Eastern Sudan comprises three states, namely Red Sea, Kassala and Gedaref. The humanitarian situation in the region has been dire since the war erupted in April 2023, as the large influx of displaced people overwhelmed the capacity of local services. Increased demand for power and internet has also resulted in frequent disruptions and outages. This has caused direct and indirect impacts on the local population, affecting currency, purchasing power and prices of essential goods. The delivery of banking services has also been affected. Moreover, the non-payment of salaries due to the conflict has further exacerbated this problem.
This publication was done through a field survey with The Emergency Rooms and Initiatives operating in the region since the war erupted in April 2023. There were variations in the surveys conducted due to the decision mechanisms of the different operational bodies.
