Berlin Emergency Conference Pledges $1 Billion for Sudan Relief
International diplomats met in Berlin on May 1, 2026, for an emergency conference to address the escalating humanitarian crisis in Sudan. The conference aimed to raise $1 billion in aid as the civil war enters its fourth year, leaving 33.7 million people in need of assistance. Neither the SAF nor the RSF were invited to the talks. The funding is intended to bridge a gap caused by global focus shifting toward the Middle East and the Iran-US conflict.
