WFP Sudan Country Brief - April 2026
Country: Sudan Source: World Food Programme Please refer to the attached file. KEY HIGHLIGHTS • WFP assisted 3.1 million people in April. • Since the beginning of 2026, WFP has been unable to achieve the monthly average reach of 2025 (4 million). The decrease in reach has been driven by funding shortages, access constraints, and administrative delays. • In April, 798,000 people were reached in areas projected to be already facing or at risk of catastrophic hunger (IPC phase 4-5) covering 62 percent of the 1.3 million food-insecure population in those locations. • Out of the 3.1 million people assisted in April, WFP reached 2.9 million crisis-affected people with food and cash assistance. • WFP also reached 1.1 million people through CBT in April. • WFP provided integrated nutrition support to 203,000 people, including children under five and pregnant and breastfeeding women and girls (PBWG). • In Tawila, North Darfur, home to the largest population of internally displaced persons (IDPs), WFP delivered life-saving emergency food and nutrition assistance to more than 450,000 people. • From 8 to 14 April, WFP Deputy Executive Director Carl Skau undertook a high-level mission to Sudan. The mission focused on engagement with government authorities, the reestablishment of WFP’s presence in Khartoum, and a review of operational conditions in Darfur and key border areas.
