The Emergency Support for Women and Affected Communities project (ESWAC) aims at addressing emergency needs and strengthening resilience of conflict-affected communities in Sudan. ICRC interventions under ESWAC include activities to enhance agricultural productivity, livelihoods and water infrastructure rehabilitation as well as access to health services.
