This event brought together academics and healthcare professionals to shed light on the healthcare crisis in Sudan.

With more than 70% of Sudan’s healthcare facilities currently non-functional according to the International Rescue Committee, speakers will discuss the challenges of delivering care during this increasingly protracted conflict, with insights from research and experience. The event will provide an opportunity to share reflections about what political and humanitarian responses, at local and international levels, may be helpful.
