Small World

Issue 84 – January 2025

Hope in the face of instability

Welcome to your New Year issue of Small World. This issue focuses on resilience in the face of conflict, showcasing how support from people like you is driving change in some of the toughest circumstances.

You’ll read a special feature from our Sudan Country Director, Muna, on how the civil war in Sudan has impacted lives and shaped our work. Learn about the incredible progress made by farming families in North Darfur, supported through donations to our 2019 AidMatch appeal, as they tackle both conflict and the climate crisis.

There are also uplifting stories of fellow supporters raising vital funds in creative ways, from an African cycling challenge to an informal awareness event.

The support of people like you is helping people to rebuild their lives and create lasting solutions in the toughest of circumstances. Thank you for standing alongside them – we hope you enjoy reading their inspiring stories.
