OVERVIEW
The situation across South Sudan remains highly volatile following recent clashes in Upper Nile and Jonglei states. Access constraints and obstacles continue to hamper the delivery of humanitarian aid by road.
With the start of the rainy season, IOM is closely working with partners to enhance efforts to improve living conditions in Protection of Civilians (PoC) areas to mitigate the risk of waterborne diseases including cholera and hepatitis E.
Three mobile humanitarian hubs are now in the country and ready for deployment. These mobile hubs will enable the rapid establishment of base camps for the humanitarian community to reach displaced people beyond PoC areas and deliver life-saving assistance to conflict affected communities in remote locations.
Highlights
- Three mobile humanitarian hubs are now in the country and ready for deployment to field locations
