Sudan Food Security Outlook Report
SUDAN Food Security Outlook February to September 2019 Deteriorating macroeconomic conditions to drive high levels of acute food insecurity in 2019 KEY MESSAGES • Food security has seasonally improved with increased cereal Current food security outcomes, February 2019 availability following the November to February harvest. However, the macroeconomic situation remains very poor and is expected to further deteriorate throughout the projection period, and this will drive continued extremely high food and non-food prices. The negative impacts of high food prices will be somewhat mitigated by the fact that livestock prices and wage labor are also increasing, though overall purchasing power will remain below average. A higher number of households than is typical will face Crisis (IPC Phase 3) or worse outcomes through September. • Between June and September, the lean season in Sudan, Crisis (IPC Phase 3) outcomes are expected in parts of Red Sea, Kassala, Al Gadarif, Blue Nile, West Kordofan, North Kordofan, South Kordofan, and Greater Darfur. Of highest concern are the IDPs in SPLM-N controlled areas of South Kordofan and SPLA-AW controlled areas of Jebel Marra, who have been inaccessible for both assessments and food assistance deliveries. IDPs in these areas are expected to be in Source: FEWS NET FEWS NET classification is IPC-compatible. IPC-compatible analysis follows Emergency (IPC Phase 4) during the August-September peak key IPC protocols but does not necessarily reflect the consensus of national of the lean season. food security partners. • The June to September 2019 rainy season is forecasted to be above average. This is anticipated to lead to flooding in mid-2019 and increase the prevalence of waterborne disease.

SUDAN: Floods, Nationwide State of Emergency Flash Update No
SUDAN: Floods, Nationwide State of Emergency Flash Update No. 6 as of 6 September 2020 KEY POINTS • The floods have killed 99 people and injured another 46. Half a million people are affected and more than 100,000 houses have been damaged or destroyed, according to the government. • The Government of Sudan, on Friday 4 September, declared a three-month, nation-wide state of emergency in response to the flooding, and the Sovereignty Council established a higher committee to mitigate and address the impact of the floods of 2020. • The committee is headed by the Ministry of Labor and Social Development and includes all ministries, the states, and coordinating authorities as well as local, regional and international response organizations. • Heavy rains, upstream of River Nile, in Ethiopia, have caused Blue Nile river levels to rise, downstream in Sudan. The National Meteorology Agency of Ethiopia reports that in the next ten days the rains are expected to continue. SITUATION OVERVIEW Heavy rains continued in Ethiopia and several parts of Sudan during the preceding week. River levels are continuing to rise leading to more flooding, landslides, damage to houses and infrastructure. In total, 506,070 people have been affected in 17 of the 18 states, according to data from the Government’s Humanitarian Aid Commission (HAC). Last week the Nile water levels reach 17.4m - the highest they’d been in 100 years and by Tuesday is forecast to rise another 30cm to 17.7m. Satellite-detected surface waters over Khartoum, Al-Jazirah and White Nile states show that 500 km2 of land appears to be flooded.

This is mainly attributed to low access to and coverage of safe drinking water, and sanitation, environmental sanitation and low vaccination coverage; exacerbated by weak health and WASH infrastructures. The country experienced the worst flooding since 2015 creating favourable ground for emergence and aggravation of water-borne and vector-borne diseases such as cholera, dysentery, dengue fever, malaria, etc.

Sudan (Annual Programme)
Sudan (Annual programme) Main objectives UNHCR's main objectives in Sudan were to pursue recognition of refugee rights through strengthening of the asylum sys- tem; ensure protection and assistance to urban and camp-based refugees; seek Sudan durable solutions for refugees by facilitat- ing voluntary repatriation; resettle those who cannot be locally integrated; reha- bilitate the infrastructure and the envi- ronment in and around closed and vacated camps and improve livelihoods of refugees and host communities; pro- mote gender equality among refugees, returnees, and within host communities; and implement policy priorities on the needs of women, older refugees, and chil- dren including adolescents. Impact • As a result of capacity building and training provided to the Office of the Commissioner for Refugees (COR) and local authorities, 95 per cent of asylum applications were processed without delays; there was a sharp fall in the number of reported cases of refoulement; and the regional COR office in Kassala assumed management of the asylum reception centre as well as responsibility for refugee between the host population and the remaining status determination (RSD) processing in eastern refugee groups.

Dashed lines on maps represent approximate border lines for which there may not yet be full agreement. Cover photo: ©FAO The Sudan 2020 Flood impact rapid assessment September 2020 A joint assessment with the Government of the Sudan Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations Rome, 2020 Assessment highlights • Torrential rains and floods combined with the historical overflow of the River Nile and its tributaries caused devastating damages to agriculture and livestock across the Sudan. In the rainfed agriculture sector, around 2 216 322 ha of the planted area was flooded, representing 26.8 percent of cultivated areas in the 15 assessed states. • The production loss due to the crop damage by floods is estimated at 1 044 942 tonnes in the rainfed areas. Sorghum – which is the main staple food in the country – constitutes about 50 percent of the damaged crops, followed by sesame at about 25 percent, then groundnut, millet and vegetables. • The extent of the damage to planted areas in the irrigated sector is estimated at 103 320 ha, which constitutes about 19.4 percent of the total cultivated area. The production loss is under estimation.
