The CDP Sudan Humanitarian Crisis Fund supports vulnerable, marginalized and at-risk groups to help prevent and address famine, meet critical needs, and build longer-term solutions that enable communities to recover.
Adeela received $50,000 to support emergency response rooms through microgrants. Priorities are determined in coordination with the Localization Coordination Council, which ensures continuous aid delivery, supports the restoration of critical infrastructure, and promotes civic participation in governance during and after the ongoing war.
In 2025, Adeela received an additional $50,000 to strengthen its efforts in humanitarian response in Sudan by sustaining its Civil Society Hubs in Kassala and Kampala and the corresponding human resources needed to operate the spaces, a small grant to respond to dire humanitarian need, and efforts to develop a humanitarian response strategy for Adeela and its partners.

The Humanitarian Leadership Academy received $26,500 through Save the Children UK in 2025 to convene a strategic dialogue at the Humanitarian Exchange (HX) event in Kampala that elevates local Sudanese leadership, drives peer learning and generates context-responsive solutions to complex crises. By facilitating collaboration between frontline responders, diaspora networks and global actors, HX aims to strengthen humanitarian effectiveness and equity where needed most.
People-to-People received $87,225 to support the Emergency Response Rooms (ERRs) through microgrants, with decision-making made in coordination with the Localization Coordination Council (LCC) who are ensuring continuous aid delivery, supporting the restoration of critical infrastructure, and promoting civic participation in governance during and after the ongoing war.

The Sudan Crisis Coordination Unit, through the Sudanese Humanitarian Foundation, received $50,000 in 2025 to create a one-stop shop for coordinating support between local mutual aid responders, diaspora groups, international and national NGOs, and donors, enhancing and tangibly supporting locally led humanitarian response in Sudan.
