Join a global challenge to walk in solidarity with the people of Sudan.Supported by: Programme for African Leadership and the Firoz Lalji institute for AfricaIntroductionSudan is slipping out of the world’s conscience. A nation bleeds in silence — forgotten by many, remembered by few. And we scroll, sigh, and move on. Not because we don’t care, but because we’ve learned to live with what should be unbearable.When I first planned to walk the Camino for Sudan, it was meant to be a personal pilgrimage to raise funds for those affected by the war. But as I reflected, it became clear that this shouldn’t be one person’s walk. It should be our walk — a shared testament to the spirit of Ubuntu: “I am because you are.”That is why the PfAL community of students, alumni, mentors, and friends is coming together for the Walk With Sudan Challenge — an act of solidarity, reflection, advocacy, and collective action.Because when suffering becomes “someone else’s problem,” walking together reconnects us to Ubuntu — and to our shared humanity.Why We Walk — And Why It MattersI’ve been haunted by a thought I can’t escape: we are learning to live with the unbearable.Wars. Displacement. Starvation. Every day, more lives lost — and yet less outrage. We scroll past the pain because it happens “somewhere else.”But for many of us, this isn’t “somewhere else.”It’s Africa. It’s Sudan. And our shared humanity runs deeper than borders.Over 13 million children in Sudan are currently out of school due to conflict.Why Education Matters NowBeyond the immediate humanitarian crisis, Sudan’s children are facing an education emergency. Schools have been destroyed or closed, families displaced, and millions of young people are losing access to safe learning environments — with lifelong consequences.Funds raised through this campaign will go directly to organisations supporting displaced families with essential services that help keep children safe, healthy, and able to return to learning.A Personal InvitationI began my Camino walk for Sudan on Thursday, 27 November.Today, as I complete this journey, I’m inviting you — wherever you are — to join me symbolically. Walk a little. Reflect. Share. Stand in solidarity.Let’s ensure Sudan is not forgotten.How It WorksEach participant commits to:Walking a set distance in your city, campus, or community.Raising at least £200 to support humanitarian relief.Sharing your walk — post photos, reflections, or even sync your walk via Strava so we can map our steps across the world.Raising awareness in your networks to remind the world that Sudan matters.This isn’t just about fundraising. It’s about standing together. When we walk, we walk for every life affected.Our steps may feel small — a drop in the ocean — but sometimes small acts are the only protest left against a world that has gone numb.How You Can Help — A Call to Walk, Reflect, and Raise Your Voice💠 Donate what you can. Every contribution counts.💠 Share this campaign and your walk. Photos, reflections, Strava routes — awareness saves lives.💠 Join the Walk With Sudan Challenge. Step by step, let’s make Sudan visible again.Sudan has been called the world’s forgotten crisis.Let’s prove the world wrong.Walk with us.Give what you can.Share widely.Thank you for walking.Tosin AdebisiCo-founder, Edukate AfricaHead, Programme for African Leadership (PfAL), LSECampaign TeamMunira Aminu BelloNadia BawumiaAisha AgboluajeDorothy N’tchougan-SonouNadia Bawumia (Ghana)Munira Aminu Bello (Nigeria)Dorothy N’tchougan-Sonou (Togo)Aisha Agboluaje (Nigeria)Yousra Abdelmoneim (Sudan)Ama Haroon-Nuna (Sudan)#PfalwalksforSudan #WalkWithSudan
My name is Hannatu Sati Ribah, a Registered Nurse currently pursuing a Master’s Degree in Public Health (MPH) in Health Promotion Prevention and Control at the Ahmadu Bello University Zaria, Nigeria. My journey into public health began from my years of dedicated service as a Nursing Officer at the Federal Teaching Hospital, Birnin Kebbi, where I worked closely with patients from diverse backgrounds. Over time, I witnessed how preventable diseases and poor access to health information continue to affect individuals and families, especially in rural and underserved communities. These experiences deeply shaped my resolve to transition from curative care to preventive health practice where I can make a broader and more sustainable impact. Enrolling in the MPH program at the Ahmadu Bello University Distance learning program, one of Nigeria’s leading institutions for public health training, has been a defining step in my professional development. The program has exposed me to advanced concepts in epidemiology, health promotion, and disease prevention, as well as practical research and intervention design. Through my coursework and field experience, I have developed a deeper understanding of how community-based health programs can effectively reduce disease burden and improve quality of life. However, the financial aspect of this academic pursuit has been a major challenge. The school fees for both the first and second semesters were paid through borrowed funds, which I am still struggling to repay while managing my living and study expenses. Despite working diligently, my limited income cannot adequately cover repayment and the upcoming academic requirements, including tuition for the next sessions, research materials, and dissertation costs. I am therefore appealing for financial assistance or sponsorship to support the successful completion of my MPH degree. Your support will not only ease my financial burden but will also help me continue developing the skills and expertise needed to serve communities more effectively. Upon completion of this program, my goal is to contribute to public health policy, community health education, and preventive programs, particularly in rural areas where health awareness and access remain limited. I believe that strengthening prevention and health promotion efforts is the key to achieving lasting improvements in national health outcomes. Thank you for considering my request and for your potential support in helping me fulfill this mission of advancing public health and improving community well-being. The fee will go a long way in supporting me .
Hi, my name is Iroegbu Steven Divine and I’m reaching out with a humble heart to ask for your support.

Education don always be my priority because I believe say na the key to change my life and give back to my community. But right now, without financial support, I might not be able to continue my studies. Your donation, no matter how small, will go directly to cover my tuition and help me stay in school. I no dey take this lightly at all – I truly appreciate every single support, prayer, and share. If you believe in education, in second chances, and in helping someone stay on the path of their dreams, please consider donating or sharing this with others. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. - Iroegbu Steven Divine
