During 2020, gender-based violence, where humanitarian-development sub-national violence and localized conflicts intensified and collaboration can make a real difference on people’s lives. flared up in areas that had been relatively peaceful for years. Humanitarian access deteriorated, and the number of aid Throughout these various shocks, the affected communities workers killed tripled from three in 2019 to nine in 2020. continued to demonstrate a great sense of solidarity.

The violence must stop so that the people of South created urgent protection needs, especially for women Sudan can finally recover from the crisis and rebuild their and children. lives and their communities. The 2021 Humanitarian Response Plan sets our three strategic objectives for the year. They guide nearly 200 humanitarian organizations to save lives and protect people; ensure people’s access to basic services; and enable people to recover from the crisis. The synergy among these objectives is essential to achieve meaningful results for the affected communities. In response to the anticipated catastrophic levels of food insecurity in parts of the country, a multisectoral scaled up response is already under way with an enhanced level of coordination at the local level. Thousands of humanitarian workers, most of them South Sudanese, are currently working tirelessly to save lives and provide humanitarian assistance in the six most food insecure areas – Pibor, Akobo, Aweil South, Tonj East, Tonj North and Tonj South.

    international journal on minority and group rights 22 (2015) 410-434 brill.com/ijgr “They Are Now Community Police”: Negotiating the Boundaries and Nature of the Government in South Sudan through the Identity of Militarised Cattle-keepers Naomi Pendle PhD Candidate, London School of Economics, London, UK [email protected] Abstract Armed, cattle-herding men in Africa are often assumed to be at a relational and spatial distance from the ‘legitimate’ armed forces of the government. The vision constructed of the South Sudanese government in 2005 by the Comprehensive Peace Agreement removed legitimacy from non-government armed groups including localised, armed, defence forces that protected communities and cattle. Yet, militarised cattle-herding men of South Sudan have had various relationships with the governing Sudan Peoples’ Liberation Movement/Army over the last thirty years, blurring the government – non government boundary. With tens of thousands killed since December 2013 in South Sudan, questions are being asked about options for justice especially for governing elites. A contextual understanding of the armed forces and their relationship to gov- ernment over time is needed to understand the genesis and apparent legitimacy of this violence.

  • An Analysis of Pibor County, South Sudan from the Perspective of Displaced People
    Researching livelihoods and services affected by conflict Livelihoods, access to services and perceptions of governance: An analysis of Pibor county, South Sudan from the perspective of displaced people Working Paper 23 Martina Santschi, Leben Moro, Philip Dau, Rachel Gordon and Daniel Maxwell September 2014 About us Secure Livelihoods Research Consortium (SLRC) aims to generate a stronger evidence base on how people make a living, educate their children, deal with illness and access other basic services in conflict-affected situations (CAS). Providing better access to basic services, social protection and support to livelihoods matters for the human welfare of people affected by conflict, the achievement of development targets such as the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and international efforts at peace- and state-building. At the centre of SLRC’s research are three core themes, developed over the course of an intensive one- year inception phase: . State legitimacy: experiences, perceptions and expectations of the state and local governance in conflict-affected situations . State capacity: building effective states that deliver services and social protection in conflict- affected situations . Livelihood trajectories and economic activity under conflict The Overseas Development Institute (ODI) is the lead organisation. SLRC partners include the Centre for Poverty Analysis (CEPA) in Sri Lanka, Feinstein International Center (FIC, Tufts University), the Afghanistan Research and Evaluation Unit (AREU), the Sustainable Development Policy
