Deep dives
Sudanese Culture of Sharing and Food Aid Initiative
The Sudanese culture emphasizes sharing, where those who can afford meals are now providing for neighbors in need. Mohan Nadell-Bilal established Khartoum Kitchen, an initiative to combat hunger by offering nutritious meals like lentil stew with peanut butter to approximately 400 people initially. Despite being based in the UK, Mohan's project manages 11 kitchens directly and four more in partnership with relatives in Sudan.
