  • The Conflict in Upper Nile State (18 March 2014 Update)
    The Conflict in Upper Nile State (18 March 2014 update) Three months have elapsed since widespread conflict broke out in South Sudan, and Malakal, Upper Nile’s state capital, remains deserted and largely burned to the ground. The state is patchwork of zones of control, with the rebels holding the largely Nuer south (Longochuk, Maiwut, Nasir, and Ulang counties), and the government retaining the north (Renk), east (Maban and Melut), and the crucial areas around Upper Nile’s oil fields. The rest of the state is contested. The conflict in Upper Nile began as one between different factions within the SPLA but has now broadened to include the targeted ethnic killing of civilians by both sides. With the status of negotiations in Addis Ababa unclear, and the rebel’s 14 March decision to refuse a regional peacekeeping force, conflict in the state shows no sign of ending in the near future. With the first of the seasonal rains now beginning, humanitarian costs of ongoing conflict are likely to be substantial. Conflict began in Upper Nile on 24 December 2013, after a largely Nuer contingent of the Sudan People’s Liberation Army’s (SPLA) 7th division, under the command of General Gathoth Gatkuoth, declared their loyalty to former vice-president Riek Machar and clashed with government troops in Malakal. Fighting continued for three days. The central market was looted and shops set on fire. Clashes also occurred in Tunja (Panyikang county), Wanding (Nasir county), Ulang (Ulang county), and Kokpiet (Baliet county), as the SPLA’s 7th division fragmented, largely along ethnic lines, and clashed among themselves, and with armed civilians.

  • Ulang Town, Nyangora, Barmach, Ulang County, Upper Nile State
    IRNA Report: [Ulang Town, Nyangora, Barmach, Ulang County, Upper Nile State] [18-20 September 2014] This IRNA Report is a product of Inter-Agency Assessment mission conducted and information compiled based on the inputs provided by partners on the ground including; government authorities, affected communities/IDPs and agencies. Highlights: • Displacement was primarily within Ulang county and IDPs and host community are well integrated • In Ulang town people are primarily returning IDPs while in Nyangora and Barmach they are a mix of IDPs and host community • Preliminary numbers are 8,440 returning IDPs in Ulang town, 4,000 IDPs and 8,000 host community in Nyangora, and 6,300 IDPs and 7,600 host community in Barmach • Proxy malnutrition at very high rates, SAM 16.6%, MAM 28.4%, and GAM 45% Food distribution and re-establishment of health and nutrition services also high priorities • • NGOs planning response include GOAL (health and nutrition), ADRA (education), Nile Hope (protection), NP (protection), Medair (WASH), and Food For the Hungry with WFP (FSL) • As Ulang is on the Malakal – Nasir road, it is vulnerable to attack in the dry season. Contingencies to move operations to Nyangora (across the river in sight of Ulang town) must therefore be in place, or response should focus on Nyangora to begin with. Situation overview From 18-20 September a joint assessment team visited Ulang town, Nyangora, and Barmach in Ulang County, Upper Nile State, to assess reports of humanitarian need resulting from conflict-related displacement that occurred in the first half of 2014. On 18 and 20 September the team assessed Ulang town and on 19 September the team split and assessed Nyangora and Barmach, across the Sobat river from Ulang town.

    The Project for Comprehensive Planning and Support for Urgent Development on Social Economic Infrastructure in Malakal Town in the Republic of South Sudan CHAPTER 12 EDUCATION In this chapter, following perspectives regarding the Education Sector are presented and analysed; 1) Institutional Framework, 2) Policies and Strategies, 3) Financial Resources, 4) the Operation and Maintenance System, 5) Facilities and Staffing, 6) Findings from Relevant Survey(s), 7) Programmes and Projects, and 8) Needs and Issues. And then in section, 9) development plans are formulated based on the present situation, needs and issues, and in 10) projects are proposed from technical point of view. 12.1 INSTITUTIONAL FRAMEWORK In ROSS, the majority of adults and children have not had the opportunity to attend school due to decades of civil war. During this period, the development of basic services has been non-existent and accessing the education infrastructure was difficult. As a strategy for recovering education, The Ministry of General Education and Instruction (MOGEI) has constructed a parallel system of formal and alternative education systems. The educational system in Republic of South Sudan (ROSS) consists of early childhood development, primary education, secondary education, alternative education technical schools and higher education. ROSS is following an 8-4-4 education system (8 years of basic education, four years of secondary education and four years of tertiary education). The State Ministry of Education (MoE), Upper Nile State (UNS) is responsible for the implementation of basic, secondary and technical education as well as sharing in the governance of the tertiary education. Basic education and alternative education systems use the same curriculum though they have different systems for administering the syllabus.
