To ask Her Majesty’s Government what assessment they have made of the international community's strategy for Sudan, its coherence, and the resources for supporting it.

Whilst there is no formally agreed international strategy on Sudan, we work closely with likeminded partners in the Troika (the US and Norway) and the EU and to pursue a coherent approach. This is reflected in public statements such as those issued by the Troika and the EU during Sudan’s recent elections. The international community, including the UK, continues to invest significant resources in supporting and protecting the people of Sudan, for example through the African Union-UN Hybrid Peacekeeping Mission in Darfur. In addition, the UK is a leading humanitarian donor in Sudan, with the majority of the Department for International Development’s £47 million programme in 2015-16 focussed on the provision of humanitarian assistance.
