Guardian

The unspeakable tragedy of Sudan is the suffering of its children. Nearly 5M young ones are on the run, while countless others waste away from hunger. In crowded refugee camps, children cry through the night from empty stomachs. Once-ambitious students who nurtured dreams now sit idle, their education stolen. Each day brings new horrors: child soldiers, sexual violence, and the crushing weight of trauma. A generation stands at the precipice, their childhood shattered by adult conflicts they never chose.
