Tearfund has been operational in Darfur since 2004, working in areas affected by conflict and chronic vulnerability. Tearfund has focused on work in Nutrition, Public Health Education, including Child-Focused Health Education, Water and Sanitation, Food Security/Livelihoods, Education and Community Development. We currently have field sites in Ed Daein, Kass and Um Dukhun/Nerititi.
Tearfund has adjusted its geographical focus in line with changing needs. Starting from the emergency phase where life-saving services such as water, sanitation and nutrition were needed, Tearfund has generally stayed in an area until the needs stabilized to a point where the area was ready for long-term development.
