Today, the @SSRCS made an important milestone by signing the Tripartite Agreement with @ifrc and @ICRC for the implementation of Sevilla Agreement 2.0. This agreement is a sign of trust & mutual respect that commits the entire #RCRC family to do more together for people in need.

[ICRC South Sudan @ICRC_SSudan]

To continue working together to support communities affected by armed conflict & natural disasters in #SouthSudan, the #ICRC, the @ifrc, and the @SSRCS signed a Movement Coordination Agreement last week.

The agreement renews their joint commitment for the next five years. #SSoT.

[ICRC South Sudan @ICRC_SSudan]

Together with @SSRCS , we distributed emergency cash assistance in Panyikang County to approximately 3,000 people who fled armed conflict from Jonglei into Upper Nile State #SouthSudan.

The assistance aims to help families afford basic needs and rebuild their lives with dignity.

[ICRC South Sudan @ICRC_SSudan]

In 2025, together with the @SSRCS, we repaired 72 handpumps in cooperation with the SSRC, restoring access to water for over 36,000 IDPs and distributed water filters to about 6,500 households in #SouthSudan.

[ICRC South Sudan @ICRC_SSudan]

Over 2,500 people displaced due to conflict are now accessing clean water from five previously broken handpumps that we have repaired together with @SSRCS in Jamrara and Mundu, Central Equatoria State.
We are planning to repair 20 more hand pumps. #SouthSudan

[IFRC @ifrc]

In Camp Zero, families sleep on mats or bare ground. Food and clean water are scarce, and daily life is a constant struggle.

The @SSRCS, with support from @IFRC, is installing latrines and delivering clean water daily, helping reduce health risks.

But with fragile shelters, and rising flood risks, more support is urgently needed.

[ICRC South Sudan @ICRC_SSudan]

We improved water supply for more than 54,500 people through the construction or rehabilitation of 84 handpumps, five spring catchments, and three water yards in rural communities in #SouthSudan, benefitting 54, 500 people last year, in 2025. #SSoT

[IFRC Africa @IFRCAfrica]

In Renk, South Sudan, thousands forced to flee conflict now face another daily struggle: finding safe water.

Thanks to the @SSRCS, communities are gaining access to clean water and essential sanitation — helping people stay safe and healthy despite the challenges of displacement.

Simple actions like handwashing can prevent disease and save lives.
