Introduction
The conflict between two Darfur opposition movements and the Government of Sudan (GoS) and its allied militias, has resulted in one of the world’s worst humanitarian crises seen in decades. More than 2.5 million people have been internally displaced and more than 200,000 refugees have crossed into Chad as a result of fighting.
The HD Centre has been involved in Darfur since April 2003 in an effort to help address the dire humanitarian situation in the region and continues to monitor the situation there.
