These are conflicts that typically do not draw the intervention of great political powers. Sudan's sad civil war continues apace, with ten million people officially displaced, and no one strongly inclined to intervene.

In Afghanistan, chronic food insecurity affects 12.4 million of the population, with Taliban leaders quoted as saying, "Just look to God for your food." As the number of wars and crises seems to be increasing, it is often the church that is the only hope of channelling enough emergency aid.
