country population
7.1 million people
in high acute food insecurity (April–July 2024), of whom 79 000 in Catastrophe (IPC Phase 5)
suffer from acute malnutrition
2.27 million South Sudanese
residing as refugees in neighbouring countries
to assist 3.9 million people in 2024 FAO requires USD 60 million
FAO is providing livestock vaccination and treatment, solar irrigation pumps and post-harvest equipment, trainings, agricultural support and fisheries assistance to restore people’s food security, nutrition and resilience. Yet, without urgent funding to support a sustained multisectoral response, people will be at greater risk of famine and destitution.
