TGH in Sudan

With a current operational volume of approximately €12 million, TGH’s mission in Sudan is supported by key donors including ECHO, BHA, OCHA-SHF, and IFSAN (French Ministry of Foreign Affairs).
TGH currently employs over 120 national staff across field locations including Geneina and Foro Baranga (West Darfur); Golo, and Zalingei (Central Darfur); Tawila (North Darfur); Wad Madani (Jazirah) , Khartoum and Port Sudan (Red Sea).
