The UK has announced a £12 million funding package to provide life-saving aid to people in need in Sudan. The funding will be used to provide food, water, shelter and medical care to those who have been affected by the conflict and humanitarian crisis in the country.
The UK will also provide political support to the Sudanese-led transition to democracy and human rights. The UK will work with the Sudanese government to support the implementation of the peace agreement, promote human rights and strengthen democracy.
David Lammy, the UK’s Shadow Foreign Secretary for Africa, said:
“Sudan is facing a humanitarian catastrophe. Millions of people are in need of food, water and shelter. The UK is providing £12 million to help meet these needs.
“The UK will also provide political support to the Sudanese-led transition to democracy and human rights. We will work with the Sudanese government to implement the peace agreement, promote human rights and strengthen democracy.
“Sudan must not be forgotten. The international community must take action to prevent a humanitarian crisis and to support the Sudanese people in their quest for peace and democracy.”
The UK’s funding package is part of a wider international effort to address the humanitarian crisis in Sudan. The UN has appealed for $1.6 billion to meet the needs of people in Sudan. The UK is one of the largest donors to the UN appeal.
The humanitarian crisis in Sudan is a result of the conflict between the government and rebel groups. The conflict has displaced millions of people and has led to a severe food crisis. The UN estimates that 13 million people in Sudan are in need of food assistance.
The UK is committed to supporting the Sudanese people in their quest for peace and democracy. The UK will continue to provide humanitarian aid to those in need and will work with the Sudanese government to implement the peace agreement and promote human rights.
