Take Action for Sudan.

Peace Direct is raising funds for peacebuilders in Sudan, who are building peace on the frontlines of the world’s most severe humanitarian crisis.

Three years of war. The world’s worst humanitarian crisis. Take action now.

15 April 2026 marks three years since war erupted between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) in Sudan, with no end in sight.

And local communities are paying the price. Millions do not have access to their basic rights and survival needs. 

The statistics are so horrifying that it may seem like local peacebuilding is not enough to make a difference in Sudan.  

But the reality is that thousands of Sudanese peacebuilders are helping millions of people, and have been for the last three years. While governments look away, they are feeding millions and keeping communities together, with extremely limited resources.

26,000 peacebuilders have supported millions of Sudanese people.

We are partnering with local organisation Adeela to raise funds for Sudanese peacebuilders to continue their lifesaving work.

Join us. Take action for Sudan today.

What is happening in Sudan today?

Sudan is experiencing the world’s most severe humanitarian crisis and yet it is one of the most neglected in mainstream media. After three years of escalating conflict, the numbers speak for themselves.

  • 25 million people are facing food insecurity.
  • 33.7 million people need humanitarian assistance.
  • 14.5 million people are displaced.
  • 14 million children are out of school.
  • Only 10% of humanitarian funding needed has been secured. 

Despite the relentless violence and minimal international support or attention, Sudanese people are coming together to support the needs of local people themselves.

Donate now to support Adeela.

How is our partner Adeela helping?

On the frontline in Sudan: local peacebuilders are feeding thousands, rebuilding communities and laying the groundwork for lasting peace.

While the world looks away, youth-led organisation Adeela are doing what international organisations cannot. Not just responding to the crisis, but working to end it.

Adeela supports Sudan’s Emergency Response Rooms (ERRs), community-led groups keeping people alive in the face of unimaginable violence. From delivering food and emergency aid to millions of people affected by the conflict, to building the skills, resources and connections that communities need to heal long after the fighting stops.

Because in Sudan, humanitarian aid and peacebuilding aren’t two separate things. Feeding a family today is an act of peace. Strengthening a community’s ability to organise, advocate and recover is how you prevent the next crisis.

This is what peacebuilding looks like.

Local peacebuilders aren't just capable, they are architects of recovery.

Sudan's Emergency Response Room's have been vital in making sure people across the country have access to food, water and aid. 26,000 volunteers have supported 12 million Sudanese people.

As the conflict enters its 4th year of escalation, will you support Adeela to continue their lifesaving work today?

A crisis made worse by international aid cuts

In 2025, as war continued to devastate Sudan, governments around the world cut international aid funding. Trump’s closure of USAID was the most severe blow.

The consequences of this in Sudan have been devastating. Adeela were forced to stop work on four major projects that year. Projects that focused on delivering urgent humanitarian support. Including shutting down many community kitchens, which had been providing free meals to families facing extreme hunger. These kitchens were often the only source of food for entire neighbourhoods.

Since then, Adeela have remained committed to setting up more community kitchens and ERRs. This project, which was nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize, has seen Adeela feed up to 12,000 people daily through community kitchens. Despite unimaginable set backs, local peacebuilders continue.

Sudanese peacebuilders are among the last remaining lifelines for communities facing violence, famine, and displacement. Support them today.

What your support makes possible:

Our partner, Adeela, is on the ground changing what crisis response can look like. With a growing network of ERRs and community-driven initiatives, from community kitchens to mobile health convoys.

  • Community kitchens lifting spirits in Sudan's besieged cities.

    El Fasher, Kadugli and Dilling have been cut off from supply routes by Sudan's civil war. Food prices have soared, and for the people trapped inside these cities, hunger has become part of daily life. Our partner, Adeela has responded by supporting community kitchens that do more than feed people; they provide a place to gather and to find some human connection in the middle of a crisis.

  • Giving Sudan's silenced voices somewhere to speak.

    When repression silences people, finding safe ways to be heard becomes an act of resistance. Adeela has supported a magazine and digital calendar documenting political violence in Sudan. Giving marginalised citizens, and young people in particular, a platform to articulate their views on justice, identity and what kind of future they want for their country.

Support Sudan’s local peacebuilders on the third anniversary of war.

Three years ago, war escalated in Sudan. Today, it remains the world’s largest humanitarian crisis and Sudanese peacebuilders are still on the frontlines, working tirelessly to protect their communities and build pathways to peace.

Your donation to our work with Adeela will help ensure that they can continue their work. From running community kitchens to provide people with food, to mobile health clinics where people can receive vital aid, Adeela are already doing the work needed, will you help them to continue?

Local peacebuilders understand what their communities need. Support them today.

This is a shared appeal, with all proceeds being equally shared to support Adeela’s work in Sudan, as well as Peace Direct’s efforts to support local peacebuilding around the world.
