National Cleaning Day: A call to action for a cleaner and healthier, South Sudan

By Ajak John Ateng

Every great nation is built not only through economic growth and infrastructure but also through everyday actions of its citizens. Among these, maintaining a clean and healthy environment stands as one of the simplest yet most powerful expressions of patriotism and civic responsibility.

As South Sudan looks toward a future of peace, prosperity, and sustainable development, introducing a National Cleaning Day would represent a meaningful national commitment to protecting the environment and improving the quality of life for every citizen.

Appreciation to the Ministry of Mining, Republic of South Sudan

The Geological Society of South Sudan (GEO-SSS) extends its sincere appreciation to the Hon. Minister of Mining, Hon. Losuba Ludoru Wongo., the Undersecretary, Deng Makuok Duyak, Director Generals, Directors and the entire leadership of the Ministry of Mining for their commitment to strengthening the governance of the mining sector through constructive engagement on the Artisanal and Small-Scale Mining (ASM) Strategic Plan.

We applaud the Ministry for listening to the concerns and recommendations of stakeholders regarding the need to strengthen regulatory governance of artisanal and small-scale mining in South Sudan. We are particularly encouraged by the Ministry's commitment to reaching grassroots communities to raise awareness of mining laws, promote responsible mining practices, and encourage compliance with national regulations.

Effective implementation of mining legislation requires strong coordination between the National Ministry of Mining and the State Ministries responsible for mining. Both levels of government should work in close partnership and remain aligned in the interpretation and enforcement of mining regulations. State Ministries have a vital role to play as the first line of oversight, monitoring mining activities, preventing environmental degradation, discouraging the use of hazardous chemicals such as mercury and cyanide and ensuring that artisanal mining is conducted in a safe, responsible, and environmentally sustainable manner.

The Geological Society of South Sudan believes that a well-regulated artisanal mining sector will not only protect communities and the environment but will also enhance investor confidence, improve government revenue, and contribute to sustainable national development.

As a professional scientific organization, the Geological Society of South Sudan reaffirms its readiness to collaborate with the Ministry of Mining by providing technical expertise, geoscientific advice, public awareness programs, professional training, and community outreach initiatives that promote responsible mineral resource development.
