Evidence snapshot for Sudan
Sudan faces acute humanitarian and education challenges documented in the CONTEXT. A digital tablet-based learning programme showed that out-of-school children improved their maths scores by nearly twice and reading scores by almost 2.7 times more than children in the government's Alternative Learning Programme, though the same intervention produced a statistically significant negative effect on children's self-reported self-esteem. By September 2025, Sudan's ongoing civil war had driven 21.2 million people (45% of the population) into Crisis-level food insecurity, with famine confirmed in multiple areas, though this estimate relies on machine-learning nowcasting rather than independent field verification as traditional surveys became impossible.
