“Nowhere in Sudan is safe any more”
Since 15 April 2023 – exactly three years ago – an armed conflict has been raging in Sudan between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and their former allies the Rapid Support Forces (RSF). Tens of thousands of people have lost their lives. Around 33 million people – two thirds of the population – are dependent on humanitarian aid and 13 million people have been displaced. Switzerland is providing assistance, focusing on food security, protection of the civilian population, support for displaced persons and peacebuilding, as Valérie Liechti, head of the Africa Division at the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC), explains in an interview.
