Throughout 2025, Save the Children—working directly and in close partnership with national and international organizations—supported conflict‑affected and displaced communities across the country. With support from the Sudan Humanitarian Fund (SHF), our multi‑sectoral response reached families in Khartoum, Gezira, River Nile, Greater Kordofan, Greater Darfur, Gedaref, Blue Nile, and Red Sea states.This flexible, context‑responsive approach ensured that life‑saving assistance reached people in hard‑to-access areas while remaining grounded in local knowledge, participation, and community engagement. We are pleased to share highlights of how SHF‑supported interventions helped restore access to essential services, protect dignity, and strengthen community resilience across multiple sectors and locations. A comprehensive overview of results, geographic coverage, and sector achievements is available in the full SHF 2025 Impact Highlights. Restoring Access to Essential ServicesWater, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH): Access to clean water and safe sanitation is critical for displaced and host communities. WASH interventions improved water supply, upgraded sanitation facilities, and promoted safer hygiene practices. These efforts played a vital role in preventing disease and supporting outbreak response in areas affected by cholera and other public health risks.Health & Nutrition: Save the Children re‑established access to essential primary healthcare and nutrition services in displacement‑heavy and conflict‑affected areas. Through fixed facilities and mobile teams, children and caregivers received treatment for common illnesses, maternal and reproductive healthcare, and services to prevent and treat acute malnutrition—often free of charge and close to home.Food Security & Livelihoods (FSL): Food security and livelihood activities helped families meet immediate food needs while restoring their ability to earn income. By combining short‑term assistance with livelihood inputs and training, households strengthened their resilience, reduced harmful coping mechanisms, and were better equipped to withstand the ongoing crisis.Protection: In a context marked by displacement, psychosocial stress, and heightened protection concerns our protection program supported children and caregivers through child‑friendly spaces, psychosocial support, and community‑based protection mechanisms. These services helped restore a sense of safety, dignity, and normalcy for children living through conflict.Emergency Shelter and Non‑Food Items (NFI): For families displaced by violence or sudden shocks, emergency shelter and NFI assistance provided essential household items and temporary shelter materials. This support enabled families to stabilize, settle, and begin rebuilding their lives in new and often challenging environments. a { text-decoration: none; color: #464feb; } tr th, tr td { border: 1px solid #e6e6e6; } tr th { background-color: #f5f5f5; } Real Stories, Real ImpactBehind every intervention are real families whose lives have been transformed through timely, dignified assistance.“The seeds, tools, and training we received created real opportunities for my family. I learned how to produce vegetable seedlings—especially tomatoes and onions—and sell them in the local market. This has raised our family’s income. These agricultural inputs and knowledge were some of the best forms of support we could have received.”— Mother and farmer, North Kordofan State“Before, the journey for healthcare was long, exhausting, and expensive. Not everyone could afford transport, consultations, or medicines.”— Father of three, Khartoum State“Save the Children brought us 12 water tiers and built emergency latrines. Open defecation stopped completely. They also led cleaning campaigns and hygiene awareness sessions. Together, this eliminated cholera from the camp. We are truly grateful for the hygiene kits we received.”— Mother of two, Blue Nile State a { text-decoration: none; color: #464feb; } tr th, tr td { border: 1px solid #e6e6e6; } tr th { background-color: #f5f5f5; }

New figures show at least 1,360 children were released from armed groups in the eastern province of Ituri in 2025. However, 13,000 children in the province remained in armed groups, meaning only about one in 10 children gained freedom last year.

The current rate of evacuation means it would take 4.5 years for the 20,000 people including 4,000 children needing medical care to leave Gaza, Save the Children said.

Stepping into pageantry at the age of 38, as a working mother and humanitarian, is not about titles or crowns—it’s about visibility. Drawing from her work with Save the Children Thailand and her own lived experience of motherhood, Chanita Craythorne, better known as 'Sammy' shares why supporting mothers is inseparable from supporting children. In this blog, she speaks candidly about the hidden emotional labor mothers carry, the dangers of neglecting maternal wellbeing, and her decision to speak openly about postpartum depression to help break long-standing silence and stigma
