In 2024, we have led 59 humanitarian medical response projects to meet the needs of populations affected by conflict, epidemics and extreme poverty. All of these projects support national health authorities through existing health facilities (including hospitals and health centers). We work in partnership, particularly with local NGOs, whenever possible to ensure that our patients benefit from expertise wherever it is available, whether in their country or in the rest of the world. In addition, to improve the humanitarian response, we conduct operational and clinical research projects, particularly in the areas of malnutrition and viral hemorrhagic fevers.\n\nTHE WORK WE DO: Primary and Secondary Health Care, with a main focus on children and women - including treatment and prevention of Acute Malnutrition, Maternal Health, Pediatric Care, Mental Health, response to Epidemics (Ebola, Cholera, Measles, Dengue, Lassa Fever), Surgery, Displaced Populations, and Gender-Based Violence\n\nCOUNTRIES WHERE WE WORK: Mali, Burkina Faso, Central African Republic, Nigeria, Niger, Chad, Democratic Republic of Congo, Cameroon, South Sudan, Mauritania, Senegal, Sudan, Ethiopia.\n\nALIMA IN SUDAN\n\nALIMA has been present in Sudan since 2021 with projects in South Kordofan and Khartoum states responding to urgent health and nutrition needs of populations affected by conflict and the COVID-19 pandemic.\n\nALIMA is currently operating in North and West Darfur. Its intervention aims to reduce mortality and morbidity among internally displaced persons (IDPs) and host communities affected by conflict through integrated health, nutrition and emergency response activities across North and West Darfur.

Since August 2026, activities have expanded to Marta, Kergnoi, Katur and Gerni El Fasher, with plans to deploy two mobile clinics in IDP camps. In West Darfur, ALIMA supports five PHCCs in Kulbus, six PHCs in Jebel Moon and one hospital, providing health and nutrition services in collaboration with health authorities and partners including UNICEF, ECHO and EDESIA.
