## Resource

It's three years today, April 15, since the war in Sudan erupted triggered by a power struggle between the army and paramilitary group, Rapid Support Forces - RSF. The fighting has led to a partitioning of the country and created the world’s largest humanitarian crisis. The number of women and girls needing support in Sudan following gender-based violence has nearly quadrupled since the start of the war, according to a new UN gender alert. We hear from the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, Volker Türk. And across parts of Africa, laws targeting same-sex relationships are tightening. We hear how the LGBTQ+ community is finding ways to create safe spaces. Presenter : Nkechi Ogbonna Producers: Keikantse, Chiamaka Dike, and Blessing Aderogba Technical Producer: Davis Mwasaru Senior Producer: Charles Gitonga Editor: Maryam Abdalla
