More than 8.6 million people have been uprooted since the start of Sudan's civil war a year ago. Canada's pledge will provide critical aid and protection for displaced people and refugees in #Sudan and neighbouring countries.

At the Humanitarian Conference for #Sudan , global solidarity takes center stage as nations unite to address urgent needs. Together, we're not just pledging aid, but forging alliances, offering hope, and discussing long lasting solutions for peace.

8.5 million people have been displaced since the start of Sudan's Civil War. Filippo Grandi, the UN High Commissioner of Refugees, reflects on what one year of war has done to Sudan. "Peace has to prevail," Grandi says.
