Målsättningen med projektet är att hjälpa Sudans krigs- och svältdrabbade befolkning att ta egna initiativ för byutveckling. 20 st byar kommer få medel så att de själva organisera sig och besluta om vilka projekt som ska prioriteras på bästa sätt för att få deras by "på fötter igen" efter krigstiden.
Varje by kommer få disponera ca. 10,000 USD, och detta sker i samråd med biståndsorganisationen International Aid Services (IAS). Se nedanför för mer detaljer kring målsättningen, hämtat från Sida/SMR ansökan. De insamlade medel till Sudanprojektet kommer tio-dubblas av Sida innan de omsätts.
