  • Sudan: The world's worst humanitarian crisis
    Aug 20 2025

    Sudan's humanitarian catastrophe extends far beyond immediate malnutrition. Over 13.6 million children need urgent assistance, while 10.8 million people have fled their homes.

    The crisis encompasses destroyed healthcare systems, compromised water supplies, educational collapse, and widespread psychological trauma.

    Famine conditions now exist in multiple locations across Darfur and beyond. International funding shortfalls are crippling response efforts. The conflict has created a perfect storm of displacement, disease, and deprivation that threatens to devastate an entire generation of Sudanese children with consequences lasting decades.

    In this episode of The Discussion I speak with international aid advocate, Tim Costello.
