Darfur Organization for Development and Human Resources (DOFDAHR), in partnership with the International Organization for Migration (IOM Sudan) and with support from the Central Emergency Response Fund (CERF), distributed health and hygiene kits for women and girls to 189 displaced families in Nyala South locality, South Darfur State. This intervention comes as part of the emergency response project aimed at curbing the spread of cholera and strengthening public health services for displaced and host communities. The kits included essential personal care and women’s health items designed to support women and girls and reduce the risk of cholera transmission, particularly amid the severe shortages in water and sanitation services in affected areas. This initiative forms part of DOFDAHR’s ongoing efforts to support vulnerable families, enhance community resilience, protect women and girls, raise health awareness, and contribute to preventing the escalation of epidemics while improving overall public health in the affected communities.

As part of the emergency assistance project for displaced families and host communities to curb the spread of cholera in Tawila locality, North Darfur — in partnership with IOM Sudan and with support from the Central Emergency Response Fund (CERF) — the organization began distributing hygiene and dignity kits on 28 November 2025 to the most affected families in Daba Naira and Shakshako sites. A total of 63 displaced families received essential kits, providing women and girls with basic items for personal hygiene and menstrual health. This support aims to reduce health risks linked to cholera amid severe shortages in water and sanitation services within displacement sites. These interventions reflect the organization’s ongoing commitment to supporting affected families, strengthening their resilience amid the deteriorating humanitarian and health conditions in conflict-affected areas, and contributing to the prevention of further outbreaks. The efforts also prioritize the protection of women and girls and promote health awareness within the affected communities to tackle current epidemic risks.
