Flood, Displacement and violence in South Sudan

This interactive report explores how flooding intersects with displacement and violence in South Sudan. Using the case of Jonglei state, the report finds that the recurrent flooding have displaced hundreds of thousands of Jonglei’s population to Equatoria region, and this has sparked competition and conflict over resources, especially between migrating herders and the host communities. Finally, it outlines recommendations on how aid agencies and donors can address these flood-induced tensions, including a broader conflict in Equatoria region.
