Project Report | Nov 9, 2026
Your gift reopened our center in Khartoum

By Omnia Sharef | SAMA Digital Marketing Officer

Thanks to you, the Dr. Bushra Ibnauf Center in Khartoum opened its doors on 24 October 2026. SAMA's office in Khartoum was destroyed in the war. Today, the same city has a solar-powered space with high-speed internet, where medical students and health workers can study, join live training with experts, and plan their careers again.

The center is a place where people come to learn and meet. As a Project ECHO superhub, SAMA has trained many local ECHO hubs, and the center gives them a space to host their own training sessions. Among them are the medical students' associations of five universities in Khartoum. The center is also home to SAMA's own training programs and our Sudan Future Leaders program.

Khartoum now joins our center in Port Sudan, where training has continued through the war. Together, our centers have trained more than 368 health workers in person and 1,848 online, across 206 sessions led by more than 110 experts.

Our next step is Tawila in North Darfur, which hosts more than 665,000 displaced people. SAMA already runs a mobile clinic there, and a center will give local health workers the power, internet, and training they need to care for them. This project now supports all the Dr. Bushra Ibnauf Centers: your gifts keep Port Sudan and Khartoum running and help us open in Tawila. Thank you for standing with Sudan
