Hello from Kaya town. Over the past 3 days, we have held an intensive capacity-building training for Immigration Officers at the Kaya border post in Morobo County, Central Equatoria State, on the border with Uganda. This activity aims to strengthen immigration officers' institutional capacity, improve transparency and responsive access to information for citizens and migrants, and enhance strong relationships and social cohesion between migrants and host communities to support human rights in South Sudan. This workshop is part of our project "Strengthening Migration Management in South Sudan in partnership with the Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung Regional Programme Security Dialogue for East Africa and the Directorate of Civil Registry, Nationality, Passports and Immigration

Empowering young entrepreneurs with business knowledge is a vital step toward financial self-reliance and reducing their vulnerability to manipulation into violent conflict. We are committed to promoting development among the young people of South Sudan for a better tomorrow. On 29th June 2026,
Successfully concluded the second phase of the Business Development Plan training of the 50 micro-entrepreneurs in Juba County. They were equipped with skills to strengthen their business profiles, define clear objectives, and prepare proposals to compete for available micro-grant opportunities across the country.

If programs designed for youth do not involve their active participation, then they are not for them. Significantly, Young people are the bedrock of our society, and a society cannot exist without its powerhouse, the youthful population, "Samse Sam". As a development organization, we continue to provide platforms for mentorship and career guidance to young people in schools by educating them on the dangers of drug abuse, mental health, sexual and identity-based violence, and their impact on health, education, their well-being, and community development. At Bright Boma Secondary School in Gudele, more than 50 students attended the awareness-raising event facilitated by Anikang Sasha. TIDE believes in the power of youth
to influence reforms, promote peace, and development. The Youth and Society project seeks to build a nonviolent group of value-based youth leaders and campaigners who will use their power and voices to advocate for inclusive decision-making across social, economic, and democratic spheres of their communities. Regards to our and individual donors.

In Juba and other cities, the engine of urban mobility is Boda-Boda, a commercial motorcycle taxi business service operated by young people in South Sudan. This service is an alternative for substituting traditional buses making movements easy to nevigate through heavy traffic, and accessing areas that cannot be reached by cars. The Boda-Boda sector in Central Equatoria and other states have employed many youth. As part of our economic empowerment and livelihoods skills development program, we successfully conducted a one day business plan training for motorcyclists "Boda-Boda" in Juba on 3rd June 2026. The activity drew over 20 participants from local community groups, boda boda cyclists and VSLA groups from Luri, Rajaf and Munuki Payams of Juba County. The aim of this capacity building training is to empower them with skills and tips for writing professional compelling business plans to seek for micro-funding and amplify their businesses. The intervention is part of our "Youth and Society Development project II" with funding from SpendeDirekt .

Let's Talk Migration Series: Who is a refugee?

A refugee is considered a person who has been forced to flee their home country due to war and violence, and has a fear of danger and cannot safely return home due to persecution in the South Sudan case. Many of its citizens remain refugees in Uganda, gaining prima facie status. Uganda has long been recognised for maintaining one of the most progressive refugee protection regimes globally, built on an open-door asylum approach. Central to this model has been the use of Group Status (prima facie) refugee recognition. This mechanism allows people fleeing mass violence or conflict to be granted refugee status as a group.

However, in March this year, Uganda announced that it had revoked group status recognition of refugees, opting for individual status determination. This move will likely create protection backlogs, increase undocumented movements, and delay access to essential services such as shelter, food assistance, healthcare, education, and legal documentation.

As a result of the above backdrop, we held a one-day public policy dialogue to assess the Implications of Uganda’s Shift from Group Status Refugee Recognition. At the centre of the discussion was the policy's legal and humanitarian consequences for migrants and refugees. Many of the participants highlighted that South Sudan and D.R Congo, among other East African countries, remain affected by active conflict and governance challenges amidst an increasing climate-induced migration, making group movements inevitable. Therefore, the stakeholders called for regional solidarity, urging the Ugandan Government to apply its new policy leniency, taking into account the situation of refugees from South Sudan and the D.R. Congo. This policy dialogue at the Radson Blu Hotel Juba was attended by over 80 stakeholders drawn from CSOs, Government officials, and academia.

This program is implemented in partnership with our partner, Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung "Regional Programme Security Dialogue for East Africa

South Sudan has continued to experience mass migration both within and outside the country since the beginning of 2026. Between January and March 2026, the country suffered a fresh wave of increased military confrontation between the South Sudan Defence Forces (SSDF) and the Sudan People’s Liberation Army in Opposition-SPLA-IO, especially in Jonglei, Upper Nile, and Lake States, amounting to at least 280,000 Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs), according to reports from Relief Web and IOM. Therefore, on 4/23/26, under our "Let's Talk Migration Project", we held an Expert Roundtable Discussion on the Impact of Renewed Migration Crisis Amidst Reduced funding in South Sudan. The purpose of the event is to analyse the impact of the renewed in-country crisis on the political, economic, and social aspects of migration and election preparations amidst reduced funding, and also to assess the current coordination mechanisms and response among migration agencies on internal displacements, and to inform partner programming on migration amidst the changing funding, political, and security landscape in South Sudan. This activity was conducted in partnership with our partner Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung, in collaboration with the National Ministry of Interior's Directorate of Civil Registry, Nationality, Passports, and Immigration (DCRNPI). Thanks to all our participants and panellists for the insightful and engaging conversations. We look forward to more of these. Netherlands Embassy in South Sudan
