The Africans Rising in collaboration with Pan-African Peacemakers Alliance (PAPA) and other partners launched a humanitarian initiative known as “Pan-African Solidarity Action for Sudan.
The initiative aims to rally and mobilize resources and other humanitarian assistance to support the affected population in the country and in refugee camps, particularly Gorom camp in South Sudan’s capital, Juba.
Since the conflict erupted in Sudan in April, over 14,000 people lost their lives and about 18,000 others have been injured since 15 August 2023.
The UN reported that more than 4.6 million people were internally displaced, and 1.2 million fled the country as refugees with over 1.2 million people could not access essential services for survival and well-being.
Yoal Gatkuoth, a Civil Society Activist and leader of the Pan-African Peacemakers Alliance (PAPA) says it’s crucial to mobilize material and non-material support to address the needs of vulnerable groups, particularly women, children, and elderly people, who have been disproportionately impacted by the conflict
“You can donate essential resources such as food, medical supplies, clothes, blankets, mattresses, rice, flour, children’s toys, dried milk powders, recreational items, diapers, plates, cups, cooking utensils, cooking oil, menstrual supplies, and first aid kits to those affected by the crisis in Gorom,” Gatkuoth said.
Mr. Gatkuoth says the donations can go a long way in alleviating the suffering and improving the overall well-being of the Sudanese people in Gorom camp.
PAPA, as a youth-led action-oriented peace building and advocacy organization, is appealing for political solutions to the ongoing conflicts in Sudan. The humanitarian crisis and human rights violations are exacerbated by the instability and violence that plague the region.
The campaigners shared contacts to donate financially, using the following methods: Paypal, Debit Card, Orange money: +221 786848623, Mpesa pay bill number: 9742415, MTN Ghana: 053465202.
