Commissioner of Humanitarian Aid in Northern State Meets with Initiative of Sudanese University Professors to Support Displaced Persons (MAGSOU)

The Commissioner of the Humanitarian Aid Commission in the Northern State, Dr. Abdel Rahman Ali Khairy, met today with a delegation from the Initiative of Sudanese University Professors (MAGSOU) in the Northern State, led by its general coordinator, Professor Ahmed Mohamed Zain. During the meeting, the Commissioner was briefed on the initiative's goals and programs. MAGSOU was established on August 16 of this year by a group of esteemed academics from various Sudanese universities in response to the ongoing war and the resulting hardships faced by citizens and university professors alike, including displacement, difficult living conditions, and uncertain futures.

The initiative aims to highlight the vital role of university professors in serving the community both during peacetime and, more significantly, during war and displacement. It focuses on providing humanitarian aid, as well as psychological, health, and educational support to displaced persons and refugees. Additionally, it seeks to support university professors and create a plan for participating in the reconstruction efforts, particularly for universities whose infrastructure has been affected by the conflict.
