Sudanese Aid Workers at Risk of Job Losses Amidst Refugee Crisis

Sudanese aid workers are facing hundreds of job losses as organizations suspend programs in areas deemed unsafe due to the ongoing conflict. More than 100 Sudanese workers with Save the Children have been informed that they will lose their jobs, while other international and national aid organizations have also suspended programs, leading to job losses or unpaid salaries for local workers. Donors have refused to continue funding salaries when programs are suspended, exacerbating the situation. The conflict has already caused a significant reduction in the number of aid organizations operating in Sudan, impacting the country's ability to respond to the needs of millions of people.
