SOLIDARITÉS INTERNATIONAL (SI) has been operating in South Sudan since 2006, conducting activities in emergency and post emergency context, particularly in rural and semi-urban areas, including refugees/returnees and IDP camp settings.
Context:
Food insecurity is one of the highest in the world due to recurring shocks (consecutive years of widespread flooding, conflict-based displacement), and an ongoing protracted macro-economic crisis.
The country also faces cholera outbreaks on a yearly basis, has very limited sanitation coverage and safe water access remain a challenge for most of the population.
On top of these chronic situations, South Sudan has been highly impacted by the war that started in Sudan in April 2023. By end of 2024, more than 1,000,000 people had entered South Sudan, the vast majority entering through the Joda/ Wunthow border point in Renk County, Upper Nile State (northern part of South Sudan).
More recently, resurgence of internal tensions have led to heightened conflict and analysts are worried that the peace conditions offered by the Peace Agreement may not hold.
As a result, 9,3 million are in need of humanitarian assistance as of 2025.
SI sectors of intervention:
The portfolio includes both WASH & FSL activities. SI's expertise in running emergency WaSH intervention is highly acknowledged by all WaSH actors and donors and SI has been one of the first responders of the cholera response.
In Upper Nile, SI has an office in Renk and in Malakal. The field office in Renk has been set-up to support the ongoing response to the Sudan Crisis and to ensure constant monitoring and rapid access to affected communities. SI's long term presence in Upper Nile enables the organization to ensure proper coordination with other key players on the ground in order to provide a high-quality response and avoid duplication of efforts. The response has focused on cholera since November 2024 while maintaining life saving WASH services for returnees and refugees in the two main transit centres of the country and intervening in the host communities.
In addition, SI has a rapid emergency team based in Juba, who is being deployed following Rapid Needs Assessment in flood, epidemic or conflict induced displacement in the country.
Size of operations:
In 2026, the mission’s estimated budget is around USD 9+ million, and there are 100+ employees. This is the result of a recent scale-up of funding and programming despite the USAID upheaval in 2025.
The mission is currently funded by ECHO, CDCS, FIFSAN, SSHF, DoS, Norway MoFA.
