Key Responsibilities
Context
A political crisis within the Government of South Sudan which began on 15th December 2013 has spilled over into armed conflict based on ethnic divisions. The result of this has been significant movement as people have fled their homes within the capital, Juba, and other areas affected by fighting. The major newly reported concentrations of displaced people are in Central Equatoria, Lakes, Jonglei, Upper Nile and Unity states. In particular over 75,000 people from Jonglei have been displaced to Minkaman and surrounding areas in Awerial County, Lakes State.
