The Sudan Crisis Response Plan 2023, developed by the International Organization for Migration (IOM), addresses the urgent humanitarian needs resulting from the armed conflict between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF).

Pillars & Objectives

Pillar: Save Lives and Respond to Needs Through Humanitarian Assistance and Protection
Objectives:
  • Provide life-saving humanitarian assistance to newly displaced IDPs, refugees, and populations affected by man-made or natural hazards.
  • Improve living conditions for IDPs, refugees, and returnees in protracted displacement situations by ensuring access to essential services and livelihood opportunities.
  • Assist crisis-affected host communities where services are unavailable or overstretched.
  • Support internal and international migrants in need of direct assistance or movement assistance including humanitarian evacuation.
  • Build capacity of stakeholders including government, NGOs, CSOs, and CBOs to provide life-saving services to crisis-affected and vulnerable communities.
Pillar: Address the Drivers and Longer-Term Impacts of Crises and Displacement, Supporting Durable Solutions and Investing in Crisis Prevention
Objectives:
  • Improve access to water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) services in transitional and post-crisis situations.
  • Promote community stabilization by addressing the drivers and effects of forced displacement and irregular migration.
  • Facilitate durable solutions for IDPs, returnees, and refugees by supporting voluntary return, integration, or resettlement.
  • Enhance peacebuilding and conflict resolution mechanisms to mitigate future conflicts and promote social cohesion.
  • Strengthen health systems and include migrants in health strategies to build resilience against public health threats.
Pillar: Strengthen Preparedness and Reduce Disaster Risk
Objectives:
  • Develop disaster risk reduction (DRR) strategies and mechanisms to prevent displacement triggered by natural hazards and environmental degradation.
  • Build community resilience to future disaster risks through early warning systems and capacity building of local authorities and communities.
  • Implement emergency preparedness measures to improve humanitarian response and services during crises.
  • Strengthen health components of preparedness and risk reduction by training local health workers and pre-positioning essential medical supplies.
Pillar: Contribute to an Evidence-Based and Efficient Crisis Response System
Objectives:
  • Regularly capture, process, and provide multi-layered information products on displaced and mobile populations to inform humanitarian assistance and response.
  • Use displacement tracking methodologies to monitor population movements and provide updates on the scale of displacement.
  • Conduct multi-sectoral needs assessments to identify sectoral needs of affected populations and improve coordination among humanitarian partners.
  • Provide rapid emergency and biometric registrations to guide direct assistance to vulnerable people.
