South Sudan Crisis - Regional Emergency Assistance - UNHCR Emergency Appeal 2014

July 2014 - The complex humanitarian situation in South Sudan has become much worse since fighting broke out between government and anti-government forces in Juba, the capital city, in December 2013. The fighting has displaced some 1.1 million people from their homes within South Sudan, and more than 400,000 people have sought refuge in neighbouring countries (Kenya, Ethiopia, Sudan and Uganda). Agricultural production has been disrupted, and essential basic services, such as water points, schools, and medical facilities have been shut down or destroyed in the fighting. Immediate humanitarian assistance needs both within South Sudan and in neighbouring countries include food, health care, shelter, protection, water, sanitation and hygiene. With the support of DFATD and other donors, the United Nations Refugee Agency (UNHCR) is providing emergency assistance to over 400,000 people seeking refuge in Kenya, Ethiopia, Sudan and Uganda. Some project activities includes the provision of shelter (tents and plastic sheeting) safe drinking water, and emergency relief items, such as blankets, sleeping mats, mosquito nets, jerry cans and hygiene materials for women. UNHCR is also providing psychosocial support, including counselling, to all refugees who are survivors of sexual and gender-based violence, and supporting specific protection activities, such as family reunification services and education, to safeguard displaced children.
