TGH in Sudan
TGH has a long-standing presence in Sudan: first implementing a multi-sectoral program targeting displaced people and host communities in Geneina (West Darfur) in 2004, it extended its presence to Central Darfur (Bindizi and Um Dukhun) in 2005 and 2006 respectively. Since then, TGH has maintained a continuous presence in both states, despite an increasingly complex context, and has also intervened in Khartoum, Gedaref, Al-Jazeera, Red Sea, and South Kordofan states.

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). Additionally, more than 14 expatriate staff are deployed across Sudan and Chad.
