"Voices from Under Siege" is an advocacy campaign to expose and challenge siege warfare in Sudan. El Fasher, Kadugli, and Deleng are cut off from food, medicine, and trade, leaving civilians in famine conditions. The project amplifies survivor voices, mobilizes funds for ERR kitchens, and pressures international actors to open humanitarian corridors, enforce accountability, and protect besieged communities.
Warring parties in Sudan are using siege warfare in El Fasher, Kadugli, and Deleng, cutting civilians off from food, medicine, and trade. Families face famine, disease, and collapse of hospitals. Starvation is used as a weapon, not a byproduct. International silence enables this crime, repeating Sudan's history of engineered famine and leaving communities defenseless.
This project tackles the problem by amplifying survivor voices, reframing sieges as war crimes, and mobilizing global attention. It raises funds to sustain ERR kitchens feeding besieged civilians and builds coordinated advocacy with diaspora and international NGOs. It applies pressure on governments, UN bodies, and warring parties to open humanitarian corridors, enforce accountability, and secure lifesaving access.
The long-term impact includes breaking the cycle of starvation warfare in Sudan by raising its political and legal cost. Communities in El Fasher, Kadugli, and Deleng gain sustained humanitarian access and stronger local response capacity. Diaspora and global allies stay mobilized, creating lasting solidarity networks. The campaign sets precedent that engineered famine is unacceptable and punishable, deterring future use.
