Aweil East and Rubkona remain of high concern, given the high number of returnees arrival and insecurity that are limiting households’ livelihoods. Most of the arrivals lack assets and resources to support their families and are reliant on humanitarian assistance. According to the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification report released in 2024, the food security situation in both counties is projected to deteriorate further. In addition, in Nasir, a dispute arose between local youths and members of South Sudan People’s Defense Forces in February 2024, resulting in fatalities, property destructions and displacement. Over fifty households were displaced to temporary camps in schools, churches and open spaces. Between July 2023 to April 2024, 3,000 returnees from Sudan had arrived and settled back in Nasir and Rubkona. Lack of financial resources, inflation, disruption of supply chain and reduced market functionality further exacerbated the living conditions of returnees and internally displaced persons. Under this proposed intervention, the International Organization for Migration is providing cash and shelter assistance to 2,400 households as well as in-kind shelter/non-food item kits to 6,200 households.
