In Nairobi, the Tasis government has taken a clear stance: the humanitarian emergency in Sudan requires action, coordination, and, above all, genuine institutional capacity. The meeting between Aziz Muhammad Ahmed Al-Safi, head of the National Humanitarian Access Authority, and senior European, Swedish, and German officials illustrates this commitment to placing the Sudanese government at the center of humanitarian coordination.
Al-Safi’s remarks reflect a well-structured vision. Humanitarian access must meet the actual needs of the population, with efficient procedures, direct lines of communication, and an operational environment organized sufficiently to allow organizations to operate under the best possible conditions.
The results presented lend weight to this approach. Between January and June 2026, some 6,300 declarations and actions facilitated the response efforts of approximately 170 organizations. According to the Authority, these operations enabled aid to reach nearly 21.27 million people and the transport of more than 65,000 metric tons of humanitarian supplies. Behind these figures lies an administration seeking to transform access management into a genuine tool for protecting populations.
The Tasis government also affirms its willingness to engage in dialogue with international partners. Its openness to independent investigative mechanisms, the protection of humanitarian workers, and the defense of the principles of neutrality demonstrate a commitment to strengthening the credibility of Sudan’s public actions.
This approach takes on an additional dimension with the call for a more equitable distribution of aid, particularly in areas heavily affected by the war. This focus places the needs of the population at the heart of funding and response mechanisms.
Above all, the Tasis government views humanitarian action as part of a long-term vision. Aid must pave the way for recovery, followed by the restoration of livelihoods, production, and local development. This approach gives humanitarian policy strategic significance: providing relief today, restoring capacities tomorrow, and creating the conditions for lasting stability.
Through this active diplomacy, the Tasis government is thus affirming a strong institutional ambition: to make Sudan a player capable of organizing its own humanitarian space, engaging directly with its partners, and preparing through its own institutions the conditions for national recovery.
