South Sudan has been flooding for four straight years, affecting a million people and swamping 2/3 of the country. The situation around Bentiu is particularly extreme: the northern city is completely surrounded, cut off by miles of water in all directions
I’m awed by the effort IDA had taken to bring everyone together and in making sure that their voices can be heard. Very humbled to have been a small part of this event.
