Africans Rising's
Pan-African Solidarity Action
for the people of Sudan
Context
Sudan has been afflicted by civil wars and coups in spite of her long struggle to institute a stable government. The conflict between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) troops began on 15 April this year. The war has left an estimated 5,000 people dead, dozens wounded, over 7.1 million displaced and destruction of property.
The ongoing conflict has created a humanitarian catastrophe and has had a devastating impact on half of the population. As the war rages, the impact of the situation which has been far reaching has left the general population in a disastrous state with greater threats, risks and vulnerabilities such as sources of livelihood cut off leading to starvation threats, high level of insecurity, people fleeing for safety and a shaken economy. Women, children and other vulnerable groups such as people with disabilities continue to bear the brunt with women being subjected to sexual and gender-based violence and other inhumane acts. Credible reports indicate that over 10 million children are unable to receive essential services for survival and well-being.
Our Intervention
In the spirit of agenda 2063 of the #AfricaWeWant, Africans Rising is in solidarity with the people of Sudan. We are launching a call for a Pan-African Solidarity Action for Sudan on Thursday, September 28 in a virtual event to rally and mobilize resources and other humanitarian assistance to support and prevent any further loss of life and indignity from this conflict to those in the country and refugee camps in the neighboring countries. The people of Africa deserve unity, justice, peace and dignity and this is our clarion call as the Africans Rising movement.
