7:34 am
that that chat box. we have a live stream producer there waiting to get your questions and comments to me so i can get him to our guest. so help me out here be a part of the show, right. joining us to talk about the challenges facing sedans, children, we have arshad malik, his country director, save the children, sir dan, he's in your homes where to day, but normally based an sudan laid a corolla as a human rights activists at the sima center, a cartoon based group dedicated to helping women and children, and we have al jazeera correspond him, morgan, and she is also in cartoon. so i have a actually let me begin with you, the viewer, if you're watching this uninjured as stop. right now, i need you to see these numbers. check this out. top line 3000000 children and sudan are facing malnutrition,
7:35 am
600 that hear those acute malnutrition. and here's what i need you to hear. half of those could die without treatment. however, i, i can't get my head around 300000 plus children facing death mound nutrition. i can only really understand it through one child, one mom, one family, and that's what you're reporting on al jazeera english, i think does for us. so i want to share a clip of that now with our audience, when i'm number loads one year old daughter, how was started to lose weight 4 months ago. she thought it was just a phase, but how was health continued to deteriorate? and now i'm now has brought her to a malnutrition center for treatment. then i is horizontal italy because of the cost of food in the market. most of the time we can only afford to give her milk. things are very expensive. and even when i nurse her, there's not enough to keep her full visibility. so select a mom there,
7:36 am
said that most of time they can't afford milk in the market, but because the price has gone up, they now can't. well, how much of the price has gone up and why, what, what's happening there? well 1st of all, you have to understand that south that sedans economy has been in a downward spiral. and it's one of the things that triggered the antique government protest against the sheer and that late 2018. now, people have been pretty much earning up more or less the same salaries, especially civil service. you know, people make about 304-0000 destiny's pounds now and that's less than a $100.00 a month. and these are people who will stable jobs. many of the people they work on a day to day basis in their daily income earners and a for them to be able to keep up with the market. prices is just quite hard. now just look at it this way. a bottle of milk, let's say for 5 years back would cost about a $20.00 maybe sydney's pounds. but now when you go to the market because it's like
7:37 am
a 1000 sit in his answer that's, that's quite expensive for many families to look for it. especially pivot that way i want to make sure understood you what were the numbers or did you say from say the numbers again control it could have gone up as much as i think i just heard. well, yes it did. if you're looking at it over the past 5 years, yes, it has gone up greatly and again, many people are civil servants. they though pretty much on the same salaries, they've been earning. and even if it has increased, so has the inflation. so has the devaluation of the signals pounds, when you look at their salaries, many people and less than a $100.00 a month. and that money that they and they have to use it to put their children in school to feed them close them. if you take them to the hospital, they, the public transports, that they need to move around. so all of that on just like a monthly income of, for many people that's, it's very hard to live by. and when you have kids to feed, you have to choose about, well, what, what you, what you can get you on something that's nutritious, would learn something that's affordable to keep their bellies full at
7:38 am
a terrible choice to make our, our shot. what's it like right now trying to run a human turn agency there and sit on i think up like it's 1st of all we need to appreciate what, what he was saying about the current situation and saddam. so there are multiple factors which have impacted the what else would security situation which is worsening. we have the conflict in multiple parts of the country. we have different players have said the prices or inflation going to skyrocketing the seasonal impact of the strip on, on the for chicken distribution in the country is also was from the situation. considered 95 percent of the household spend more than 60 pounds per 5 percent of the total expenditures on food. even a slight increase in the food prices will have significant impact. and that's according to the one ford program. now, us as it seems,
7:39 am
we are dealing with massively increasing needs in the country across everywhere. and with the very limited resources, we normally talk about the income to situation. we always talk about what the response of live to government is. i think while not discussing the rationals behind the suspension of international aid, i think the impact of suspension of international aid is very, very severe. on the, on the people who stood on the people who tend to not done. and that's something we need to appreciate and kind of find a solution, how to, how do we get the international community to agree to continue supporting the people that are going forward. our side to be clear, the suspension of international aid, is that because the military coup, as i said, like, definitely the political decisions made by, by, by the international community. but the impact of those political decisions is now showing on the people of sudan that are like around 20000000 people up to like
7:40 am
exactly 11700000 people are voting to the un assessment, which are not having access to before they need that quarter of the population. so while i'm not a political company commented overture, we can talk about what the rationale as well for suspension of it. the situation demands that the, the international committee needs to consider that people and children know saddam need start and rationally as soon as possible. i look, i want to know for our viewers that all 3 of our gas to actually based on saddam. but we also have a handful of video comments from people's in sudan as well. so i want to share this one. this is much to me of dollar. he's a huge advocate with unicef, sue down down almost 7000000 children out of the school district as diversity council on displacement of 3000000 children under 5 are
7:41 am
acutely my nurse because of instability. many people are resorting to illegal immigration, and many boys end up implicated and under groups, you must not delay asking us to not lose upcoming generation. no, hey, can you tell us what you're hearing from families from mothers who are on the ground they're trying to survive to see you because of the we have to thought politics when we are talking about hunger about lives, about education, it's a cut over to humanitarian it is actually the old come overs and military. oh ah, what we are hearing is actually reflecting zack z report. that is coming and alarming us about a very bad situation. and outcome is that the
7:42 am
apple ford does the hunger and even the dish because of the for me now is getting more and more worse. and we have to add that we are pretty good situation and not only is with them, but is that ego knows it is floods or for free keys, unambiguous coming to. so then all that even is actually ready for a value, but that so then i ask that as a whole is different from saddam before why we were we were going actively towards ma'am, ma'am. economy her, florida. she now we are her much more back and seems is getting worse and worse. this is what we can summarize from the families and from individuals from that kill getting and what is reflecting directly on his account. so i want to bring in some voices from our you to body, and caesar voices from you. people who are watching live right now are isabel lobby,
7:43 am
says heartbreaking missy billy says the things we take for granted ah, further down. so i think k begins 978 says give them food, you know, arshad. it's not just that simple. is it? give them food. where does a verb come from? why it's so very good question which you said like so nice. economy is highly dependent on every culture. as nearly 65 percent of the population is engaged in it . and prices for granted in port have risen dramatically due to the inflation, the non crisis. international factors such as the board and you clean. so this has very severely impacted on the overall, as i said before, 40 can distribution by the prices of fuel, fertilizers, agriculture tools, and electricity prices are going up. and this has a knock on effect on the inflation and definitely with significant increases as he
7:44 am
bought. mentioned earlier on the most of the basic commodities such as transport, dish and any of the service you talk about. and this results into the single cost of the inputs for our local production. so there are multiple factors which we thought them to boot and you mentioned the number of lead on human children not wish like you just enough fishing. acute malnourishment out of 6800000 children in the same age group. but about where we are now feeling about 4000000 cases of under 5 children and pregnant living mother, they are also estimated to be acute, malnourished, and in need of like, our journey to minute in life saving immunization services. so as i said before, while completely not commenting on the political or what the rationale behind the suspension, i think i'll reiterate the same point again. i mean, it is not like there is a minute in it. i think that there is need for much more as you asked me before.
7:45 am
what is it like working as a human or didn't implement this country? and that's exactly what it means. we have very, very limited resources. we have gigantic news in the country and increasing as well . we've lost have a for a minute, but we haven't lost her good reporting. i want to bring in another thing because you mentioned the coup. it's been brought up a couple of times. right? but the, what's happening ukraine has been mentioned, i think is climate change. also a play here. there's been massive flooding a sedan lately. here. let's look at her book report on the flooding and the southern state of dar for checked us out. this is the road to m zayed village, south of south dar forest capital niana. it's one of the latest villages to be affected by heavy rains and flash floods into dam. many are now living out in the open lay. what little ugh i had of them would like us said we have seriously been affected. my house was damaged, all the furniture was damaged and carried away by the water. this room is now
7:46 am
completely destroyed. well that all my beds are broken, all my jerry chance have been carried away by the stream. i didn't manage to recover anything and now we settled washington now. so now he that the mother was saying that the flight had really broke on her birth. taken away everything in her home. what kind of access does she have to help? you could see a young child binder. she clearly has others to provide for work. where can she turn to oneself or for? m a. so therefore i thought this is also linked to jam climbing again. but another link to that bad planning. and that to the quarter auction, or even the aides that are brought to just a needy, once big themes office, our floods actually is a resort both of what option i would like also to says that these have been in mega zero's there in medium school down and in many areas as a security or senator intervene and he stopped many, o ha,
7:47 am
initiate the of school support r i e need the pearsons are victims or far as of floods in many areas in sudan. and they think that it is important that they're adding to these sir natural crises. and there are still being answer problems with the cut scenes. a humanitarian it also, we had there here a problem or was a failure of their aggregate shutter or the la garza season deal to czar looked problems. it nomic problems, problems or la ah, planning up or up sion and that's our lack of institutions. after that, after, as a full with dance is out, it is not government, even. it is something that cannot be called or said it is. so there are always actually ruining what i am building. is there fact there is for more or more crises,
7:48 am
mainly hunger and for me and are shot i was reading something from yourself that were saying, i want to quote this. it says a routine immunization is declining amsterdam between 20192021. the number of children who have not received a single dose of life saving vaccines as double. so basically saying like, the half the half the kids are now getting back scenes that used to just 2 years ago or so. what's happening with that? so i'll court the what we call the e p i or the expanded program for on immunization. as a friend of november, it indicated that 84 percent children under the age of one year received their 3rd those of combined vaccine with a dropout of around 3 percent compared to the 1st. those are prevent so that's, that's the units of report i'm quoting, and 78 percent of the children received mutual recognition in 2021 which was
7:49 am
a rise from the 2 years earlier. but because of the budget gas and again, immunization service delivery, which was identified in 2021 as of a there were multiple factors which affected what unicef escorting, which is guaranteed evolution. and also the more action coverage because of that in the 1st off of the 2021 was like which was from $68.00 was from a drop off like from 80 percent, 84 percent to and i think that they were challenges which will corporate also kind of like affected the overall vaccination. so do they musician situation so yeah, it's definitely worrying situation, but yeah that's that's, that's what i see on this one. lack of access. i think that's another issue. and i, when i say lack of access, it's not that we have been denied. x is what is the insecurity or,
7:50 am
or the situation where we don't have the sources to meet some of the demands that's i want to bring in another voice here. then as a i sat there for the 1st time in, so then he city as a government, ah, ah, and now is 14 charges for getting their routine vaccination. this is happening for the ferris a time is for dan, his 30 and now host with her family needs to have to pay a for the billing to be vaccine ah vaccinated. and of course, this is her within the picture is that there is there as old as a factor. so we'll go to the awareness problem and the access to what's seen and helps problems. so now we, it will be more and more course i'm going to bring in another voice. this is from our community. his name is marissa abdullah, a da hardy, and he's
7:51 am
a children rights activist. and my albany is there is so many reasons a so many cities, children miss glass or are or even drove out of the school because that inflation or hunger crisis fixing and they can re awe while a government keeps talking about 3, you engage in 14, it is a few lucky children with good access to our school. they don't have necessary resources. so i'd like to make a turn here towards the end of the show, although i'm see are shot. you want to jump into the conversation. what go for that? i think it was something which i wanted to mention. i some of a figure which again a, as i was captain mentioning about the international lack of international support at the moment in 2019 the government contributed 35 percent of the vaccination goss of
7:52 am
the warden vaccine it as it in 2021 was little that shows are that the limited resources government has and that's weird. i keep on saying international community needs to step up and continue supporting the i'll, i'll, i'll probably start to get as i'm sorry, and i know i'm repeating it, but that's, that's extremely important. that the message goes out international 20. so the news people and children new dot supported at this point of time. and, and if we're talking about the children of sudan and their future, i'd like to talk about their educational opportunities. i have has also done some reporting on that, so i like to share this package with you guys. now. xena a, but that is helping her son armada get ready to start the school year. he was due to start his 6th grade more than a week ago. he l. affinity at another monopoly administered of the school year has been postponed 3 times this year. the 1st we were told it would start in september, and then we were told the 2nd of october,
7:53 am
and then they told us this week that it would be the 9th of october for education has not been stable. and that has led to our kids not being stable either is one children's education keeps being interrupted. first cove, it then mass protests and now flooding, which destroyed more than 60 schools. here both schools that were untouched by the flooding are now used as shelter as by families who lost their homes. so i just wanna bring in a couple of voices from you to this is grayson dairy, who says the troy sad children are vulnerable and most marginalized in society? and now they're facing malnutrition. ah, and we have him on the phone. hipaa. can you hear me? oh no, he was here, it was back. hey, how are you? welcome to the last few minutes of the show. thanks. we've been sharing your reporting. we actually just shared the package about the mom trying to get her child back in school. can you talk to me about the struggle that families have there were getting the children in the school?
7:54 am
well, it's mostly again the economy now. that's just one of the families we spoke to in gosselin, instance adapt. there were other families who we spoke to and they said that the issues with regards to getting their children in school are the fees and we're talking about something bad or some people may be symbolic, you know, it could be less than $10.00 to afford to close afford book, but for many people again, if you're earning less than $100.00 a month, that is just too much so many families can't afford to pay for school books. they can't afford to pay for clothes. then there's the issue of school lunches. they have to get sandwiches for the children to be able to feed themselves when, when they're at school, and for a lot of families, that's a little bit too much so many families, even if they do manage to get better in the 1st year of education and schooling system, they just can't continue to keep them in that system because just getting to expect . and so what they prefer to do, especially for the boy,
7:55 am
is to pull them out of school. have them work in the market to help the family with their income because for them, the priority is keeping the family bed as opposed to, you know, spending money to keep their children. yeah. so we only have a few minutes left in the show and i want to get to what the international community needs to do. i'm going to bring in another voice from our community. this is jaida doyenne mckenna. she's a ceo of mercy cor. we urgently need global donors to step up with nutrition, health, and humanitarian assistance for sudan, and fact, the current appeal for sudan is only 40 percent, find it. in addition, we will need to help communities cope with recurring climate shocks by doing things such as helping them per to, to protect glades at grazing land and water resources. this will be critical going forward. so arshad, she said in that that that the,
7:56 am
the need is only 40 percent funded the internationally for sudan, 40 percent funded. what does that me and do? does that number ring church in your for your organization? say the children and what is 40 percent made like what, what can you not do because you're only 40 percent so yeah, it excites 40 percent of the overall image and response plan which was developed for 2022 is a funded which means that another 6 that has a 60 percent gap in terms of the actual funding requested for implementing some emergency accumulated and implementation. so i think what that means is that there are gaps still left and most importantly, i think the 2 sectors which always direct ignored is education and protection. and i'll, i'll specifically mention education as one of the lease broader days sector, which is not getting the attention of the international community. he bought mentioned a baltic nomic patios, internally,
7:57 am
the 50 by push of the schools charging fi details incentive. there are like, did it induce household purchasing power due to the inflation cultural barriers including child labor in been and kept going to support it better said the harvesting season. but also, as we spoke about the poor nutrition and health situation that also is impacting the will education situation. so i think we need to deal with education about jesse because this will, if we are not divesting the situation immediately in our shop, it's so hard to deal with the future when you have to tree on them that the crisis that's right in front of you and that christ, that is happening, said dan, as we speak, that all the time we have for it to day show. i want to think all of our guest for joining us. i want to thank you for watching the stream and of course our desert english will continue to follow sir dan, in the months and years ahead. ah,
7:58 am
a society's progress is dependent on the quality of its experts be need more and find out professionals. a top priority is to moderate the new generation to study, find new teaching methods or infuse tie students to become the agents of change. taking them out of the classroom to solve problems in their local communities. ready level education, inspiring science thailand on all disease. when the news breaks, it's not just personal property, but also an infrastructure that now leaves fixing from power lines to water me when people need to be heard. and the story told they would get punished if they spoke
7:59 am
ukrainian. i'm afraid i won't be able to return home with exclusive interviews. an indepth through south african penguins won't easy. at 50 al jazeera has teams on the ground to bring you more award winning documentary. and lives frank assessments, if the united states should, he felt that you're running a good program was there to build a nuclear weapon. they would have signed a deal by informed opinions. i believe that armenia and other virginia should have bilateral negotiations. we've been holding that for many times. critical debate is the commonwealth now still something that king charles will take home in depth analysis of the data global headlines inside story on al jazeera. i've lived in cats off a 16 years in 2010. i was live on air in the old san doha when the well comp announcement was made. it's just really great to have the 1st mid least well cut. it unites people from different backgrounds and races,
8:00 am
and that's why it's so important and i'm excited that it's finally on my doorstep in castle. this is going to be an amazing venue for the well. ca can't wait to bring my kids. it covers just around the corner, and i think we're going to get some really great game with russian president vladimir putin imposes masa law in for annex regions in ukraine as key for pass for a major offensive on cas ah, hello, i money inside this is al jazeera life and also coming up i.
