Handicap International (HI) has been operating in South Sudan since 2006, implementing emergency and development actions aimed at improving the protection, quality of life, and the promotion of the rights of people with disabilities (PWDs) and other vulnerable individuals and communities. From 2006 to 2013, HI implemented a range of projects, shifting progressively from an emergency action/ repatriation to a resilience approach up to 2013.
However, it soon became evident that the increasing complexity of requests required a more comprehensive mission to provide effective interventions in areas where no disability-related service had ever been available.
As of January 2016, the programme includes:
· An emergency component with 2 projects (Juba IDPs camps funded by HCR and an emergency flying team)
· A long term component with a victim assistance project (rehabilitation, livelihood and advocacy components and having to develop next phase), an inclusion/DPOs project and a psychosocial project focusing people suffering from mental health problems.
