During the latter part of the twentieth century, Sudan suffered from two long civil wars resulting in hundreds of thousands of people displaced or in danger of extreme violence. Since 2003, the separate Darfur conflict has displaced nearly 2.5 million people and caused an estimated 200,000 to 400,000 deaths.
After 22 years of war, southern Sudan ranks as one of the worst areas in the world for women and children’s well-being, as well as being the worst for nutrition, primary school completion, immunization, and antenatal care. A UNICEF report described the state of women and children as “shocking.” Girls in southern Sudan are more likely to die in pregnancy or childbirth than complete primary education. Female Genital Mutilation afflicts 90 percent of Sudanese women and girls. Only one in 50 children completes primary education, which is thought to be the lowest rate in the world, and only one in four adults (one in 10 women) are literate. Population Institute has ranked Sudan the 10th most vulnerable state in their 2015 Demographic Vulnerability Report
