“My family had to leave the country, but I chose to stay here and to continue my humanitarian work with the IRC.” At 29-years old, Azza has lived through two displacements, and kept working through all of it. For three years, she's delivered vital aid to communities caught in Sudan's escalating conflict. The toll has been devastating. Over 70% of all hospitals have been destroyed, leaving millions without healthcare as disease outbreaks surge. In response, Azza and her team work tirelessly to deliver water, sanitation and hygiene services to those who need it most, supported by our partnership with the EU in Emergencies. “I don't know if my life will actually go back to how it was before the war,” says Azza. "Or if my family will be able to come back to Sudan.” Despite intense challenges, Azza is proud to continue serving her community. “The things we do may seem small from the outside, but they are very meaningful to the people who need them. There is a rewarding feeling that comes with that.” Swipe to see her story, brought to life by Aya Mohamed.
