The peace agreement between Salamat and Misseriya tribes signed in June 2014 and the closing of the Abu Gadam camp by the Chadian government has caused in the town of Um Dukhun an unprecedented influx of people exiled in Chad or internally displaced in South Darfur, returning to settle close to their original places of residence. The first arrivals occurred in early 2015, but the flow of people grew rapidly, doubling the population of the town. TGH started to provide emergency assistance at the time of the first arrivals in Moradaf in 2015, but the situation became critical, requiring new funding to ensure an effective and comprehensive emergency response in the water, hygiene and sanitation sector.

In partnership with the Sudanese authorities, especially those involved in this area of ​​intervention, TGH developed an integrated response that includes the establishment of new emergency water supply systems, the installation of emergency latrines, the distribution of soap, mosquito nets and hygiene kits and awareness-raising sessions for the population on basic hygiene practices. TGH plans to complete its response through strengthening the activities already implemented in 2013-2014 in support of the displaced people settled in Kabar, Begayra-Shayla, Magan, and Salaly and Umfrout, renovating the emergency water supply systems and ensuring that people have access to water throughout the targeted communities.
