You are not alone in managing hypertension and diabetes.

In Yambio County, patients living with hypertension and diabetes are finding strength, knowledge and encouragement through regular patient support group meetings at Yambio State Hospital.

Supported by Industrie and implemented by Amref Health Africass, the initiative provides a safe space for patients and caregivers to share experiences, learn from one another and receive guidance from health workers on managing their conditions.

As one participant shared: “After joining this clinic, my blood pressure is improving. I’m here to give my appreciation to the organization for such a project.”

Through awareness, peer support and continued care, communities can take important steps towards better management of non-communicable diseases.

Because managing a chronic condition is easier when you don’t have to do it alone. 💙

Honouring Those Who Serve Humanity

On , we stand with humanitarian workers across South Sudan and around the world who continue to serve communities in some of the most challenging circumstances.

From the frontline to the communities we serve, their work is driven by compassion, courage and a commitment to humanity.

Today, we honor the humanitarian workers who have lost their lives while serving others, and we remember the countless sacrifices made in the pursuit of dignity, safety and hope.

We also recognize every humanitarian worker who continues to show up, listen, respond and serve — often far from home and in difficult conditions.

Your commitment matters. Your work matters. Humanity matters.

This World Humanitarian Day, we call on all of us to — to stand together, protect those who serve, and keep putting people at the heart of humanitarian action.

We remember. We honour. We stand with humanity.

Every Breastfeed Counts

Every time a mother breastfeeds, she is giving her baby more than nourishment. She is helping build strong immunity, supporting healthy brain development, and providing comfort and love.

🤱🏾 Every feed matters.
🌱 Every feed supports a healthier future.
đź’› Every breastfeed counts.

Let’s support mothers to breastfeed whenever and wherever they can.

Building Stronger Support for GBV Survivors

Our team in Yambio recently participated in a training on the Victim Assistance Protocol (VAP)—a UN guide that helps strengthen how survivors of gender-based violence, including sexual exploitation and abuse (SEA), are supported and referred to appropriate services.

The workshop was officially opened by the Director General, State Ministry of Gender, Child and Social Welfare, while the UNHCR representative stressed the importance of reporting SEA cases so that survivors can access the support and services they need.

UNMISS staff facilitated sessions that equipped participants with practical knowledge on applying the VAP in their work.

At Amref Health Africa South Sudan, we believe that strengthening the capacity of frontline actors is an important step towards ensuring survivors receive safe, dignified, survivor-centred and appropriate support.

Every Mother Needs Support

Breastfeeding is not a mother’s responsibility alone. Every mother needs encouragement, understanding and practical support from those around her — from fathers and families to health workers, communities and employers.

This August, as part of our month-long breastfeeding campaign, Amref Health Africa in South Sudan is calling on all of us to create an environment where mothers feel supported to breastfeed.

When we support mothers, we give children a healthier start. 🍼💙

Together, let’s build a breastfeeding-friendly South Sudan.

As we reflect on International Youth Day 2026, we celebrate the young people across South Sudan who are shaping their communities through their ideas, voices and actions.

At Amref Health Africa, with the generous support of UNFPAss , we continue to empower young people through initiatives such as the Youth Empowerment Hub, providing skills, knowledge and opportunities to help them build healthier communities and brighter futures.

The celebration may have been yesterday, but our commitment to young people continues every day.

Young people deserve to be heard, valued and included in the decisions that shape their lives.

Their voices are not just the future. They are part of the change happening today.

From Community Dialogue to School Action: Celebrating World Breastfeeding Week in Warrap

This year's World Breastfeeding Week celebrations in Warrap brought communities, schools and health partners together to promote better support for breastfeeding mothers and young children. ❤️🤱🏾

At Thiet PHCC, the launch brought together local Payam stakeholders, with key messages shared on strengthening community-level support for infant nutrition and maternal health.

The celebration continued at Mabior Yar PHCU through a school debate between Angol Madol Primary School and Thiet Don Bosco Primary School, combining nutrition and health education with messages for working caregivers—including safely expressing and storing breastmilk, feeding babies with a clean cup while at work, and advocating for breastfeeding-friendly workplaces.

And, of course, the day wouldn’t be complete without some friendly competition! The football match between the two schools brought everyone together in the spirit of teamwork and community.

World Breastfeeding Week doesn’t end with the week—it is a call to keep supporting mothers and families every day.

Thank you to our partners, local leaders, health workers, schools, teachers, caregivers and communities for making these celebrations possible and for championing breastfeeding and better nutrition in Warrap.

This World Breastfeeding Week, we’re making breastfeeding a month-long conversation.

This August, Amref Health Africa in South Sudan joins the global community in commemorating World Breastfeeding Week (WBW) under the theme of protecting, promoting and supporting breastfeeding.

But for us, the conversation doesn’t end with World Breastfeeding Week. We are dedicating the entire month of August to raising awareness, sharing information and promoting the importance of breastfeeding and good nutrition for mothers and young children.

In Tonj, Warrap State, we are putting this message into action through our nutrition work, supporting communities to prevent and address malnutrition while promoting healthy feeding practices for mothers and young children.

Every mother deserves the right information, support and a safe environment to breastfeed. And every baby deserves the best possible start in life. đź’™

Together, throughout August, let’s protect breastfeeding. Let’s nourish children. Let’s build healthier communities.

Follow us throughout the month as we share more on breastfeeding, nutrition and our work in communities across South Sudan.
