Sudan’s Emergency Response Rooms (ERRs) 

The EERs are a grassroots network of volunteers providing life-saving aid in the world’s worst humanitarian catastrophe – stepping in amidst a brutal war, an absent state and a wholly inadequate international response. Arising out of the neighbourhood resistance committees during Sudan’s non-violent revolution in 2018-19, the ERRs have become a powerful force for community-led mutual aid, delivering everything from food and medicine to safe evacuations and creating safe spaces for women. Facing immense risks but driven by a commitment to solidarity with their compatriots, and supported especially through donations from the Sudanese diaspora, the ERRs have assisted millions and gained international recognition, including Nobel Peace Prize nominations.

All welcome. Registration is compulsory.
