South Sudan continues to face severe humanitarian emergencies driven by climate shocks, relentless violence, multiple disease outbreaks and a struggling economy.
UNHCR has declared an internal Level 2 emergency for Ethiopia and Sudan due to the escalating crisis in South Sudan, which will remain in force for six months until November 2025.
The International Organization for Migration (IOM), in partnership with the University of Juba and supported by the European Union, convened a landmark public lecture on managing housing, land, and property rights in South Sudan, highlighting their vital role in supporting long-term recovery for displaced communities.
As conflict persists across much of Sudan, pockets of relative safety have emerged and to date over a million internally displaced Sudanese have been making their way home.
Due to the worsening humanitarian crisis in Sudan with more than 124 million forcibly displaced, out of which 3.4 million fled into neighbouring countries, the Federation-wide Emergency Appeal was revised, increasing the total funding ask from the initial CHF 42 million to CHF 47.5 million and extending the operation end date to December 2025.
