Abstract: 

Civil war has been raging in South Sudan for just over a year. As a result, it's expected that 6.4 million people will have been affected by the food crisis within the first three months of this year. Some 235,000 children are currently suffering from severe malnutrition.
Donor support
Thanks to the support of our donors, Concern Worldwide has been on the ground day-after-day distributing life-saving emergency food and other essential supplies. We're also constructing communal shelters, building latrines and distributing tarpaulin to protect families from torrential rains.
