SUD/Humanitarian Aid in the Sudan through UNICEF: A total of 6,1 million people, 17% of Sudan´s population, have been identified as requiring humanitarian assistance in 2014. Active conflicts in the Darfur region, in the Blue Nile and South Kordofan border states have resulted in new internelly displaced people. Conflicts, natural disasters and epidemics continue to impact the humanitarian needs of children and women. Heavy rains and flooding in 2013 affected 500 000 people. A nationwide multi-indicator survey, conducted during the second half of 2013, will provide information on how to better address e.g.nutritional needs of children.
