funding cuts.
@KMHambrouck

[Gilbert Mutai @GilbertSMutai]

The people of Sudan 🇸🇩 need #PEACE.
Every day without peace costs lives and deepens suffering.

@UNHCRinSudan @KMHambrouck

[Kristine Hambrouck @KMHambrouck]

Two years of conflict have made #Sudan one of the world’s largest displacement crises. Over 12 million people have been forced to flee their homes to find safety both within the country and across borders. Civilians continue to pay the highest price. The world cannot look away
