BACKGROUND
- 9 million people live on less than $1 a day
- 1 in 9 children die before their 5th birthday
- 43% of adults are illiterate
Sudan, Africa's largest country, has been at war for over three decades. Civil war ravaged the country, killing over 2 million people, and injuring thousands more. Four million Sudanese have fled their homes.
As severe food shortages occur across southern Africa, millions of Sudanese people are at risk of starvation. Recurrent droughts over several years have caused poor harvests and drinking water shortages in many areas. The combination of famine and violence has created a tragic cycle of suffering. For many Sudanese the essentials of life such as sufficient food, clean water, and health and education services are simply not available.
ISLAMIC RELIEF IN SUDAN
Islamic Relief's connection to Sudan dates from the devastating famine that gripped the country in the 1980's - Islamic Relief was founded as a response to that desperate situation. Islamic Relief began working in Sudan in 1984.
Islamic Relief has expanded its operations to southern Sudan, the Blue Nile and the Nuba mountains. The emphasis of the program is post-war recovery, integrated rehabilitation and community development. Islamic Relief is also responding to the crisis in Darfur.
Islamic Relief's emergency team began work in Darfur in April 2004, providing displaced people with food and shelter. The Islamic Relief team is managing the Kerinding II camp for displaced families, many of whom had been living in local schools.
The camp now accommodates over 6,000 people who regularly receive food, plastic sheeting, soap, jerry cans and local building materials to build traditional homes. Islamic Relief has also registered 100 orphans in Kerinding II who will receive additional support.
Islamic Relief staff built and run a clinic in Kerinding II that services the camp as well as the local population. Workshops on AIDS/HIV awareness are carried out regularly, as well as counselling for victims of rape. Islamic Relief also supplies Al-Geneina Hospital and Kulbus Hospital with medicines periodically.
Islamic Relief also assists in the areas of education, clean water, training women to make stoves, and providing aid to the locals in the areas where the refugee camps are situated.
