Diaspora Humanitarian Engagement in Sudan Real-Time Review 2023
Sudan has long had an active diaspora, but the recent conflict has spurred the creation of a number of new, informal diaspora networks. From diaspora actors identified, a majority reside in the United States or United Kingdom, with also hubs in the Gulf states and Australia.
Executive summary
Since the outbreak of conflict in Sudan on April 15th, 2023, there has been a rapidly increasing humanitarian crisis in the country, particularly in the hard-hit areas of Khartoum, Darfur, and to some extent to Kordofan region. As international humanitarian organizations have scrambled to adapt to the new operating environment, the Sudanese diaspora has played a large role in sharing information, resources, and material aid to the country.
However, there is little information about the composition and support provided by the Sudanese diaspora, as well as how diaspora actors and international actors could better coordinate to effectively address emerging humanitarian needs. To that end, Diaspora Emergency Action and Coordination (DEMAC) has commissioned a real-time-review (RTR) of diaspora engagement in Sudan.
