Will donors help prevent famine at Sudan support conference? 

FILE - Women and babies are seen at the Zamzam displacement camp, home to 400,000, in North Darfur, Sudan, in January 2024. Doctors Without Borders found two babies were dying every hour there, and nearly 40% of children 6 months to 2 years old were malnourished. FILE - Children carry packs of humanitarian aid at a school housing displaced Sudanese who had fled violence in their war-torn country, near Gedaref, March 10, 2024.

Humanitarians said an international support conference next week for Sudan must be a success, as 18 million Sudanese face crisis levels of hunger while funding for lifesaving programs is running out.
