Prevent HIV-AIDS through Awareness in South Sudan

HIV-AID: Is killer number in Africa! A worse enemy in South Sudan!

In this year, our strategy was to launch a hardest campaign against this an incurable virus, but the civil war in a country since 2013 to 2017 had hindered our operations. 

Due to famine, war, inflation, and HIV-AID – these factors make it nearly impossible to live in South Sudan both for persons and animals. The war had worsened in recent months which mean an outside help is needed for peace to be restored. Because of instability, cost of living had risen and most cannot afford including public servants. I better to go to prison than to live in Juba, a South Sudanese refugee said.

 At this reporting:
The plan for 2017: It was intended that 24 local HIV-AIDs workshops will be launched. Because of insecurity, only three local workshops was operated. It was not well organized and the attendance was low. Most villagers had fled into exile. A new workshop is underway this November. It will take place only if the security on the ground allows it.

The villagers are eager to see this need to continue to raise HIV-AID so more lives can be safe. To keep operating, HopeOfiriha needs your help as always.

In the next coming months, we will send you a new field update report, to inform you about the impact support, and the positive changes you and others in making in the lives of villagers in rural South Sudan.

Army attack prompts mass exodus from Magwi County South Sudan.
Regime troops - slaughter, and burned life people like mammals as thousands flee during an attacked in Pajok. Over 6,000 people have fled into Uganda from South Sudan in this single operation. More civilians are still hiding in the bush trying to reach Lamwo district of Uganda.

At this second reporting in 2017:
The civil conflict is hampering the advancement of HIV-AIDs Awareness raising.Our volunteers are facing inconveniences on the ground due to accelerating war.

In recent months, the clashes had intensified between the regime and insurgent forces in Magwi County which is a key danger to the lives of our workforce and the citizens. Thus, HOPE OFIRIHA had suspended the running of this activity due to security distress. When uncertainty improves we will restart campaign instantly.

We are projecting to operate 12 local workshops in 2017. With your funding, we had prepared the materials and places where this will take place in a near future.

At the next reporting, we will send you field update to tell about the impact of your contribution in lives of people and security concern from the ground.
