International Rescue Committee
With more than 2 million people driven from their homes, Darfur has been described as one of the world’s worst humanitarian crises.

Amid desperate conditions, the International Rescue Committee delivers lifesaving aid, protects women and girls, and speaks out for global action on behalf of the Sudanese people.
