Description
The Humanitarian Country Team (HCT) of South Sudan is committed to a future that sees people being self-reliant. Sadly, evidence-based needs remain high, and the people of South Sudan will continue to require significant support from the international community throughout 2024.
An estimated 9 million people, including refugees in South Sudan, will experience critical needs in 2024. As the HCT, we aim to target 6 million of these people with some form of humanitarian support, depending on the resources available. This means that some people will experience needs that humanitarians cannot respond to.
The HCT’s two-year strategy, articulated in this document, seeks to maximise opportunities to address peoples’ needs in a collaborative and cooperative way with peace and development actors, leveraging opportunities to address the root causes and drivers of peoples’ needs. The strategy will be reviewed after one year or when the context changes.
