Rising violence in Sudan fuels growing displacement emergency

Sudan is at the centre of a worsening displacement crisis, as conflict and violence continue to force people from their homes.

A Danish Refugee Council forecast warns that 4.2 million more people could be displaced globally by the end of 2027.

The figure adds to 117.3 million already displaced worldwide, highlighting the scale of the growing humanitarian emergency.

The report shows displacement is now spreading across more regions, creating a complex and fragmented global crisis.

Declining international support is worsening the situation, with reduced peace funding linked to rising instability and displacement.

Violence against civilians rose by 14 percent in 2025, deepening fear and driving more families to flee.

The agency warned that shrinking aid is weakening protection systems, leaving displaced people with little support or hope.
