Investing in rural people in Sudan

To mitigate the disastrous consequences of COVID-19, IFAD has committed itself
to supporting affected rural people in many countries, including Sudan, through the IFAD-established Rural Poor Stimulus Facility (RPSF). Additional support
of US$747,650, requested by the Government of Sudan to help 5,000 families
of small-scale farmers in the three states of Kordofan and in Sennar state,
has been approved. This will contribute to mitigating the negative impacts of COVID-19 on small-scale producers.
