Nutrtion

South Sudan has some of the worst nutrition indicators in Africa. As of 2010, it was estimated that 48.2% of children were stunted due to chronic malnutrition with 22.7% suffering wasting, indicating acute malnutrition. These results confirm the average trend of 22% global acute malnutrition (GAM) observed in the period from 1998 to 2009. The most recent nutrition survey conducted between January and June 2012 revealed an 18.5% GAM rate and 3.9% severe acute malnutrition (SAM) within twenty high-risk counties. Malnutrition plays a large part in the high mortality rate for children under five and contributes to the overall disease burden. Recent evidence links early childhood malnutrition to later development of chronic non-communicable disease; it is also associated with irreversible damages to cognitive and physiological development. These consequences, in turn, lead to economic losses and undermine the development agenda. Malnutrition is caused by inadequate food intake, inadequate healthcare, ignorance and negative socio – cultural practices. Nutrition shall constitute a core component of the Basic Package of Health and Nutritional Services and other related health policies.

Because of its crosscutting importance, the MoH shall strengthen coordination and collaboration with multi-sectoral stakeholders to improve the nutrition situation in the country. The MoH shall engage in core interventions to address all forms of malnutrition including the double burden of over nutrition. A framework for mobilising resources for nutrition services shall be developed and the policies, plans, structures and systems needed to implement quality nutritional services, established.

Recent activities include:

  • Finalizing the national Nutritional Health Policy (NHP), this is awaiting state level consultations before presentation to the Nutrition Cluster and the Council of Ministers for endorsement.

  • Rolling out the recently completed national guidelines for the integrated management of severe acute malnutrition (IMSAM) and the ready packs (job aids) for moderate acute malnutrition (MAM).

  • Developing a national strategy for the implementation of the global guidelines for infant and young child feeding (IYCF).

  • Strengthening the coordination and performance of humanitarian actors with regards to the nutrition crisis in South Sudan.

PHEOC

Generic activities to be undertaken within the first 72 hours

South Sudan has been affected by the recurrent public health emergencies, including cholera, measles, Meningitis, Rift Valley Fever(RVF) as well as yellow fever in different parts of the country.

The country was responding to different public health emergencies through the existing emergency coordination platforms: National Task Force (NTF), technical working groups(TWG) which constitute members from different government sectors, UN agencies and national and international non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and other partners.

To contribute to strengthening of national capacity for coordinating, the preparedness and response efforts, the Ministry of Health(MOH) of the Republic of South Sudan with support of the World Health Organization(WHO) established and officially inaugurated a public health emergency operation center (PHEOC) in October 2018. A PHEOC plays critical role in fulfilling the areas of emergency support functions of the nation, international Health Regulation (IHR-2005) obligations as well as the integrated Disease Surveillance and Response )IDSR) core functons.
