WFP director on the humanitarian crisis, starvation in Sudan

Season 2025 Episode 243 | 4m 14s

The International Rescue Committee estimates that worldwide, countries with about 11% of the world’s population account for a staggering 82% of people needing humanitarian aid. William Brangham spoke with Cindy McCain, director of the United Nations’ World Food Program, about what’s happening in Sudan, where the world’s largest — and often overlooked — humanitarian crisis is unfolding.
