Kalma, Sudan

The three states comprising Darfur within Sudan

Kalma is a relocation camp in the Darfur region of Sudan. It is located 17 kilometers outside of Nyala, Sudan.[1] It is estimated that there were over 90,000 residents in the camp in 2007. [2] Most, if not all, of the residents are there because of the violence caused by the Darfur conflict.[3]
