Sudan
Republic of the Sudan
Sudan is a large, resource-rich country currently experiencing severe economic and humanitarian crisis due to the armed conflict that erupted in April 2023 between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF).
Prior to the conflict, Sudan's economy was driven by agriculture (the Gezira scheme is one of the world's largest irrigation projects), gold mining (Africa's third-largest producer), livestock, and gum arabic (world's largest producer). The country lost 75% of its oil revenue when South Sudan seceded in 2011.
The conflict has devastated infrastructure, displaced millions, and collapsed normal economic activity in many regions. International engagement focuses on humanitarian assistance and ceasefire negotiations. Economic recovery will require political stabilization, massive reconstruction, and reintegration into international financial systems.

Climate Readiness Full ranking
How this is computed
Adaptive capacity to absorb climate finance and adapt, following the readiness dimension of the ND-GAIN framework, from measured indicators only. It is not a measure of emissions or physical climate vulnerability.
- Energy access (30%): World Bank, access to electricity (% of population). The single most climate and energy specific signal held: SDG 7 and the clean-energy transition.
- Governance readiness (20%): Transparency International, Corruption Perceptions Index (0-100). ND-GAIN governance readiness: the capacity to govern and deploy climate finance. Higher is cleaner.
- Human readiness (20%): UNDP, Human Development Index (0-1). ND-GAIN social readiness: the adaptive capacity of the population.
- Economic readiness (15%): World Bank, GDP per capita (current US$), latest measured year. ND-GAIN economic readiness: the capacity to finance adaptation. Scored relative to the covered set.
- Digital readiness (15%): World Bank, individuals using the Internet (% of population). Information systems for early warning and adaptation.
A country is scored only when at least 4 of the five indicators are held. Sub-scores are weighted and renormalised over the indicators that are present; nothing is estimated for one that is absent.
