Sudan suffered a bitter civil war between the North and the South of the country for 21 years. The fighting took place across the South, causing millions to flee into Uganda and to the North, around Khartoum. The civil war ended in 2005, and although the situation is still volatile, people are slowly trickling back to homelands left in ruins and are having to re-build their lives from scratch. Roads are in disrepair, there is no mains electricity, no running water, few schools and inadequate medical help. A whole generation of Sudanese people are uneducated.
The appalling insecurity and persecution in Darfur, in Western Sudan, continues to force people to flee, many to Khartoum.
IRT is supporting a number of small projects to help the people re-establish their lives, particularly women and children.
