Inspiring to attend the Sudan Humanitarian Crisis Conference in Cairo last week. NL remains committed to support local actors in the humanitarian response. Lessons learned? 1) (more direct) funding; 2) shifting reporting requirements if needed; 3) inclusion; 4) advocacy 🇳🇱🇸🇩

On 15 April violent clashes between government forces and militias began in the Sudanese capital Khartoum. Fighting is also taking place at various locations outside the capital. Follow our liveblog to stay updated about the situation in Sudan ⤵️ https://t.co/HgvLS2fhEL
