The conflict that erupted in Sudan in April 2023 has driven millions of people from their homes. All parties to the conflict have been accused of abuses of human rights, including grave violations of children’s rights. The conflict has spawned a humanitarian crisis – famine, disease and displacement – that has grabbed headlines. But less often reported is the severe protection crisis, especially the widespread perpetration of sexual violence against children. ‘Sudan’s child rape and sexual violence crisis’ highlights the voices of courageous and resilient women and girls interviewed by UNICEF in an effort to increase the attention, protection and aid children in Sudan receive. No person, no child, should have to endure these horrors. March 2025Press Release, filtered_html
