South Sudan faces a severe humanitarian crisis due to conflict, displacement, and food insecurity.
Ongoing violent conflict has displaced millions and left many in need of humanitarian assistance. Food insecurity remains rampant in 2024, with 2.5 million children and women at risk of acute malnutrition.
The crisis has also disrupted education and healthcare services, leaving many without access to essential services and support. The crisis has also led to a significant increase in gender-based violence, including sexual violence and exploitation.
The population in South Sudan is affected by malaria, and they are also experiencing an outbreak of measles with over 5,400 reported since 2022, where too few children are immunized against it. Psychosocial support for vulnerable populations is vital.
Petronas, Malaysia’s energy corporation, initiated the Water for Life program to improve access to clean water. They installed tens of thousands of solar-powered wells, capable of producing substantial quantities of safe drinking water daily, for sanitation and health purposes as well as boosting local agricultural production.
