Crisis in Sudan: What a Kiwi aid worker saw on the ground

As the world’s eyes have been fixed on Ukraine, another conflict on a different continent has seen more than a million people displaced from their homes. 

Fighting in Sudan has ripped families apart amid a mass migration among those looking to escape the bloodshed.
 
New Zealander Phil Johnstone recently visited South Sudan as part of his work with World Vision. What he saw there has left an indelible mark.

As World Refugee Day’s efforts to remind us of the stories of those who have been displaced begin, Phil shares his experience of Sudan’s crisis with Damien and explains what Kiwis can do to help those in need.
