Assessment of displaced Sudanese school-age children’s mental health at Ad-Damar, River Nile, Sudan, 2024: a descriptive cross-sectional study
The study highlights the urgent need for better mental health support for displaced children, given the high prevalence of mental health issues and inadequate support from schools and families. Future research should include longitudinal studies to evaluate long-term effects and intervention effectiveness. Key steps include improving access to mental health services, fostering supportive educational environments, and enhancing family support systems.
