Community priorities and perceptions in South Darfur, Sudan

Community priorities and perceptions in South Darfur Sudan

In September 2024, Ground Truth Solutions (GTS), in partnership with DataQ, began a project to explore what the humanitarian situation looks like from the perspective of people in Sudan. We selected two states as the focus of the study: Gedaref and South Darfur. We selected these states because at the time of data collection they hosted the largest numbers of IDPs displaced after the outbreak of the civil war in April 2023, excluding the inaccessible North Darfur. (8) As case studies they also represent one state from the Sudanese Armed Forces-controlled east, and one state from the Rapid Support Forces-controlled west. This report contains insights from 427 people in South Darfur state, provided in November and December 2024 via a face-to-face survey questionnaire.

The insights from Gedaref can be found here.
