In mid-April 2025, Eshaya Alfull, the founder of Mountains’ Path for Peace (MPP), visited the Nuba Mountains in Sudan to present MPP’s vision for a large-scale agriculture project by engaging with various stakeholders, including regional authorities in the Nuba Mountains. The purpose of this visit was to establish a platform for representatives of regional authorities and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) in the region to share their experiences in agriculture and humanitarian crisis within the area.

Additionally, the event aimed to assess the humanitarian challenges faced by internally displaced persons and inform all stakeholders, including regional government, county commissioners, international and local NGOs, and other authorities involved in the humanitarian response, about the large-scale agriculture project in the Nuba Mountains.

Mountains’ Path for Peace (MPP) has formulated a two-phase response strategy to address the humanitarian crisis in the Nuba Mountains. The initial phase will encompass a six-month food distribution response, followed by a five-year sustainable agriculture initiative. This approach aligns with the recommendations of Refugee International, which emphasizes the importance of providing food and other humanitarian aid to strengthen resilience, support crop growth, and combat future food insecurity.

The Nuba Mountains stands out as one of the few regions in Sudan where robust aid and agricultural development are feasible. MPP is committed to collaborating with various stakeholders, including the Secretariat of Agriculture, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and faith-based organizations within the Nuba Mountains. The primary objective of this collaboration is to execute a comprehensive agriculture project that will substantially enhance resilience, boost crop yields, and mitigate the risk of future food insecurity within the region.
