In August, an agreement for a transitional government – led by Prime Minister Abdalla Hamdok – was signed, providing new hopes and opportunities for Sudan and the Sudanese people. At the same time, the situation of children and families deteriorated amid a continued severe and acute economic crisis. Exchange rate devaluation and high inflation rates drove the cost of living up and household purchasing power down. Shortages of fuel, cash, and bread hit vulnerable children and families hard. The country continues to face protracted, complex and overlapping humanitarian challenges. According to the 2020 Humanitarian Needs Overview (HNO), at the beginning of 2020, 9.3 million people – of which 5.3 million are children – are in need of humanitarian assistance (a sharp increase from the 5.5 million people/2.5 million children in need of humanitarian assistance in 2019). Approximately three million school-age children (around one third of the school-aged population; children between six and thirteen years) do not go to school. There are high disparities between the eighteen states in Sudan. The most vulnerable groups are girls, children affected by conflict, refugees, internally displaced persons (IDPs), children in rural areas, and children from poor households. In addition, there are high drop-out rates, especially for girls and children living in rural areas. ▪ In 2019, 177,082 previously out-of-school children (49.5 per cent girls) from rural, nomadic, internally displaced, refugee and emergency-affected communities accessed formal and non-formal education with UNICEF’s direct support, against an annual target of 194,816 children (50 per cent girls). This result was achieved through the establishment of gender- responsive learning spaces, provision of learning supplies, ‘come to school’ and community sensitisation campaigns and teacher trainings. Of the total number of children reached, 80,008 (50 per cent girls) previously out-of-school children were enrolled in alternative learning programme (ALP) centres and 52,717 (52 per cent girls) in humanitarian situations were supported with access to formal and non-formal education in safe and child-friendly learning spaces. ▪ A total of 222,060 children were reached with teaching and learning materials and other school supplies, such as uniforms and dignity (hygiene) kits for girls against an annual target of 433,934 children (50 per cent girls). Of these children reached, 74,378 vulnerable girls received a full social assistance package. As one of the key barriers to education is family out-of-pocket costs, educational materials and social assistance helped to offset poor families’ schooling costs and encourage enrollment and retention, especially among girls1. Without this vital support, many children would either have been excluded or dropped-out of school. ▪ In response to emergencies in Sudan, UNICEF, in partnership with more than thirty local and international civil society organisations (CSOs) and in collaboration with the Ministry of Education (MoE), supported education in emergency supplies provision to A total of 437,843 children (48 per cent girls) and 3,755 teachers (50 per cent women) have increased capacity for emergency responses at their schools. An additional 1,274 conflict-affected children (40 per cent girls) were supported to take grade eight examinations so that they could complete their basic education. 1 UNICEF’s out-of-school children (OOSC) report issued in 2017 stated that approximately one third of OOSCs do not go to schools due to financial reasons, among other reasons. 5 ▪ With UNICEF support, learning environments were improved in 272 schools, with the construction and rehabilitation of classrooms (216 semi-permanent and permanent classrooms constructed and 409 rehabilitated). Also 115 schools now have access to water, serving 59,296 school children (29,697 girls and 29,599 boys). The total number of schools that were supported by UNICEF were 356, against the annual target of 250 – a 142 per cent increase over the planned target. ▪ In addition, 596 schools were assisted with school grants, and 5,506 parent-teacher association (PTA) members (40 per cent women) received training to develop School Improvement Plans (SIP)2. This achievement is more than double the planned target. ▪ To improve learning outcomes, UNICEF supported capacity-building of teachers by providing teacher training for 4,689 basic education schoolteachers (44 per cent women) to enhance their skills in using learner-centred teaching approaches. The 2019 UNICEF target was 6,000 teachers to be trained. While less teachers could be reached in 2019, this and last year’s achievements bring the overall achievement rate to 90 per cent against the 2018-2021 Country Programme Document (CPD) target of 18,000 teachers trained. ▪ More than 11,111 adolescents (50 per cent girls) were equipped with life skills through the establishment of 1,169 child and adolescent clubs. Implementing the UPSHIFT programme – a social enterprise model to support marginalised and out-of-school adolescents (15 to 17 years of age) in using human-centred design methodologies – was an example of UNICEF’s integrated approach to address adolescent education and child protection issues. The programme focused on experiential learning and developing skills like creativity, communication, critical thinking, and collaboration. The UPSHIFT successfully reached 2,000 adolescents (50 per cent girls) including South Sudanese, Eritrean and Ethiopian refugees in Kassala, Khartoum and Red Sea states. ▪ With UNICEF’s technical and financial support, considerable progress was made towards timely and quality education data (one of the main challenges affecting the education system in Sudan). The Ministry of Education improved

Our grateful thanks go to Colin and Dan for their superb organisation, tolerance and patience, to Christian Aid, Oxfam GB, Save the Children and Tearfund for their financial and logistical support, and to Ambassador Makepeace for his unfailing courtesy, deep knowledge of the current situation and crucial introductions. Our visit to southern Sudan could not have gone ahead without the hospitality and support of Susan from Unicef in Rumbek and Julie from Tearfund at Maluakon. As well as being grateful to them and their organisations we are enormously impressed by their courage and commitment to helping people in such difficult and challenging circumstances. Thanks to the efforts of these and many others we were able to pack a huge number of meetings and discussions into a few days, across several hundred miles of the largest country in Africa. The primary purpose of our visit was to listen and learn. Everyone talked to us of peace, and of their ideas about the sort of political settlement needed to ensure that such a peace would be sustainable, with every part of the country developed for the benefit of all of its people.

Students and faculty there have historically served as vital voices for political change and community and Linda S.

This report describes these recent policies and their effects and makes recommendations for changes aimed at recovering and expanding the traditional productive role of higher education in Sudan. Sudanese Universities Linda S. Bishai is a senior program officer in the United States Institute of Peace’s Education and Training Center–International Programs Division.

  • Common Country Analysis for Sudan Desk Review
    Common Country Analysis for Sudan Desk Review Draft - April 2016 This Common Country Analysis for Sudan collates four issues papers commissioned by the UN and drafted by the Development Studies and Research Institute of the University of Khartoum, summarizing the findings of a desk review of relevant existing documents. The topics of the four issues papers are: (i) Economic development and poverty reduction; (ii) Social services and social protection; (iii) Environment, climate change and disaster risk management; and (iv) Governance and institutional capacity development. UN agencies, funds and programmes in Sudan complemented the information in the issues papers with additional available information. UN staff and key government partners reviewed and commented on various versions of the draft. The documents that formed the basis of the desk review are mentioned in footnotes across the document. In some cases data are scarce, and the most recent data available are used for the various indicators in the analysis, which results in different years reported for different indicators. For purposes of the UNDAF prioritization, the information in this document will be complemented by that in the Millennium Development Goals Report 2015 to be launched in 2016. Similarly, the results on the analysis of the UN’s comparative advantage will help the strategic prioritization for the UNDAF. Contents 1.
