OVERVIEW

Located in Northeast Africa, South Sudan is the world’s newest nation. South Sudan was affected by a severe famine in 2017 which caused many to flee to neighboring Sudan in search of food. Due to recent civil conflict and ethnic diversity, the Sudanese are immersed in insecurity, poverty, and division.
