Our Journey
The evolution of the Global Sudanese Refugee Community (GSRC) from 2013 to present.
The Foundation
Founded by Idris Adam Salih and a group of committed members. Early meetings were held informally outside mosques and in home compounds to address the urgent needs of Sudanese and South Sudanese refugees.
Breaking Barriers
Recognizing language as the first hurdle, we launched basic English classes. This marked the beginning of our community-based approach to integration and self-reliance.
Vocational Skills
Received three Singer-type tailoring machines from well-wishers. This small gift allowed us to launch tailoring programs that provided practical, income-generating skills.
Expanding Horizons
Formed vital partnerships with NRC, JRS, and OPM. We introduced adult literacy, psychosocial support, computer training, and early childhood development programs.
A Central Hub
Reached a milestone by renting our first official premises. This transition from informal meetings to a structured institution allowed for dedicated training units and soap production labs.
Fostering Resilience
GSRC remains committed to empowering refugees and host communities through education, skills, and peaceful coexistence.
