Background

As the largest country in Africa, Sudan has enormous potential, with significant human capital and a vast natural resource base – but for nearly two centuries, deep-seated conflict has revolved around access to those resources;

Estimated poverty rates remain very high – up to 90 percent in Southern Sudan and Barely 1 in 5 children complete primary school; clean water is available to only 1 in 4 in some regions;

Civil war left 2 million dead, displaced 4 million, reinforced ancient tribal and ethnic rivalries and severely limited infrastructure development;

Unemployment is very high it is believed that 80 percent of those who are economically active are involved in the informal economy, and about half of these are poor;

The high proportion of youth represents an opportunity to harness vast human capital for development;
