The Forgotten Humanitarian Crises: Sudan and the Sahel | Press Talks
Why do some humanitarian catastrophes dominate global headlines while others remain largely ignored?
The new episode of Press Talks features Waiel Awwad, Gonzaga Muganwa, and Gabriel Baglo, who examine the growing scale of humanitarian crises caused by war, displacement, and political instability with particular attention to Sudan and the wider Sahel region.
From Sudan’s devastating humanitarian emergency, where millions face acute hunger and displacement while international aid remains dramatically underfunded, to the spread of instability across the Sahel, the discussion explores how conflicts increasingly evolve into long-term humanitarian catastrophes.
