01 · The Crisis We Move For
Sudan deserves to be seen.
Sudan is facing the world's largest humanitarian crisis. Tens of millions of people need urgent humanitarian assistance. Millions have been forced from their homes. Hunger, displacement, disease and the collapse of essential services continue to affect families across the country.
The crisis is not invisible because it is small.
It is invisible because the world keeps looking away.
Nile Active exists to help change that through sport, culture, fundraising and public action.
34Mpeople need aid, with 21M lacking health services.
19.5Mpeople face crisis levels of hunger.
825Kchildren under five expected to suffer severe acute malnutrition in 2026.
15Mpeople forced to flee their homes since the conflict began.
33.7Mpeople require humanitarian assistance in Sudan's 2026 response plan.

A start line can become a public act.
For Nile Active, impact is not only measured in pounds raised. It is also measured in how loudly and publicly Sudan is carried into spaces where it is too often absent.
Run for Sudan helped bring Sudan into race-day spaces, student organising, local media, public conversation and online campaign platforms.
