What did the UN refugee agency do in south sudan

How effective were POC camps in south sudan
protection of citizen camps provided a place for displaced people to go, Benitu has 120,000 people living in it. Contained school, houses and markets.Concerned about health got WHO to set up an oral cholera vaccine but they were set up to be short term and people became reliant on them so the living standards fell and it was the perfect place for diseases to spread. People didn’t go back to their farms as their land would be infertile and they also wouldn’t be protected by the UN anymore so there was a higher chance of rape/murder. They also didn’t help stop the conflict
what did the UN ask the government to do in south sudan
The UN called above the government to put the good of the country above the leaders personal ambitions and find a political solution rather than military
how did the south Sudanese government intervene in south sudan
Didn’t help with the Human rights violation sin the upper Nile with refugees and humanitarian personnel attacked. Failed to protect its citizens. Has the most potential to stop the conflict.
how did GESS intervene in south sudan
is funded by part of the £100 million that the UK donated and supports 4000 schools and help 1/2 a million children receive an education
how did the world food program intervene in south sudan
planes drop food which helps people with no food but also fuels the war as soldiers could have the food and continue to have the energy to fight. Undermines local farmers as people would rather get free food- creates reliance as the grown goes infertile when nothing is being grown on it
how effective are NGOS at intervention in SS
small scale, long term development, health and education, relevancy, kickstart development
consequences of POC camps on local communities
Provide safety, healthcare, food and shelter. However is an ideal place for diseases to spread easily the camps can also create dependency. Its also expensive for the UN to keep the camps running. Positive in the short term less so in the long term
consequences of livestock training on local communities
NGO providing an education for people means they can start farms and produce food/milk for themselves and eventually can sell it to make a profit helping them develop in the long term for food security, nourishment and can lead to more opportunities
consequences of cholera treatment centres on local communities
WHO set up cholera treatment centres which is beneficial for long term development as if people aren’t ill then they will spend less time away from work so will earn more money
consequences of food aid on local communities
food aid undermines local farmers and puts people out of jobs so people stop growing food making the land infertile so people become reliant on the food aid.
consequences of UN struggling to get places in certain weather on local communities
due to heavy rains and fighting the UN aid workers cant provide aid to some people as they cant get to them which creates inequality in safety and are unable to protect everyone.
