Children in Crisis

Urgent help is needed to save children’s lives

UNICEF is delivering life-saving humanitarian aid to children in the world’s most dangerous places – from Gaza to Sudan. Girls and boys are facing hunger, disease and trauma at levels not seen in decades. Their lives and futures cannot wait.

Sudan: the epicentre of child suffering

  • The city of Al-Fasher has been under siege for over 500 days – 260,000 civilians, including 130,000 children, are trapped without access to aid.
  • Over 600,000 people displaced from Al-Fasher and surrounding camps, half of them children.
  • 6,000 children with severe acute malnutrition are without treatment due to blockades and depleted supplies.

With partners, UNICEF has: 

  • Provided safe drinking water to 9.8 million people
  • Screened 6.7 million children for malnutrition
  • Delivered lifesaving treatment to 422,000 children

Sudan’s children are hungry, displaced and without protection – urgent aid is their only hope of survival.

  • 320,000 children under five at risk of acute malnutrition.

  • Distribute food and supplements to tens of thousands of children
