Disasters, Conflicts and Migration
Natural Disasters |
||
---|---|---|
Type |
Occurs |
Comments / Details |
Drought |
Yes |
While accessibility throughout the country is marginally improved during the dry season, conflict over scarce resources in areas affected by drought can lead to insecurity and inter-communal conflict. Compounding this is the road and river infrastructure, which is poorly maintained without any long-term maintenance program, which is deteriorating yearly. Eastern Equatoria and parts of Jonglei are frequently affected by drought. Most conflict incidents occur during the dry season, with Jonglei, Unity, Lakes, Upper Nile, and Warrap states recording the largest number of incidents. |
Earthquakes |
No |
Earthquakes rarely occur in South Sudan. |
Epidemics |
No |
Poor sanitation and water contamination have led to outbreaks of cholera. For information on other major infectious diseases, please see the following link: https://www.indexmundi.com/south_sudan/major_infectious_diseases.html |
Extreme Temperatures |
No |
South Sudan can be hot, but extreme temperatures are rare; the average annual temperature is about 28.5° C, with an average annual high of 33.7° C. |

Seasonal Effects on Logistics Capacities
Seasonal Effects on Transport |
||
---|---|---|
Transport Type |
Time Frame |
Comments / Details |
Primary Road Transport |
Rainy season: May to October Dry season: January to May
|
The total estimated track length in South Sudan is approximately 90,200 km (about 56047.68 mi). This includes approximately 14,000 km (about 8699.2 mi) of primary and secondary roads and 6,000 km (about 3728.23 mi) of tertiary tracks. Approximately 5,000 km (about 3106.86 mi) of roads remain passable during the rainy season. Road transport is severely affected during the rainy season, with some parts being completely inaccessible for months. Pre-positioning of supplies by road takes place during the dry season. |
Secondary Road Transport |
Rainy season: May to October Dry season: January to May |
The secondary road network is severely affected during the rainy season roads. Many primary and secondary roads receive little to no maintenance and during the wet season, vehicle traffic quickly destroys submerged and waterlogged roads. |
Rail Transport |
South Sudan has one rail connection, connecting Babanusa (Sudan) with Wau (444 km). This line comprises 248 km of narrow gauge, single-track rail within South Sudan. Rail transport is currently not operational. |
|
Air Transport |
Rainy season: May to October |
Air transport in South Sudan is weather dependent. Helicopter and small aircraft operations are grounded in bad weather. Landing strips are mostly gravel, making large numbers of airstrips unusable by fixed wing planes during the rainy season necessitating the need to revert to helicopters. At smaller airstrips, the proximity of local villages and lack of security makes incursions of people and animals onto airstrips a hazard to aircraft and crew. |
Waterway Transport |
All year on the river Nile. |
South Sudan controls the upper reaches of the Nile, which gives the country 1,400 km of navigable inland waterways. These main waterways remain navigable throughout the year. However, the barges and pushers have had little investment over the past years and are constantly breaking down, making the barge operations unreliable. |
South Sudan has an equatorial climate with high humidity and lots of rainfall. The temperature varies between an average low of 21° C and an average high of 34° C. The country experiences only two seasons. The rainy season varies between May and October, and the dry season varies between January and May. On average, the hottest month is March, and the coolest month is July, with the driest average month being January and the wettest month being August.
During the rainy season, road transport is severely affected as roads become flooded and waterlogged, with large parts of the country becoming inaccessible. The planting and harvest season coincides with the start of the rainy season and the beginning of the dry season. In general, agricultural production during this period does not impact the availability of trucks; however, in smaller locations where there is a general lack of services and service providers, seasonal agricultural practices can affect availability. Pre-positioning of supplies and cargo takes place during the dry season.
Seasonal Effects on Storage and Handling |
||
---|---|---|
Activity Type |
Time Frame |
Comments / Details |
Storage |
Rainy season: May to October Dry season: January to May |
Seasonal flooding and insecurity remain the biggest factors affecting storage facilities. Storage facilities in certain areas are at elevated risk of flooding or of being cut-off because of roads being inaccessible. Storage facilities are at risk of being abandoned and/or looted due to insecurity in some areas, especially in those areas experiencing conflict. |
Handling |
June to February January to August |
Agricultural practices (food production and livestock) are the main livelihood activities and sources of income for most households in non-urban areas. Seasonal planting, harvesting and migratory patterns can result in a reduction of available labour. Insecurity due to historical inter-tribal conflict, armed insurgencies and cattle raiding in areas such as Jonglei and Unity states can result in the large displacement of people and the unavailability of permanent labour. |
Other |
Rainy season: May to October |
In some instances, transporters may refuse to go into areas affected by conflict. During the rainy season, road transporters may refuse to go into certain areas due to an increased risk of accidents or of getting stuck. Local transporters operate without support, and trucks can get stuck for weeks in areas affected by heavy rains. |
Physical access constraints because of perennial flooding, poor road conditions and insecurity remain the biggest factors influencing logistics operations in South Sudan. During the rainy season, 60% of the road network becomes inaccessible. 50% of all counties in 2012 experienced flooding, making moving heavy vehicles difficult. Historically, during the dry season, there is an increase in inter-communal violence and a decrease in the general security situation in certain parts, such as Jonglei. As a result, pre-positioning of stock must be a top priority for any organization during the dry season when the roads remain dry, river levels stable and counties are unaffected by perennial flooding.
Capacity and Contacts for In-Country Emergency Response
GOVERNMENT
The Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs and Disaster Management is mandated to oversee all humanitarian work in South Sudan. In general, the use of military/defense assets in relief operations occurs rarely and, in most occurrences, such assets are utilised on a one time only basis and usually without humanitarian involvement. Close cooperation with military establishments involves the facilitation of access to affected areas in restricted areas.
For more information on government contact details, please see the following link: 4.1 Government Contact List.
HUMANITARIAN COMMUNITY
The current humanitarian structure in South Sudan involves several key agencies and organizations that are actively engaged in addressing the humanitarian needs of the population. These agencies work in collaboration to aid and support across various sectors.
The United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) plays a vital role in coordinating humanitarian efforts in South Sudan. OCHA works closely with other UN agencies, NGOs, and government entities to ensure effective coordination, information sharing, and resource allocation. They provide regular updates and reports on the humanitarian situation in the country, guiding the overall response efforts.
The United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) is one of the major agencies operating in South Sudan. WFP focuses on addressing food insecurity and malnutrition by providing food assistance to vulnerable populations. Their ongoing programs include general food distribution, nutrition support, and school feeding programs, which aim to improve the nutritional status of communities across the country.
The United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) is actively involved in South Sudan, working to protect and promote the rights of children. UNICEF's programs in the country focus on providing access to safe water, sanitation facilities, health services, and education. They also prioritize child protection initiatives, including family tracing and reunification for separated children, and psychosocial support interventions.
Other key agencies and organizations operating in South Sudan include the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF), and the South Sudan Red Cross Society (SSRCS). ICRC provides healthcare services, supports medical facilities, and promotes respect for international humanitarian law. MSF delivers medical assistance, emergency response, and long-term healthcare interventions. The SSRCS plays a vital role in responding to emergencies, providing relief items, and promoting community resilience.
These ongoing programs and initiatives are crucial in addressing the urgent needs of the population in South Sudan, particularly in the areas of food security, healthcare, water and sanitation, education, and protection. The collaborative efforts of these key agencies and organizations are instrumental in mitigating the impact of the ongoing humanitarian crisis in the country.

South Sudan, Republic of - 1.2 Regulatory Departments and Quality Control
South Sudan National Bureau of Standards is responsible for the country’s national infrastructure in terms of standardization, metrology, and accreditation. However, the accreditation body has not been activated. The other stakeholders of the NQI system include various government ministries such as ministries of: Health, Environment and forestry, Livestock and Fisheries, Agriculture and Food Security, Trade and Industry, Transport, Roads and Bridges, Land, Housing and Urban Development, Information and Communication, Energy and Dams and agencies/parastatal bodies such as Drug and Food Control Authority (DFCA), National Communication Authority (NCA), South Sudan Roads Authority (SSRA), South Sudan Urban Water Corporation (SSUWC), South Sudan Electricity Corporation (SSEC) and South Sudan Civil Aviation Authority (CAA).
Responsibility for technical regulation and product certification currently falls under the purview of the SSNBS. SSNBS is responsible for ensuring fairness of trade and the protection of consumers against substandard, shoddy, and hazardous products. SSNBS support for trade includes the development and implementation of standards for various sectors mainly through product conformity assessment (testing, inspections, and certification). Conformity assessment is undertaken by different government agencies. For instance, the inspection of medicines and other regulated products is conducted by the DFCA while NCA conducts the inspection of electronic products, especially telecommunication products.

[Note: This section should contain information on the usual duties & taxes exemption regime during non-emergency times when there is no declared state of emergency and no streamlined process (e.g. regular importations/development/etc.).]
The South Sudan Customs Services exemptions unit handles tax exemptions. UN agencies and NGOs are exempt from import duty, excise duty, vehicles, customs warehouse rent (CWR) and VAT; however, specific exemption procedures must be adhered to by UN agencies or organisations.
Apart from UNMISS and UN agencies, tax exemptions can only be granted to registered taxpayers, and organisations must register for a Tax Identification Number (TIN) at a Directorate of Taxation branch office. A special tax exemption can be granted to non-UN/NGO organisations, but such exemptions are granted on a case basis and only under certain circumstances.
To be granted a tax exemption on imports, organisations must apply for an exemption at the South Sudan Customs Service unit within the Ministry of Finance and Economic Planning (MoFEP) and submit the required documentation related to the cargo. Only the minister of MoFEP can grant tax exemptions.
Once fully processed, an exemption letter will be issued by the South Sudan Customs Service, which will form part of the clearance documents to be presented to customs and border checkpoints.
Organisational Requirements to Obtain Duty Free Status |
---|
United Nations Agencies |
There are no special requirements apart from submitting the necessary application and support documentation. |
Non-Governmental Organizations |
Before being granted tax exemptions, all NGOs must be registered to operate in South Sudan. All NGOs must register for an NGO Operations Certificate with the Relief and Rehabilitation Commission (RRC). NGOs must also register with the Ministry of Legal Affairs and Constitutional Development (MoLaCD), Directorate of Registration of Businesses, Associations and NGOs to obtain a registration certificate. All NGOs must register for a Tax Identification Number (TIN) at any Directorate of Taxation branch office. |

Transit Regime
All transit goods are declared at the point of import and travel under bond where the customs will validate and discharge the documentation and at point of exit from South Sudan. This is a relatively uncomplicated process and works well.
South Sudan, Republic of - 2 Logistics Infrastructure
The logistics infrastructure in South Sudan is in a poor state, with very little yearly maintenance undertaken. Nearly 40 years of conflict, underdevelopment, and virtually no investment have left the country with an ailing road network, limited air and water transport capacity and a large infrastructure gap.
Most roads and main transport corridors within the country comprise gravel roads severely affected by perennial flooding. The Juba to Nimule Road, Juba to Terekeka and Juba to Bor are currently the only sealed corridors connecting the country with neighbouring Uganda and other significant towns in the Country. Little maintenance, low adherence to road rules by road users, and the inability to enforce road weight limits lead to the quick deterioration of roads and bridges.
The country has access to hundreds of airstrips and helicopter landing areas; however, most of these are gravel strips. Encroachment and little to no maintenance create a hazardous flying environment at some airstrips. A limited number of airstrips are accessible by fixed-wing planes throughout the year, with a large number being accessible by helicopter or specialised aircraft (Buffalo) only. During the rainy season, the number of fixed-wing accessible airstrips further decreases. Currently, the country only has access to four asphalt runways in Juba, Paloich Wau and Malakal, and a few gravel strips capable of handling large aircraft. Current plans include the upgrade of Juba International Airport. As Paloich is a privately run airstrip, there are landing fees to be paid before departure, which is also applicable to UN Agencies.
The river Nile waterway network provides transport capacity to various downstream locations year-round. The barges and pushers have a capacity of 1,200mt per set (a set is comprised of 4 barges) but are old and unreliable from suffering from years of low investment. Compounded with security issues on the river, the turnaround times for barge movements from Bor to Malakal can vary from 2 to 6 months. WFP, at present, has a MoU for the cross-border movement of food and NFIs from Sudan into South Sudan using road and barge in the Renk corridor. Ports along the Nile are of poor standard and congested due to the current reliance on force protection for river movements. The River Sobat from Ethiopia is only open for 2-4 months of the year. Insecurity around the river has resulted in this being underutilised.
Mingkaman and Bor's ports are being supported for upgrades only.

South Sudan, Republic of - 2.1 Juba Port Assessment
South Sudan, Republic of - 2.1.1 Port of Total/Malualgurubar
Port Overview
Total/Malualgurubar port is in Bor South Sudan along Juba-Bor highway, it is under the management of WFP and is along the main river (River Nile). Barges and boats are used in this port mainly for loading/offloading of food commodities and NFIs (WFPs/ Logistics cluster).

Port Performance
The port has a well confined docking site for barges and boats however vessels dock at intervals due to insufficient docking area. The channel draft is estimated to 2–3-meter depth and reduces during dry season. Only metallic Barges and Boats of type used in South Sudan and neighbouring countries sharing the river Nile can operate in this port and no other larger vessel with containerized lot. The port is solely used for transportation of humanitarian Cargo mainly WFP food items and Non- Food Items for UN agencies and humanitarian Organizations. The port capacity is limited to loading of one vessel at a time, the port has no handling equipment, and most cargo is handled manually. The port is accessible from the offshoot of Juba-Bor Highway and is located about half kilometre from the highway, the access road is murram and can support the movement of 40Mt truck capacity. The port is located on the main river Nile, and it serves many locations downstream the river Nile and other sub rivers and waterways like zarf, Sobat, and lake Tayar. The loading capacity is about 200-300Mt per day and the lead time is as per size of the vessel.

South Sudan, Republic of - 2.2 Aviation
2.2 South Sudan Aviation
Key airport information may also be found at: http://worldaerodata.com/
- For South SUDAN AIP : https://sscaa.co/
Civil aviation falls under the authority of the Ministry of Transport and South Sudan, which has been a member of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) since 10 November 2011. In 2013, the South Sudan Civil Aviation Authority was established, and this statutory authority aims to formally oversee and regulate the country's aviation industry, airline companies, and operations. South Sudan’s Juba International Airport (JIA) is the only airport receiving flights from international commercial airline carriers. The other significant airports include Wau, Malakal and Rumbek.
The aviation industry is generally characterised by decades of underdevelopment, little investment in infrastructure, low capacity and a poor safety record and adherence to international standards. The country is, however, readily accessible by air as there are hundreds of fixed-wing and helicopter landing sites spread out across the country, of which more than 50 airstrips are serviceable by fixed-wing aircraft. Most of these strips are gravel, however, and only accessible by light aircraft. Only Juba, Paloich, Malakal and Wau airports currently have asphalted runways capable of handling large aircraft.
The availability of fuel, aircraft maintenance facilities and handling services remains an issue, especially in remote areas. A few private sector operators can supply fuel at the various significant airports; however, fuel is imported from neighbouring countries, increasing costs and risking fuel shortages, especially during the rainy season. Basic repairs and maintenance can be conducted in South Sudan; however, significant repairs must be conducted in neighbouring countries or, in some cases, Europe.
More recently, a concerted effort by the government is being made to upgrade existing aviation infrastructure, expand the network, and manage its airspace. The runways of major airports such as Wau and Malakal have been upgraded to asphalt. Recently, there have also been growths in commercial, domestic carriers, air charter and airfreight companies providing reliable service.
For more information on government agency and airport company contact information, please see the following links: 4.1 Government Contact List and 4.5 Airport Companies Contact List.
Procedures for Foreign-Registered Aircraft
In South Sudan, the Civil Aviation Authority is responsible for the registration of foreign aircraft operating within the country. The CAA is currently working on a formal process to register foreign aircraft operating in South Sudan and the current process is largely uncomplicated.
General Aviation:
1) Register for a business license from the Ministry of Justice as per regular business registration procedures. This includes registering for a Tax Identification Number (TIN).
2) Write an application letter, on company letterhead addressed to the Director General of Civil Aviation, expressing the company’s intentions of operating in South Sudan.
3) Attach:
-
- List of aircraft intended to operate in South Sudan, including aircraft details and roles i.e. cargo or passenger aircraft;
- All relevant aircraft documentation such as insurance and most recent maintenance inspection/reviews.
- All relevant pilot documentation such as recent medical certificates and licenses;
- Organizational diagram including maintenance and engineering staff;
- Business and TIN registration documentation.
4) Submit to the Civil Aviation Authority for approval.
The Director of Aviation Safety and flight operations office will review the submitted application and inspect the aircraft and aircrew upon arrival in South Sudan.
- If approved, it will issue a permit to operate in South Sudan.
- If denied, the applying organization will be asked for additional clarification and/or documentation. The CAA could also contact the country of origin for further information.
Humanitarian Aviation:
1) Write an application letter, on organization letter head addressed to Director General of Civil Aviation, expressing the organizations intensions of operating in South Sudan.
2) Attach:
- List of aircraft intended to operate in South Sudan, including aircraft roles i.e., cargo or passenger aircraft.
- All relevant aircraft documentation such as insurance and most recent maintenance inspection/reviews.
- All relevant pilot documentation such as recent medical certificates and licenses.
- Organizational diagram including maintenance and engineering staff;
- Operations certificate, registration certificate, and TIN registration documentation (NGOs Only).
3) Submit to the Civil Aviation Authority for approval.
4) The Director of aviation safety and flight operations office will review documentation and inspect the aircraft and aircrew upon arrival in South Sudan.
- If approved, it will issue a permit to operate in South Sudan.
- If denied, the applying organization will be asked for additional clarification and/or documentation. The CAA could also contact the country of origin.
Other Comments:
- The duration of the operating permit issued by the CAA is limited to the duration of the aircraft insurance.
- The process timeline for registering foreign aircraft is fairly short as the process is relatively uncomplicated.
- Currently, no fees are applicable to register foreign aircraft.
- This registration process is subject to change as the CAA is currently formalising the process of registering foreign aircraft.

South Sudan, Republic of - 2.2.1 Juba International Airport
Juba International Airport is a joint civilian and military airfield with the SPLA, UNMISS, UNHAS and commercial airlines sharing the crowded airport facilities. The airport consists of a single asphalt runway, adjacent apron, terminal and emergency support buildings, control tower and fueling facilities. Apart from the main terminal building servicing all arriving and departing commercial and UNHAS flights, is an additional separate VIP terminal building which receives visiting dignitaries.
New terminal buildings have been under construction for some time; however there are no clear indications on its completion date. UNMISS also have a separate departure and arrival building located within the UNMISS compound with direct access to the airport to facilitate UNMISS flights. Including UNMISS and UNHAS flights, the airport is currently being serviced by an ever growing number of national and international commercial carriers and aircraft charter companies resulting, in an average of 60 ATMs a day. Several international airlines are operating in and out of Juba on a daily basis.
Airport operations in general are constrained by ageing and inadequate infrastructure. The current terminal buildings are small and unable to handle the increasing number of cargo and passengers arriving daily. There is no separate cargo terminal building and cargo is loaded and offloaded in a designated cargo area and transported to the customs warehouse on site for further processing. From July 2014, upgrades started including extension of the airport's runway from 2,400 meters to 3,100 meters, construction of more parking lots, and expansion of immigration offices. This is expected to be largely completed by mid 2016.

Passenger and Cargo Performance Indicator
Current operations at JIA are relatively un-complex compared with other international airports owning to the single runway, small apron, and taxiway and terminal infrastructure size and layout. Operational performance constraints are mainly influenced by the airports ability to handle daily air traffic movements with aircraft separation, available parking space, and subsequent passenger, cargo and aircraft service rates as some of the principal influencing factors.
Current capacity delivers approximately 60 ATMs per day while at periods of high demand this number can exceed 100 ATMs. Currently the airport processes an average of 1300 passengers per day arriving and departing on all international, UNHAS and domestic flights. Whilst only a limited number of aircraft are able to park at any one time, a small arrival’s and departure terminal, and the outdated check-in, customs and immigrations and baggage collection areas further hamper the ability of the airport to process larger numbers of passengers.
Private companies mostly do cargo handling and the airports ability to handle bulk and other air cargo is hampered by the lack of a dedicated cargo terminal, handling equipment and a small customs warehouse. It is difficult to ascertain the total cargo handling figures for JIA. JIA is however the main destination for, and origin of cargo transported by air within South Sudan. The airport has neither a dedicated cargo terminal nor bulk cargo handling facilities.

Security
Airport security is the responsibility of the Civil Aviation Authority. In addition to aviation security personnel, the SSPS, SPLA and other national security agencies also have a presence at the airport.
Perimeter fencing is present, well maintained and surrounds the airport preventing access to the runway and airport grounds. Stringent access control to the main terminal building, departure lounge and administrative buildings is maintained, however the layout of the buildings, increased airport traffic and number of public and passengers needing access to the airport makes access and crowd control difficult.
The vehicle parking and public waiting areas are situated in close proximity to the terminal buildings and although the majority of vehicular traffic is directed to the main open parking area, a large number of vehicles still have access to parking close to the terminal buildings. A small vehicle gate also allows direct access from the parking area to the baggage areas and runway beyond. Access to the airport control tower and airport administration area is also relatively unrestrictive.
Security equipment such as metal detectors and X-ray machines are present, but is frequently broken down. One X-ray machine serving all checked-in baggage on domestic and international flights is currently operational. As a result, airport security personnel also physically examine passengers, baggage and cargo upon entering or exiting the airport. The CAA recently introduced a new ID card system for authorized personnel.

South Sudan, Republic of - 2.3 Road Network
The road network in South Sudan is characterised by limited coverage and capacity, presenting significant challenges for transportation and connectivity. The road infrastructure is underdeveloped, lacking paved roads and inadequate maintenance. The road network primarily consists of unpaved and poorly maintained roads, making transportation difficult, especially during the rainy season when many roads become impassable.
Coverage of the road network is limited, particularly in remote and rural areas. Primary roads connect significant towns and cities, but access to rural communities is often limited or non-existent. This hampers economic development, access to essential services, and the movement of goods and people across the country.
One of the significant challenges facing the road network in South Sudan is the lack of investment in infrastructure development and maintenance. Limited financial resources have resulted in inadequate road maintenance, leading to further deterioration of the existing roads. This, coupled with the country's harsh climate and topography, exacerbates the challenges of maintaining the road network.
To address these challenges, the government of South Sudan has initiated national development and investment programs to improve the road network. These programs aim to expand road coverage, rehabilitate existing roads, and construct new infrastructure. The government has sought partnerships with international organisations and donor agencies to secure funding for these projects.
Despite these efforts, significant obstacles and bottlenecks remain. Insecurity and conflicts in certain regions of the country pose challenges to the implementation of road projects. Additionally, the vastness of the country and the need for extensive road construction present logistical and financial challenges.
In terms of maintenance, the government is working towards establishing sustainable maintenance programs. This includes training local personnel for road maintenance activities and procuring necessary equipment. However, a lack of resources and technical expertise remains a hurdle to effective maintenance.

Road Security
The road security situation in South Sudan remains a significant concern, posing numerous challenges and risks for pedestrians and motorists. The country's road infrastructure is relatively underdeveloped, with poorly maintained and inadequate roads exacerbating security issues. One of the primary areas of issue is the prevalence of armed conflicts and intercommunal violence, which directly impacts road safety.
In many regions of South Sudan, armed groups operate along major highways, leading to frequent road blockades, ambushes, and vehicle attacks. These incidents not only endanger travellers' lives but also impede the flow of goods and humanitarian aid across the country. Moreover, the presence of landmines and unexploded ordnance from past conflicts further adds to the risks faced by road users.
Another significant issue is the lack of law enforcement and traffic management systems. The scarcity of well-trained and equipped police forces hampers their ability to patrol and regulate traffic effectively. This absence of proper enforcement allows for reckless driving behaviours, such as speeding, drunk driving, and vehicle overloading, which contribute to a high rate of accidents and fatalities on South Sudan's roads.
Additionally, the absence of proper lighting, signage, and road markings poses a significant hazard, especially during night-time travel. The lack of streetlights and reflective materials increases the chances of accidents and makes navigation more difficult. Furthermore, the inadequate communication infrastructure hampers emergency response systems, making it challenging to provide timely assistance to road accident victims.
Addressing these road security issues in South Sudan requires a comprehensive approach that includes investing in road infrastructure development, enhancing law enforcement capabilities, demining efforts, and promoting road safety awareness among the population. Only through concerted efforts and collaboration between the government, international organisations, and local communities can South Sudan make significant progress in ensuring safer roads for its citizens.
Weighbridges and Axle Load Limits
Currently, there are no weighbridges in the country and low capacity to enforce axle load limits.
South Sudan is adjusting to the regional axle load limits set through the Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa (COMESA) and East African Community (EAC) requirements, which is currently set at a maximum of 56 tonnes with a 0% weighbridge allowance. These requirements permit some of the highest Gross Vehicle Mass limits in the world; however, countries in the region apply these load limits differently, so vehicles travelling through the region to South Sudan will be subject to compliance with the lowest axle load limit. Note that traffic from Ethiopia into Upper Nile State can move payloads of 45MT per truck.

South Sudan, Republic of - 2.4 Railway Assessment
South Sudan, Republic of - 2.5 Waterways Assessment
A large section of the White Nile flows through South Sudan and the country have access to approximately 1400km of navigational waterways stretching from Juba in the south, to Kosti in North Sudan, and from Bentui in the west to Akobo on the Ethiopian border to the east. The river is accessible throughout the year, and during the rainy season the Nile is the only reliable transport link between the southern, central and northern areas of the country. Many of the rivers tributaries are also navigable, however these are only considered passable during the rainy reason.
Although navigational throughout the year, water levels fluctuate during the rainy and dry seasons. In some areas this results in the reduced cargo carrying capacity of barges with barge operators loading vessels according to seasonal draft and clearance requirements. Standard barges take around 400mt but at times during the dry season and in some sections such as between Juba-Bor, the river is only navigable with 300mt. Various barge operators and powerboat owner-operators provide transport services along the length of the river, with the major ports of Mangalla, Bor, Shambe, Adok, Malakal and Renk easily accessible. The majority of river ports are nothing more than an easily accessible riverbank from which porters can load and offload cargo. Loading and offloading facilities, including access to equipment remain problematic.
Passenger transport along the river has not been fully developed. There are no dedicated passenger barges operating along the river and passenger transport is mostly done through powerboats, and allocated space on cargo barges. The development of infrastructure along the river has in recent times largely been the domain of private operators and other commercial companies who have constructed, or are in the planning phases, of constructing their own supply bases with direct access to the water with dedicated equipment and storage solutions.
Company Information
Historically barge and boat operations were characterized by state run agencies managed by Sudan. The largest barge companies currently operating on South Sudan waterways are MINCO Limited, Nile Barges for River Transport Co, Keer Marine Co and the South Sudan Trans Nile Company.

An additional docking area is available a short distance upstream and WFP also have a floating jetty adjacent to its warehouses approximately 11km up stream. There are no warehousing or cargo handling equipment available on site and mobile cranes have to be hired in. |
Malakal Port has a concrete pier of approx. 300 m in length. Porters unload barges but mobile cranes are available from private operators. The porters are organized and unloading/loading fees must be negotiated. Fuel is available at the port from commercial suppliers. Malakal is an important port due to its geographical location. Humanitarian goods offloaded at Malakal can be transshipped at onto smaller vessels, which can then use the White Nile tributaries to reach points east and west of the main river.

South Sudan, Republic of - 2.6 Storage Assessment
Storage facilities in South Sudan play a vital role in various sectors, including agriculture, manufacturing, and logistics. However, the country faces several challenges regarding storage capacity and infrastructure.
Current Capacity and Bottlenecks: South Sudan's storage capacity is often inadequate to meet the current needs of the population. Insufficient storage facilities can result in post-harvest losses in the agricultural sector and difficulties in storing goods for longer periods. The lack of proper storage infrastructure also affects the availability and affordability of essential commodities for the population.
One key bottleneck is the limited availability of cold storage facilities, which impacts the storage of perishable goods such as fruits, vegetables, and dairy products. This constraint hinders the development of value chains for these products and limits their market reach.
National Storage Infrastructure: South Sudan's national storage infrastructure is still in the early stages of development. The country lacks a well-established and reliable network of warehouses, silos, and cold storage facilities. This poses significant challenges for businesses and farmers in safely storing their products and preventing spoilage.
Accessibility and Reliability: Reliable storage facilities in South Sudan can be difficult to locate, especially in remote or rural areas. Lack of proper infrastructure, including roads and transportation systems, hampers the efficient movement of goods to and from storage facilities. This can result in delays and added costs for businesses and farmers.
Additionally, the limited availability of electricity and unreliable power supply further complicates the storage situation. Proper temperature control, especially for perishable goods, becomes challenging without consistent and reliable electricity.
Efforts are being made to address these challenges and improve storage infrastructure in South Sudan. The government and international organizations are investing in the construction and rehabilitation of storage facilities, including warehouses and silos. However, more must be done to expand storage capacity and enhance accessibility, particularly in rural areas, to support the country's economic development and food security goals.
For more information on storage company contact details, please see the following link: 4.6 Storage and Milling Companies Contact List.
Commercial Storage
There is a lack of permanent storage capacity in South Sudan, and most storage solutions are provided through temporary and mobile storage units. The humanitarian community constitutes the largest sector with available warehouse space, and most organisations have storage facilities in Juba and most other major towns.
The commercial sector has taken advantage of this gap, and an ever-growing number of warehouses are present in major towns. Cold Chain remains problematic, with the capital outlay and risks associated with such endeavours limiting growth in this sector. Several commercial operators, however, are currently developing their capacity to provide a complete cold chain solution.

Storage Used by Humanitarian Organizations
All major humanitarian organisations have access to storage facilities, and warehouse management is mostly conducted in-house. Many organisations also make use of commercial storage. In smaller locations and where the presence and size of humanitarian actors vary, it is common for organisations to share storage space. Sometimes, smaller organisations rely almost entirely on other organisations for storage.
Through the common storage service, the Logistics Cluster has access to more than 6,700m2 of warehouse space in more than 19 locations nationwide. This storage space is made available to the humanitarian community to augment their current capacity or to serve as dedicated storage space on a short-term basis.

Public Sector Storage
The government has access to several warehouse facilities however these facilities are not readily made available to the humanitarian community. In some instances, the government can provide or allocate storage space to the humanitarian community; however, access to this space needs to be negotiated directly with the relevant line ministry. Additional storage space can also be negotiated for through the Relief and Rehabilitation Commission for those organisations involved in emergency response.

South Sudan, Republic of - 2.7 Milling Assessment
There are no large-scale milling operations currently active in South Sudan, and the industry is characterised by small-scale owner-operators utilising small-capacity milling machinery. Milling facilities are available in major towns and villages. Still, these machines are privately owned, and milling rates are negotiated on a case-by-case basis, with market prices fluctuating depending on the exchange rate. The average capacity of available milling machines ranges from 100kg to 450kg per hour. For large-scale milling operations, it is more cost-effective to Mill in neighbouring countries such as Kenya and Uganda, where large-scale milling facilities are available.
For more information on milling company contact details, please see the following link: 4.6 Storage and Milling Companies Contact List.
South Sudan, Republic of - 3 Logistics Services
Since independence the market of service providers have expanded exponentially with both national and international companies providing a host of support services. As in other business sectors, domestic operators and service providers have also seen significant growth and the government is actively encouraging the development of local ownership. However the growth in this sector and the quality of the services provided is constrained by a shortage of specialised skills in the local labour market and the perceived difficulty of doing business in South Sudan.

South Sudan, Republic of - 3.1 Fuel
Fuel Overview
Fuel provision in South Sudan faces significant challenges in terms of supply and storage. The country heavily relies on imported petroleum products due to limited domestic refining capacity. Logistical constraints, including inadequate infrastructure, insecurity, and political instability, often disrupt supply chains. This results in frequent fuel shortages and price fluctuations. Moreover, storage facilities are insufficient and poorly maintained, leading to limited capacity and potential fuel quality issues. These challenges highlight the need for investment in infrastructure development, efficient supply management, and strategic storage facilities to ensure a more reliable and sustainable fuel provision system in South Sudan.
Both government distributors and private companies provide fuel in South Sudan. The national oil company, Nile Petroleum Corporation (Nilepet), plays a significant role in fuel provision as the main government distributor. It has a monopoly over oil exploration, production, and distribution in the country. Additionally, there are several private companies involved in the fuel sector, including Trinity Energy, Petronas, and Sahara Energy, which import and distribute petroleum products. These private companies operate through partnerships with international oil companies and contribute to the overall fuel supply in South Sudan. However, the sector is still evolving, and efforts are being made to promote competition, attract investment, and improve the efficiency of fuel supply and distribution in the country.
Fuel supply in South Sudan has been a significant challenge, both currently and historically. South Sudan heavily depends on fuel imports due to limited internal production capacity. Most fuel arrives from neighbouring countries such as Sudan, Uganda, and Kenya. However, political instability, conflicts, and logistical constraints have often disrupted fuel supply chains, causing shortages and price fluctuations. Internal production has been hampered by infrastructure constraints, lack of investment, and technical expertise. The country's landlocked geography further complicates fuel transportation, increasing costs and vulnerability to disruptions. These fuel supply issues have had adverse effects on various sectors of the economy, including transportation, agriculture, and power generation, impacting the livelihoods of the population.
For more information on government and fuel provider contact details, please see the following links: 4.1 Government Contact List and 4.7 Fuel Providers Contact List.
Information may also be found at: http://www.mytravelcost.com/petrol-prices/ which is updated monthly.
Fuel Pricing
The fuel price in South Sudan is determined by various factors, including international crude oil prices, transportation costs, taxes, and government policies. The government heavily regulates the fuel sector and sets the retail price through the Ministry of Petroleum and Mining. The pricing formula considers the cost of importing or refining fuel, transportation costs, distribution margins, and taxes.
Government policies and taxes play a significant role in fuel pricing in South Sudan. The government imposes a fuel tax, a percentage of the retail price, to generate revenue. Additionally, there may be other levies and fees imposed by the government, such as customs duties and fuel subsidies. These policies and taxes influence the final fuel price and can lead to price fluctuations.
It is worth noting that the government has sometimes intervened to stabilize fuel prices during times of crisis or to mitigate social unrest. However, these interventions may have unintended consequences and can strain the fiscal resources of the government. Overall, government policies and taxes have a direct impact on the pricing of fuel in South Sudan, and any changes in these policies can have significant implications for the fuel market and the economy.
Seasonal Variations
Yes, there are seasonal variations in fuel supply and management in South Sudan. During the rainy season, which typically lasts from May to November, the transportation infrastructure becomes more challenging due to flooded roads and impassable routes. This can disrupt the supply chain and hinder fuel delivery to various regions of the country. Additionally, agricultural activities such as harvesting and transporting crops during certain seasons may increase the demand for fuel, putting additional strain on the already limited supply. To manage these seasonal variations, the government and fuel suppliers often need to plan, stockpile fuel, and ensure alternative transportation methods are in place to address the logistical challenges during the rainy season.
Seasonal Variations |
|
---|---|
Are there national priorities in the availability of fuel? (i.e. are there restrictions or priorities for the provision of fuel such as to the military?) |
No |
Is there a rationing system? |
No |
Is fuel to lower income / vulnerable groups subsidized? |
No |
Can the local industry expand fuel supply to meet humanitarian needs? |
Yes, However, a sudden and prolonged surge in demand would be problematic and given the length of the supply chain. It is highly unlikely that South Sudanese fuel suppliers would be able to meet the surge in demand for extended periods of time. |
Is it possible for a humanitarian organization to directly contract a reputable supplier / distributor to provide its fuel needs? |
Yes, various suppliers with direct access to fuel refineries is operating within South Sudan. |
Fuel Transportation
The internal fuel transport in South Sudan is primarily carried out through road and river transportation. Fuel is transported in tanker trucks over long distances to various regions of the country, and in some cases, it is transported via river barges. However, there are significant constraints and bottlenecks that exist in the internal transport of fuel. The country's infrastructure, including roads and bridges, is often inadequate and poorly maintained, making transportation challenging and prone to delays. This, coupled with security concerns and the seasonal variations in road conditions, hampers the efficient and timely delivery of fuel. Moreover, the limited capacity of storage facilities and the lack of strategic reserves further exacerbate the challenges in meeting local fuel needs and potential increases in demand from the humanitarian community. Addressing these constraints and investing in infrastructure development would be crucial to improving the internal transport of fuel and ensuring a reliable supply to meet both local and humanitarian demands in South Sudan.
Standards, Quality and Testing
In South Sudan, ensuring fuel quality standards and enforcing them is an important aspect of the fuel sector. The Ministry of Petroleum and Mining is responsible for setting and monitoring these standards to ensure that the fuel being supplied meets the required specifications. These standards typically cover parameters such as octane or cetane rating, sulfur content, density, and other quality indicators. The ministry collaborates with relevant stakeholders, including fuel suppliers and importers, to ensure compliance with these standards.
As for enforcing fuel quality standards, the government conducts inspections and monitoring activities to verify the quality of fuel sold in the market. This includes conducting random sampling and testing fuel samples to check if they meet the prescribed standards. If any deviations or violations are found, appropriate actions may be taken, such as fines, penalties, or even suspensions.
Regarding national testing laboratories, South Sudan faces challenges establishing and maintaining such facilities. While efforts have been made in the past to set up national testing laboratories, the progress has been limited. As a result, the country often relies on external laboratories or regional testing facilities to carry out the necessary fuel quality testing. Establishing a well-equipped national testing laboratory would be beneficial in ensuring more efficient and timely monitoring and enforcement of fuel quality standards in South Sudan.
Industry Control Measures |
|

No, only major fuel suppliers have adequate protection. |
Is there a presence of suitable firefighting equipment? |
Yes, only large suppliers can realistically provide acceptable fire fighting systems and adhere to international standards. |

South Sudan, Republic of - 3.2 Transporters
The demand for road freight transport has grown significantly since independence. The result is that many local and foreign-owned transport providers have entered the market with various capacities and services to offer. This sector is characterized by small to medium-sized vehicle fleets and vehicles of differing capacities and maintenance levels. Larger transport providers can offer full transport services and operate in neighbouring countries.
In general, road freight transport companies range from small to medium-sized operations with access to additional fleet capacity through owner-operator vehicles. Most operators can operate throughout the country; however, in some instances, such as during the rainy season or in areas posing a potential security risk, the transporter can refuse to travel or increase transport costs.
The road freight transport sector can meet the current demand of the humanitarian community, and foreign operators are allowed to operate domestically on the condition that companies are registered. As with other business sectors, the government actively encourages local development and ownership and, in some instances, requires local shareholders in foreign-owned companies.

South Sudan, Republic of - 3.3 Manual Labor Costs
In South Sudan, manual labor plays a significant role in various sectors of the economy, including agriculture, construction, and informal industries. However, the country lacks comprehensive national legislation specifically addressing manual labor. The labor laws that do exist primarily focus on broader labor rights and protections.
Trade unions exist in South Sudan, but their influence and impact on manual labor are limited. The trade union movement is still in its early stages of development, and there are challenges in organizing and representing workers effectively.
The availability of manual labor in South Sudan is relatively high, given the country's youthful population and limited job opportunities in other sectors. Many individuals rely on manual labor as a means of livelihood. However, issues such as low wages, lack of job security, and poor working conditions are common challenges workers face in manual, labor-intensive sectors.
Rates vary currently with the fluctuating exchange rate.
It is important to consult current sources and labour-related legislation in South Sudan to obtain the most accurate and up-to-date information on the usage of manual labour, national legislation, the role of unions, cost incentives, common areas of work, and the issues faced by organizations in the country.

Mobile Network Operators (MNOs)
Mobile networks have significantly expanded their coverage and reliability in South Sudan over the years, improving access to communication and connectivity for the population. However, challenges remain due to the country's vast geography, limited infrastructure, and ongoing conflict. While major mobile network operators operate in South Sudan, coverage can be uneven, particularly in remote and conflict-affected areas.
Companies such as MTN South Sudan, Zain South Sudan, and Digital South Sudan dominate the mobile network market in the country. These operators have made substantial investments in expanding their network infrastructure and improving service quality. However, due to the challenging operating environment, including frequent power outages and limited maintenance capacity, network reliability can vary.
In terms of regulatory requirements affecting the use of mobile money at scale, the Central Bank of South Sudan has established guidelines and regulations to ensure the security, stability, and proper functioning of mobile financial services. These regulations include Know Your Customer (KYC) requirements, transaction limits, and safeguards against money laundering and terrorist financing.
Furthermore, the Central Bank of South Sudan closely monitors and regulates mobile money operators to protect consumer interests and maintain financial stability. This includes licensing requirements, reporting obligations, and regular audits of mobile money platforms.

South Sudan, Republic of - 3.5 Food and Additional Suppliers
Overview
There are no established suppliers for food (Maize, CSB, Pulses, Sugar, Oil or RTE (Ready to Eat) produced in South Sudan. Most locally produced foodstuffs are available in local markets or transported to larger markets in urban areas. Most foods are imported from neighbouring countries Uganda and Kenya.
WFP’s 'P4P' unit has started to establish business relationship with a selection of farmers’ organisations and cooperatives in Western and Central Equatoria with the aim of stimulating local production and making surplus food available to the wider market.
Operational support items such as water tanks, generators tents and basic IT equipment are readily available in major market centres around the country, however specialised items would need to be imported from neighbouring countries.
Generic country information can be located from sources which are regularly maintained and reflect current facts and figures. For a general overview of country data related to the service and supply sectors, please consult to following sources:

3.6 South Sudan Additional Service Providers
South Sudan Additional Service Providers: Vehicle Rental, Taxi Companies, Freight Forwarding Agents, Handling Equipment, Power Generation and ISPs
Since independence the market of service providers have expanded exponentially with both national and international companies providing a host of support services. As in other business sectors, domestic operators and service providers have also seen significant growth and the government is actively encouraging the development of local ownership. However the growth in this sector and the quality of the services provided is constrained by a shortage of specialised skills in the local labour market and the perceived difficulty of doing business in South Sudan.
Vehicle Rental
Various vehicle rental companies are present in South Sudan with a wide selection of vehicles available for hire. The vast majority of such companies however have small vehicle fleets with varying capacities and vehicles maintained to questionable standards. No large international vehicle rental companies are present in South Sudan and organisations looking to augment their vehicle fleet will need to negotiate directly with vehicle owners.
Taxi Companies
The taxi industry is unregulated and characterised by privately owner-operated vehicles and motorbikes. There are a number of larger locally owned taxi operators however travel rates vary and needs to be negotiated for. Travel by motorbike or ‘boda-boda’ is readily available and at a relatively low cost, however at significant risk due to prevailing road conditions. In general the use of locally available taxi’s and motorbikes is reliable; however it does pose some personal security risk to travellers. As no taxi operators have ‘passenger liability’ insurance. Hence, it is advisable that international travellers include this in any travel insurance.
Freight Forwarding Agents
A number of freight forwarding companies and brokers with varying capacities are operational in South Sudan. The larger operators have good contacts within relevant government departments and access to a variety of logistical services including air, water and land transport providers making their services relatively reliable. The majority of freight forwarding agents are situated in Juba with a smaller number located in other major towns.
Handling Equipment
Handling equipment can be rented from local commercial companies
or acquired in the market. Most specialised equipment need to be
imported from neighbouring countries however.
Non-standardised pallets can be manufactured in the local market,
in general however all wooden and plastic pallets are imported.
Electricity and Power
The Ministry of Energy and Dams is responsible for the
development of the country’s electricity infrastructure. In 2012,
the ministry established the South Sudan Electricity Corporation
(SSEC), which oversees the generation, transmission, distribution
and sale of electricity within the country, and most of the state
capitals now have some electrical power, commonly referred to as
‘City power’. The in-country power-generating infrastructure
consists of large diesel operated power plants and distribution
systems. However, the electrical power coverage is limited to these
urban areas and prioritized for local administration/government and
local hospitals, as the power grid is severely limited. The
electricity supply in South Sudan is only partially accessible in
certain areas and in these areas the supply is often erratic, and
characterised by frequent power outages due to broken power units,
or more commonly, a lack of fuel.
The most recently commissioned power plants and electrical
distribution systems are situated in Juba, Malakal, Wau, Bor,
Yambio, Rumbek and Renk. The power production plant for Juba has
been greatly improved in terms of efficiency but still coverage of
the town is limited. Malakal has good coverage through large
functioning diesel generators. Considering that power generation is
largely unreliable and inconsistent it is essential that major
organizations have their own power generating capacity and back-up
units. Small to large portable generators are readily available in
local markets. In 2012, the country had approximately 33MW of
installed generating capacity with partial access mainly to the
towns Juba, Malakal and Wau.
In 2012, the Government entered into an agreement with the
government of Ethiopia to import electricity into the country. The
agreement called for the installation of a 230 KV transmission line
from Gambela and a 500 KV transmission line from the Grand
Renaissance Dam in Ethiopia to South Sudan. The agreement is to
come into affect upon the completion of the dam.

Internet Service Providers (ISPs)
South Sudan is one of the most expensive countries in Africa in
terms of Internet usage, with an average retail cost of USD$ 4,000
per megabit via satellite. All licenced service providers use
satellite-based V-Sat and WiMax technology as the country has no
established fibre optics network, nor is it directly connected to
East Africa’s internet fibre-optic networks serviced by The East
African Marine Systems (TEAMS), Eastern Africa Submarine Cable
System (EASSy) and SEACOM providers.
The Ministry of Telecommunication and Postal Services (MOTPS) plays
an oversight function and is in charge of regulating and licencing
of local telecommunications companies. Currently telecommunications
regulations are set to change with the adoption of new regulations
in late 2013.Currently there are no national carrier in South
Sudan, however the Council of Ministers approved the establishment
of a national telecommunications operator in May 2013. In late
2012, the country had five licensed Internet Service Providers and
this number continues to grow with an estimated 15 ISPs currently
in various stages of operation.

South Sudan, Republic of - 3.7 Waste Management Infrastructure Assessment
Overview
Waste Collection: South Sudan has poor waste collection ratios due to the lack of an integrated solid waste management system. Case in point, only 2.6% (34.3 tons) of 1, 337 tons of solid waste generated in Juba per day is collected (JICA, 2018). In urban areas such as Juba, waste is typically collected by municipal authorities or private companies by use of trucks. However, coverage and frequency of waste collection in urban centres is still inadequate due to limited infrastructure and resources, leading to uncollected waste and improper disposal. In rural areas, waste collection systems are generally lacking, and waste is often disposed of indiscriminately in open ground.
Regulations and Government Bodies: The Ministry of Environment and Forestry is the main government body responsible for Solid waste management. The ministry implements waste management activities in the country in coordination with municipal authorities such as the Juba City Council. The “Environmental Management Act of 2012” is the primary legislation governing environmental protection, including waste management Additional regulations include The National Environmental Policy (2015-2025); provides a framework that ensures protection and conservation of the environment and sustainable management of renewable natural resources.
National policy on medical waste management (2011); provides guidance on medical waste management in South Sudan and is actioned by the national medical waste management plan.
Juba City Council by-laws (2013); waste management in the Juba City by-laws is covered under Chapter 3 “Cleaning of Juba City Council”.
Rejaf County By-laws, 2016-2017; waste management in the Rejaf by-laws is covered in clauses 5 and 6 of Chapter 1.
However, it is essential to note that the enforcement and implementation of these regulations face challenges due to limited resources and capacity.
Service Providers: Waste management services in South Sudan are primarily provided by the government and some private companies. City Council authorities are responsible for waste collection in urban areas, although the coverage and quality of services may vary. Private companies also play a role in waste collection, particularly in larger cities; a survey done by JICA established there were 16 registered private waste collection actors in Juba in 2018 (JICA, 2018, p. 21). However, the overall capacity and efficiency of waste management services in the country are limited; this is evident in Juba City Council where only 10 of the registered private actors were operational and all 10 solid waste collection trucks owned by the council had broken down by the time of the survey.However, the overall capacity and efficiency of waste management services in the country are limited; this is evident in Juba City Council where only 10 of the registered private actors were operational and all 10 solid waste collection trucks owned by the council had broken down by the time of the survey.
Landfills: Management of landfills is primarily the responsibility of local authorities, although they lack adequate capacity and resources for proper landfill maintenance. There is no actual data on the number and status of landfills in the country. Many areas rely on open dumping or operate illegal dumping sites without adhering to statutory requirements for example, Juba-Nimule Road has a roadside illegal dumping site that receives up to 8.6 tons of solid waste per day (JICA, 2018).
Existing few legally controlled dump sites remain dilapidated, for example, the perimeter fence at the Juba controlled dump site was vandalized, hence allowing access to hostile waste pickers who openly burn waste and pose a security threat to drivers. In addition, frequent breakdown of bulldozers leads to foul smells from the landfills due to delayed burying of waste.
Recycling Programs: Recycling programs in South Sudan are still in their early stages of development. While there are some private initiatives and small-scale recycling efforts, the overall recycling infrastructure is limited. In addition, the lack of a sustainable financing mechanism has led to the collapse of recycling initiatives led by local innovators.
Challenges: Institutional, social, economic, and technical factors contribute to ineffective solid waste management in South Sudan.
Institutional: Bureaucracy in approval of draft policies and laws regarding solid waste management. Most of these bills get stuck in the draft phase, hence hindering the provision of an adequate framework for the implementation of integrated solid waste management. Political instability also continues to affect the implementation of solid waste management initiatives as most interested private sector partners would fear for their individual safety.
Social: Household waste is not collected at source due to the lack of an integrated solid waste management system, hence most citizens typically dump waste on open ground or by the roadside due to a lack of awareness. This culture is ingrained in residents and contributes to a littered environment.
Economic: Ineffective coordination in financing and accounting. Waste management in Juba is coordinated by the Juba City Council but is broken down into 4 zones to ease service delivery. All four zones have independent accounting systems and act autonomously to each other and to the Department of Environment and Sanitation in the Juba City Council account. Such working arrangements hinder the efficient coordination of solid waste management initiatives.
Technical: Lack of enough expertise to repair specialized vehicles such as compactors causes periodic grounding of the few available solid waste collection fleets reducing service efficiency; spare parts for such vehicles are also not readily available within the local market. The density of paved roads in South Sudan is about 0.2 km for every 1000km2, hence most roads in between homes are muddy especially during the rainy season making it difficult for the fleet to approach waste collection (AFDB).
For more information on waste management company contact details, please see the following link: 4.12 Waste Management Companies Contact List.
Hazardous Waste Disposal
The availability of proper disposal options for hazardous waste in South Sudan is limited, posing significant challenges to the environment and public health. Hazardous waste, including e-waste, medical waste, appliances, air conditioners, refrigerators, oils, petrol, and lubricants, requires specialized handling and disposal due to its potential to harm human health and the environment.
Currently, South Sudan lacks a comprehensive system for safely disposing of hazardous waste. There is a lack of dedicated facilities and infrastructure to handle and treat such waste effectively. As a result, hazardous waste is often disposed of improperly, such as open burning or dumping, which can release harmful substances into the air, soil, and water sources.
The absence of specific regulations and guidelines for managing hazardous waste exacerbates the problem. South Sudan needs to develop and enforce legislation that addresses the proper handling, storage, transportation, treatment, and disposal of hazardous waste. This would involve establishing designated collection points, recycling facilities, and treatment plants to dispose of different types of hazardous waste safely.
Efforts should also focus on raising awareness among the public and industries about the risks associated with improper disposal of hazardous waste and promoting responsible waste management practices. International partnerships and support can be crucial in providing technical expertise, funding, and capacity-building initiatives to help South Sudan develop a robust and sustainable system for hazardous waste management and disposal.
For more information on waste types, please refer to the WREC project.
Non-Hazardous Waste Disposal
The availability of proper disposal options for non-hazardous waste, such as regular trash from camps or compounds, is also limited in South Sudan. The country faces challenges in waste management infrastructure and resources, which affects the proper disposal of non-hazardous waste.
In many areas, non-hazardous waste is often disposed of through open dumping or burning, leading to environmental pollution and health risks. Municipal/City council authorities and private companies involved in waste management may provide some collection services in urban areas, but the coverage and frequency of waste collection may be inadequate.
Regarding wastewater disposal, South Sudan faces challenges in managing black water (from toilets) and grey water (from sinks, showers, and laundry). The lack of proper sewage systems and treatment facilities results in the discharge of untreated wastewater into rivers, streams, or open areas. This can lead to contamination of water sources and the spread of waterborne diseases.
To improve the disposal of non-hazardous waste and wastewater in South Sudan, there is a need for investment in waste management infrastructure, including waste collection systems, treatment facilities, and proper sewage systems. Government support and regulations are necessary to promote responsible waste disposal practices, and public awareness campaigns can help educate the population about the importance of proper waste management and the potential environmental and health impacts of improper disposal.
