The 1993 famine in Sudan occurred in 1993, in Sudan.
It came amidst political unrest and civil war in Sudan.
In Kongor, the famine killed 20,000 and made 100,000 people leave the region.
This famine was the subject of Pulitzer Prize-winning photography The Vulture and the Little Girl taken by South African photojournalist Kevin Carter. Carter committed suicide shortly after being awarded the prize, possibly a result of trauma from witnessing the effects of the famine first-hand.
