IOM – DTM Central Equatoria State Event Tracking Report. Publication Date Central Equatoria State Event Tracking Report Publication date: 4 September 2020 Lainya, Terekeka & Juba County On 20 and 21 August 2020, clashes between NAS and SSPSF forces in Juba and Lainya Counties led to the displacement of people living in the surrounding areas. Clashes that included the targeting of vice presidential bodyguards around 20 August 2020 in strategic areas around Lobonok, forced 19,100 individuals (3,820 households) to move from Yapa and seek refuge among host communities in Lobonok with a further 6,208 individuals (1,001 households) fleeing from Opiri to Liria in Juba County. Additional instances of displacement occurred in Lainya County where 1,574 individuals (261 households) were forced to move to Lainya Centre due to clashes between NAS and SSPDF forces in Giwaya, Lainya County. Up to 86,720 individuals (17,344 households) were displaced from lowlands in Gemmeiza, Nyori, and Terekeka Town to highlands of the latter due to serious flooding resulting from heavy rainfall. Floods also forced 2,520 individuals (420 households) to move from lowland areas to highland areas of Jabal Lado in Juba County. The displaced found refuge among host communities. The most urgent needs identified include food, water, shelter, sanitation and protection .1 1 Please note that not all coordinates for reported locations were available at the time of writing.

  • Visit to Terekeka [Oct 2020]
    Visit to Terekeka and St Stephen’s School, South Sudan – 17th – 18th March 2020 Report by Mike Quinlan Introduction Following my participation in a SOMA (Sharing of Ministries Abroad) Mission to the Internal Province of Jonglei from 7th to 16th March, I was able to make a short visit to Terekeka and to St Stephen’s School escorted by the Bishop of Terekeka, Rt Rev Paul Moji Fajala. Bp Paul met me at my hotel in Juba and drove me to Terekeka on the morning of Tuesday 17th March. We visited St Stephen’s School and I also saw some of the other sights of Terekeka (mainly boats on the bank of the Nile). Bp Paul also took me to see his house in Terekeka. After a night at a comfortable hotel, which had electricity and a fan in the evening, Bp Paul drove me back to Juba on the morning of Wednesday 18th March. I was privileged to be taken to meet the Primate of the Episcopal Church of South Sudan (ECSS), Most Rev Justin Badi Arama at his office. ABp Justin is also the chair of SOMA’s International Council. Bp Paul also took me to his house in Juba, where I met his wife, Edina, and had lunch before he took me to the airport to catch my flight back to UK. Terekeka is a small town about 75km north of Juba on the west bank of the White Nile. It takes about two and a half hours to drive there from Juba on a dirt road that becomes very difficult during the rainy season.

  • Population Mobility Mapping (Pmm) South Sudan: Ebola Virus Disease (Evd) Preparedness
    POPULATION MOBILITY MAPPING (PMM) SOUTH SUDAN: EBOLA VIRUS DISEASE (EVD) PREPAREDNESS CONTEXT The 10th EVD outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) is still ongoing, with a total of 3,428 EVD cases reported as of 2 February 2020, including 3,305 confirmed and 118 probable cases. A total of 2,250 deaths have been reported, with a case fatality ratio (CFR) of 65.6%. Although the rate of new cases in DRC has decreased and stabilized, two health zones reported 25 new confirmed cases within the 21-day period from 13 January to 2 February 2019: Beni (n=18) and Mabalako (n=30).1 The EVD outbreak in DRC is the 2nd largest in history and is affecting the north-eastern provinces of the country, which border Uganda, Rwanda and South Sudan. South Sudan, labeled a 'priority 1' preparedness country, has continued to scale up preparedeness efforts since the outbreak was confirmed in Kasese district in South Western Uganda on 11 June 2019 and in Ariwara, DRC (70km from the South Sudan border) on 30 June 2019. South Sudan remains at risk while there is active transmission in DRC, due to cross-border population movements and a weak health system. To support South Sudan’s Ministry of Health and other partners in their planning for EVD preparedness, the International Organization for Migration (IOM) has applied its Population Mobility Mapping (PMM) approach to inform the prioritization of locations for preparedness activities. Aim and Objectives The aim of PMM in South Sudan is to inform the 2020 EVD National Preparedness Plan by providing partners with relevant information on population mobility and cross-border movements.

Thanks to the allocation of USD $2.1 million from the Central Emergency Relief Fund Ebola preparedness in South Sudan, including the capacity to detect and respond to Ebola, has been strengthened.

  • Village Assessment Survey Morobo County
    Village Assessment Survey COUNTY ATLAS 2013 Morobo County Central Equatoria State Village Assessment Survey The Village Assessment Survey (VAS) has been used by IOM since 2007 and is a comprehensive data source for South Sudan that provides detailed information on access to basic services, infra- structure and other key indicators essential to informing the development of efficient reintegra- tion programmes. The most recent VAS represents IOM’s largest effort to date encompassing 30 priority counties comprising of 871 bomas, 197 payams, 468 health facilities, and 1,277 primary schools. There was a particular emphasis on assessing payams outside state capitals, where com- paratively fewer comprehensive assessments have been carried out. IOM conducted the assess- ment in priority counties where an estimated 72% of the returnee population (based on esti- mates as of 2012) has resettled. The county atlas provides spatial data at the boma level and should be used in conjunction with the VAS county profile.

  • Mining in South Sudan: Opportunities and Risks for Local Communities
    » REPORT JANUARY 2016 MINING IN SOUTH SUDAN: OPPORTUNITIES AND RISKS FOR LOCAL COMMUNITIES BASELINE ASSESSMENT OF SMALL-SCALE AND ARTISANAL GOLD MINING IN CENTRAL AND EASTERN EQUATORIA STATES, SOUTH SUDAN MINING IN SOUTH SUDAN FOREWORD We are delighted to present you the findings of an assessment conducted between February and May 2015 in two states of South Sudan. With this report, based on dozens of interviews, focus group discussions and community meetings, a multi-disciplinary team of civil society and government representatives from South Sudan are for the first time shedding light on the country’s artisanal and small-scale mining sector. The picture that emerges is a remarkable one: artisanal gold mining in South Sudan ‘employs’ more than 60,000 people and might indirectly benefit almost half a million people. The vast majority of those involved in artisanal mining are poor rural families for whom alluvial gold mining provides critical income to supplement their subsistence livelihood of farming and cattle rearing. Ostensibly to boost income for the cash-strapped government, artisanal mining was formalized under the Mining Act and subsequent Mineral Regulations. However, owing to inadequate information-sharing and a lack of government mining sector staff at local level, artisanal miners and local communities are not aware of these rules. In reality there is almost no official monitoring of artisanal or even small-scale mining activities. Despite the significant positive impact on rural families’ income, the current form of artisanal mining does have negative impacts on health, the environment and social practices. With most artisanal, small-scale and exploration mining taking place in rural areas with abundant small arms and limited presence of government security forces, disputes over land access and ownership exacerbate existing conflicts.
