  • Tracking the Flow of Government Transfers Financing Local Government Service Delivery in South Sudan
    Tracking the flow of Government transfers Financing local government service delivery in South Sudan 1.0 Introduction The Government of South Sudan through its Ministry of Finance and Economic Planning (MoFEP) makes transfers of funds to states and local governments on a monthly basis to finance service delivery. Broadly speaking, the government makes five types of transfers to the local government level: a) Conditional salary transfers: these funds are transferred to be used by the county departments of education, health and water to pay for the salaries of primary school teachers, health workers and water sector workers respectively. b) Operation transfers for county service departments: these funds are transferred to the counties for the departments of education, health and water to cater for the operation costs of these county departments. c) County block transfer: each county receives a discretionary amount which it can spend as it wishes on activities of the county. d) Operation transfer to service delivery units (SDUs): these funds are transferred to primary schools and primary health care facilities under the jurisdiction of each county to cater for operation costs of these units. e) County development grant (CDG): the national annual budget includes an item to be transferred to each county to enable the county conduct development activities such as construction of schools and office blocks; in practice however this money has not been released to the counties since 2011 mainly due to a lack of funds. 2.0 Transfer and spending modalities/guidelines Funds are transferred by the national Ministry of Finance and Economic Planning from the government accounts at Bank of South Sudan to the respective state’s bank accounts through the state ministries of Finance (SMoF).

  • South Sudan Human Rights Monitor
    SOUTH SUDAN HUMAN RIGHTS MONITOR February 1, 2018 to May 31, 2018 This report is based on the work of internationally trained local monitors on the ground in South Sudan working for a national human rights organization. Both these monitors and the organization must remain anonymous given present security concerns. The information reported herein meets the threshold for initiating an investigation. There is a reasonable basis to believe that the following incidents occurred. I. INTRODUCTION South Sudan has experienced widespread human rights abuses and a plethora of crimes, including a significant amount of sexual and gender-based and ethnic violence, since the outbreak of the conflict in December 2013. Since the start of the conflict, violence has escalated at an alarming rate across the country, resulting in widespread killings, rapes, extensive property damage and looting of civilian property. This report details 19 incidents of human rights abuses and crimes committed against civilians that have been documented by local monitors working anonymously in multiple locations around the country. The gross human rights violations and crimes included in this report illustrate the severity of the conflict and its overall impact on the lives of civilians, including damaging their ability to sustain their livelihoods, and the destruction of the social fabric of their communities that will affect generations of South Sudanese. While this report does not cover the totality of human rights abuses and crimes that have occurred in South Sudan during the reporting period, it does provide a reasonable basis to believe that these human rights abuses and crimes have occurred as reported and a clear basis for analysis and human rights advocacy.

  • Country Profiles
    Global Coalition EDUCATION UNDER ATTACK 2020 GCPEA to Protect Education from Attack COUNTRY PROFILES SOUTH SUDAN A peace agreement signed between the government and main opposition groups and enacted in September 2018 contributed to a decrease in violence in South Sudan. However, attacks on education continued to occur during this reporting period, including the use of schools by armed forces and groups, attacks on schools, attacks on students and teachers, and sexual violence at schools. Context Fighting de-escalated between the pro-Riek Machar Sudan People’s Liberation Army in Opposition (SPLA-IO (RM)) and the government’s South Sudan People’s Defense Forces (SSPDF) preceding and following the signing of the Revitalized Agreement on the Resolution of the Conflict in the Republic of South Sudan (R-ARCSS) in September 2018.1799 According to International Crisis Group (ICG), armed conflict noticeably declined in former areas of hostilities such as Bentiu, Wau, and Yei.1800 However, violence escalated again in late 2018 and early 2019 between signatories and non-signatories to the agreement, including the National Salvation Front (NAS) in Central Equatoria state and the Greater Bahr el Ghazal region, in addition to continued intercommunal violence.1801 Violence during the 2017-2019 reporting period occurred in the context of a civil war that erupted in 2013 when a power struggle between President Salva Kiir, of the majority Dinka ethnic group, and former vice-president Riek Machar, of the Nuer ethnic group, triggered ethnically-charged violence between government armed forces and the SPLA-IO (RM), and other affiliatedmilitias and local self-defense groups.1802 Civilians were impacted by the fighting during the 2017-2019 reporting period.

A post-conflict state-building intervention that ignores history and local contexts can cause renewed conflict and violence. (this thesis) 2. Decentralising land governance in war-torn societies in Africa as a way of redressing past injustices on land can result in further tenure insecurity. (this thesis) 3. National environmental laws can only be successfully implemented when they are acknowledged by stakeholders rather than enforced by an authority. 4. Social scientists are better equipped to research their own settings than settings abroad. 5. The vision of the African Union presented in ‘Agenda 2063’ builds on the very colonial heritage it intends to dismantle. 6.
