EMERGENCY IN SUDAN: ACT NOW

Civilians in Sudan are suffering from a catastrophic humanitarian crisis, as Sudan's two most powerful military forces continue to fight for power:

Over 24,000 people have been killed, many in deliberate and indiscriminate attacks. More than 11 million people have been displaced, and 14 million children — half the country’s children — are in desperate need of humanitarian assistance.

There’s no time to waste: we have to do all we can to prevent further atrocities and loss of life. Please add your name to our letter to President-elect Trump, and we’ll hand deliver your signature to the White House.

President-elect Trump,

I urge you to speak out on the crisis in Sudan. Since April 2023, the ongoing fighting between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) has devastated the country, with countless atrocities and millions forcibly displaced and in dire need of humanitarian assistance. Many in Sudan are at the brink of famine, if not experiencing these horrors already.

In December 2023, the United States made an official atrocity determination on Sudan, citing that members of the SAF have committed war crimes and that members of the RSF and allied militias have committed war crimes, crimes against humanity, and ethnic cleansing. The ethnic based targeted killing in Darfur, in particular, echoes the atrocities in Darfur that caught the world’s attention some 20 years ago. The threat of violence against civilians remains and the risk of widespread hunger grows.

It is clear that urgent action is needed to prevent further atrocities and loss of life. As you prepare to begin your term I urge you to:

- Nominate a Presidential Envoy for Sudan and support them in strengthening diplomatic efforts to protect civilians and secure humanitarian access, including through bilateral and multilateral engagement with the leaders of governments with influence over the parties involved in the conflict.

- Call out governments implicated in arming those responsible for committing atrocities against civilians, and in violation of the UN Security Council Sudan Arms Embargo.

-Enforce the existing UN Security Council Sudan Arms Embargo

- Work with other donor countries to scale up humanitarian assistance, including through local Emergency Response Rooms and other mutual aid groups led by Sudanese civilians

- Support evidence collection, documentation efforts, and accountability measures in Sudan including through the UN Fact-Finding Mission for Sudan, the International Criminal Court, and any future credible accountability process within Sudan

- Engage and support the governments of neighboring countries to ensure aid and refuge is offered to those fleeing hunger and violence in Sudan.

Most urgently, I urge you to speak out on the crisis in Sudan. Address the nation and the world to bear witness to the tragedy unfolding in Sudan, to mobilize international support for Sudanese civilians, and to prevent the further loss of civilian life.

Sincerely,
