Darfur Crisis
Sudan Expels the IRC
Darfur has been described as one of the world's worst humanitarian crises. Now, Sudan's forced closure of IRC aid programs in Darfur, as well as North and East Sudan, puts at risk the lives of 1.75 million men, women and children who depend on them.

The IRC in Sudan
The IRC has worked in Sudan since 1981, aiding communities hit by conflict or natural disaster. In Southern Sudan - effectively a semi-autonomous country since 2005 - the IRC now directly helps more than 450,000 people.
