Integrated Health and WASH Emergency Response for Crisis-Affected Populations in Northern Sudan

About this project

ltpgtNorthern State hosts over half a million displaced people, mostly from Khartoum and North Darfur, with 73 percent settling in rural areas and more than 80 percent staying with host communities (IOM DTM). This host-based pattern places significant strain on already limited rural health and WASH systems. Within Northern State, flooding, which accounts for 88 percent of displacement incidents, has repeatedly damaged homes, latrines, and water infrastructure, contaminating surface and shallow water sources and increasing the risk of waterborne disease transmission, including cholera. Informal gathering points and rural villages often lack structured sanitation and clean water access, while health services are stretched by damaged infrastructure, population influx, and supply chain delays linked to the state’s role as a key humanitarian transit corridor. These combined pressures are driving acute health and WASH needs that exceed local capacity.ltbrgtIn Ad Dabbah locality, the total population is 220,441 hosts and 12,100 IDPs, including 7,495 births (per year), 6,753 infants under 1 year, 30,008 children under 5, and 86,281 under 15 years. The number of women of reproductive age is 53,126.ltbrgtMedGlobal aims to strengthen the delivery of integrated essential health and WASH services to crisis-affected populations in Northern State, ensuring continuity of care while addressing critical WASH needs to prevent further disease outbreaks.ltbrgtHealth ServicesltbrgtTarget: 22,800…
