  • Linkages-Success-Stories-South-Sudan
    JULY 2016 SUCCESS STORY Success on Several Levels in South Sudan In South Sudan, obtaining HIV care and treatment is difficult for people living with HIV. Only 10 percent of those eligible are currently enrolled on antiretroviral therapy (ART). But for one key population — female sex workers (FSWs) — the barriers to comprehensive HIV care and treatment are particularly daunting. Many sex workers cannot afford to lose income while waiting for services at overburdened hospitals. And those who do seek care often find providers are reluctant to serve them because of the stigma associated with sex work. Recruiting and retaining FSWs and other key populations (KPs) into the HIV cascade of services is a complex issue that demands a response at many levels. In South Sudan, LINKAGES is helping to generate a demand for services, improve access to KP-friendly services, and create a policy environment that is more conducive to the health rights of key populations. GENERATING DEMAND FOR SERVICES The justified mistrust that FSWs have for the health care system keeps many from seeking the services they need. Peer education and outreach is a critical component of engaging KPs in the HIV cascade. LINKAGES South Sudan conducted a mapping exercise to identify hotspots (or key locations) where sex work takes place. From these locations, 65 FSWs were identified and trained as peer educators to lead participatory education sessions among their peers. The sessions are designed to motivate FSWs to adopt healthy behaviors and develop the skills to do so. The sessions cover topics like condom use, regular screening and treatment for sexually transmitted infections (STIs), periodic testing for HIV, and enrollment into care and treatment services for those living with HIV.

  • Deadly Profits: Illegal Wildlife Trafficking Through Uganda And
    Cover: The carcass of an elephant killed by militarized poachers. Garamba National Park, DRC, April 2016. Photo: African Parks Deadly Profits Illegal Wildlife Trafficking through Uganda and South Sudan By Ledio Cakaj and Sasha Lezhnev July 2017 Executive Summary Countries that act as transit hubs for international wildlife trafficking are a critical, highly profitable part of the illegal wildlife smuggling supply chain, but are frequently overlooked. While considerable attention is paid to stopping illegal poaching at the chain’s origins in national parks and changing end-user demand (e.g., in China), countries that act as midpoints in the supply chain are critical to stopping global wildlife trafficking. They are needed way stations for traffickers who generate considerable profits, thereby driving the market for poaching. This is starting to change, as U.S., European, and some African policymakers increasingly recognize the problem, but more is needed to combat these key trafficking hubs. In East and Central Africa, South Sudan and Uganda act as critical waypoints for elephant tusks, pangolin scales, hippo teeth, and other wildlife, as field research done for this report reveals. Kenya and Tanzania are also key hubs but have received more attention. The wildlife going through Uganda and South Sudan is largely illegally poached at alarming rates from Garamba National Park in the Democratic Republic of Congo, South Sudan, points in West Africa, and to a lesser extent Uganda, as it makes its way mainly to East Asia. Worryingly, the elephant

  • The War(S) in South Sudan: Local Dimensions of Conflict, Governance, and the Political Marketplace
    Conflict Research Programme The War(s) in South Sudan: Local Dimensions of Conflict, Governance, and the Political Marketplace Flora McCrone in collaboration with the Bridge Network About the Authors Flora McCrone is an independent researcher based in East Africa. She has specialised in research on conflict, armed groups, and political transition across the Horn region for the past nine years. Flora holds a master’s degree in Human Rights from LSE and a bachelor’s degree in Anthropology from Durham University. The Bridge Network is a group of eight South Sudanese early career researchers based in Nimule, Gogrial, Yambio, Wau, Leer, Mayendit, Abyei, Juba PoC 1, and Malakal. The Bridge Network members are embedded in the communities in which they conduct research. The South Sudanese researchers formed the Bridge Network in November 2017. The team met annually for joint analysis between 2017-2020 in partnership with the Conflict Research Programme. About the Conflict Research Programme The Conflict Research Programme is a four-year research programme hosted by LSE IDEAS, the university’s foreign policy think tank. It is funded by the UK Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office. Our goal is to understand and analyse the nature of contemporary conflict and to identify international interventions that ‘work’ in the sense of reducing violence or contributing more broadly to the security of individuals and communities who experience conflict. © Flora McCrone and the Bridge Network, February 2021.

  • Magwe County, Eastern Equatoria State
    INTER-AGENCY ASSESSMENT REPORT OF THE LRA AFFECTED POPULATIONS Magwe County, Eastern Equatoria State 19 - 22 September 2006 Emergency Preparedness and Response (EP&R) Unit, OCHA Background: The Lord Resistance Army (LRA) activities have destabilised the security situation of the area and severely affected the livelihood of the ordinary residents in Magwe county and other southern areas bordering with Uganda. Over the past 15 years when the LRA was active in Magwe County, the populations have been living in fear of attacks, properties and assets were looted and or destroyed. Repeated LRA incursions have caused recurrent displacement of ordinary civilians. High level peace talks among the LRA, the Government of Uganda and the GoSS over the past few months have resulted in signing of the “Cessation of Hostility” peace truce and paved the way for further discussions towards bringing a permanent solution to the problem. During the first week of September 2006, Dr. Riek Machar Teny, Vice President of South Sudan with other senior GoSS officials visited a number of locations in the county including Owiny-Ki-Bol (assembly area), Magwe, Pajok (Parajok) and Pogee (along the Sudan Uganda border) to sensitize communities on the progress of the LRA peace talks. As agreed in the Cessation of Hostilities document the LRA soldiers and the associated population will be gathered and encamped in Southern Sudan (Eastern Equatoria, Magwe County – Owiny-ki-Bol and in Nabanga of Western Equatoria) for the duration of the peace talks which is ongoing in Juba. Due to past insecurity, the population in Magwe County has been neglected both in terms of humanitarian as well as development assistance.

  • Evaluation Process and Methods Used
    Annex III Evaluation Process and Methods Used 1. Evaluation Process General Calendar of Visits The field visit to the Sudan lasted five weeks, starting on the 9th of January and ending on the 11th of February. It began in Khartoum, and the original plan was to spend three days in Khartoum and three days in Juba in order to visit NCA/Khartoum projects. However, as the Consultant could not leave Juba as expected (flights were cancelled), five extra days were added to the Juba visit and two more to the Khartoum visit (no daily flights to Nairobi). Upon arrival in Nairobi, the Consultant decided to fly immediately to the field. The first field sites that were visited are two of NPA: Akot in Bahr ci Ghazal and Chukudum in Eastern Equatoria. These sites were visited between 25 January and 1 February with a two-day transition stay in Lokichokio in order to visit the logistical bases of both NCA and NPA. Between 1 and 4 February, the Consultant visited the NCA activities in Ikotos, Isoke and Logutok. During most visits, the Team split into separate groups. The last week of the field trip was spent in Nairobi. The Consultant met the HQ staff of both NPA and NCA and interviewed others like OLS members, SRRA staff and indigenous NGOs. 1.2 Criteria for Selection of Projects As time was too short to visit all the project sites of the two NGOs, it was decided to see the NGOs best programmes in the areas where they have the highest concentration of activities and to get an overview over all types of projects that the NGOs engage in.
