Sudan is approaching the end of the third year of its devastating and bloody civil war. The Sudanese conflict can be characterized not only as one of the most severe crises facing the international community, but also one of the most neglected.

What began as a power struggle between rival military elites could lead to a comprehensive collapse of political authority, social cohesion and economic life. In addition, the war has become a regional destabilizer and latent global risk.

If the international community continues to disregard the Sudan war or not view it as a priority, the risk of the country becoming a permanently fractured state grows, with consequences that will reverberate across Africa, the Middle East and beyond. And because of the scale, duration and systemic nature of the conflict, it demands a far more robust international response and sustained humanitarian engagement.

The humanitarian consequences of the war have reached new levels. Large segments of the population face chronic insecurity, not only due to violence but also the collapse of the basic systems required for survival. Food production and distribution networks have been shattered, which has led to widespread hunger and the emergence of famine-like conditions in multiple regions.
