ASSESSMENTS AND OUTCOMES DTM IOM participated in two joint humanitarian assessments, the first in Kajo-Keji and the second in Tore and Rasul (Yei County). The findings from Kajo-Keji, which indicated a significant increase in returns, as well as a need for health services and a potential new PoE screening location (Jalimo), were presented to the BH&POE technical working group. The assessment in Tore and Rasul revealed two points of entry from DRC, though incoming flows were reported to be low (<50 per week) due to the lack of sizeable settlements on the DRC side of the border. WASH/HEALTH ● IOM conducted an assessment visit to Tore and Rasul in Yei as part of an interagency assessment mission in these areas ● On 19 June 2019, IOM held a meeting with the Yei River Handwashing demonstration in Yei © IOM 2019 / Collins YONGULE State Minister of Health and Environment, The DG Yei River State Ministry of Health, WHO representatives from the state, other partners, and the Commissioner for Morobo county at Morobo County Commissioner’s office ● IOM EVD coordinators from Juba and Yei conducted monitoring visits to PoE sites in Morobo county (Salia Musalla, Kaya, Morobo and Bazi) and held meetings with ground teams to maintain direct feedback from field teams ● IOM and UNICEF are conducting a joint EVD assessment visit to Tore county in Yei River state form 1st July to 5th July 2019 COORDINATION NOTES IOM continues to actively participate in the national level coordination meetings, such as SAG, NTF and TWG meetings, as well as the IPC/WASH, Border Health and Points of Entry (BH &PoE), Epi & Surveillance, Risk Communications Social Mobilization and Access and Security Technical Working Groups (TWGs). IOM also attends weekly Yei STF meetings as well as the monthly coordination meetings in Morobo and Kajo-Keji counties. IOM conducts regular monitoring and supportive supervision at all of the PoE sites. SECURITY & ACCESS ISSUES PLANS FOR JULY ● Continue the health and hygiene promotion activities in HEALTH areas around the PoEs Remote monitoring is done for Lasu and Tokori PoE sites due to security/ ● Continue with establishment of the medical waste access issues. Poor mobile network makes communication with the team management system at PHCCs close to existing PoEs on the ground more challenging. ● Continue to assess other locations for possible PoE screening DTM site establishment Security constraints and poor telecommunications infrastructure affected ● DTM plans to continue monitoring population movements the ability of some FMPs to submit data on time on a weekly basis. from DRC, Uganda and CAR into South Sudan paying DTM planned to re-activate three FMPs in Juba to better monitor long- special attention to flows from EVD affected areas.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Public Private Cooperation Fragile States
    Public Private Cooperation Fragile States Annexe F to the Field study report South Sudan As part of the Country Study South Sudan Working group: Public Private Cooperation in Fragile States July 2009 1 Supplementary Document (annex F) to the Field Research Report on Public Private Cooperation opportunities in Southern Sudan, Nov 2009 by Irma Specht & Mark van Dorp (main researchers) and Washington Okeyo, Marjolein C. Groot and John Penn de Ngong 1. Specific (sub) sectors in more detail This annex provides, in more detail, the ongoing and potential sectors relevant for economic development and PPC in South Sudan. These are details found during the field research and are to complement the overview provided in the overall report. Oil and mineral production The most important economic activity in Southern Sudan is oil production, which is currently taking place in the oil rich regions of Upper Nile, Abyei and Unity State. Oil was discovered in Sudan in the mid-1970s, but production did not start until 1999. The pioneer companies Chevron and Shell were forced to leave in 1984, after the outbreak of civil war. They eventually sold their rights in 1990, booking a $1 billion loss. Major players that have controlled the oil industry in Sudan since the mid-nineties include the Chinese National Petroleum Company (CNPC) and Petronas Caligary from Malaysia, Lundin Petroleum from Sweden and ONGC Videsh from India. While, at a global level, Sudan is a minor oil exporting country, China, India and Malaysia have invested billions of dollars in the country, including outside the oil industry. They consider their relations with the country not only as economic, but also geostrategic and energy-strategic successes that are worth defending.
