This graph is just mindboggling.

'I lost seven family members last year, and I lost four in this past week... This is one of the biggest crises and wars of our times and it's going completely unnoticed.'
A power cry for help for her beloved Sudan by poet and UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency Good Will Ambassador Emi Mahmoud.👇

'We need to put an end to this nightmare. Don't forget about the people of Sudan.'

The ever-growing number of refugees from Sudan:

Thank you Development Canada for supporting partners of the Sudan regional refugee response. It will help address critical needs for women & children who are bearing the brunt of this brutal conflict, along with their host communities.
