Sida's work in South Sudan
Climate-related disasters and violence have forced many people to flee their homes. A large part of the population is in need of humanitarian support. Sida provides, for example, clean water, food, healthcare and shelter.
South Sudan is one of the ten countries receiving the most humanitarian support in 2025.
Sida works with international humanitarian and civil society organisations, prioritising the people most in need of support.

South Sudan does not have a Swedish country strategy for development cooperation as it is not one of the countries prioritised for development cooperation by the Swedish government. However, Sida implements a small amount of development cooperation through regional or global strategies.
