Families once again lost their homes and had to flee to higher ground where basic resources are lacking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\"The situation is acute and requires a rapid response,\" emphasizes Dorina Waldmeyer, Programme Manager South Sudan at Mission 21. The organization will provide emergency aid, including food distributions and urgently needed goods. Temporary camps with clean water, sanitary facilities and health services will be set up to contain the spread of disease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Long-term measures are also planned, including rebuilding homes, restoring livelihoods and repairing damaged infrastructure. Of particular importance is the promotion of sustainable land and water management practices as well as investment in disaster preparedness and flood prevention training at community level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mission 21 calls for international support to tackle the escalating humanitarian crisis in South Sudan and build long-term resilience to climate-related disasters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mission-21.org\/en\/donate\/\">Thank you for your donation with the note \"Emergency aid South Sudan\".<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mission-21.org\/en\/projects\/floods-in-south-sudan-temp-2\/\">&gt; Information about the project<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Angesichts der schweren \u00dcberschwemmungskrise in der Greater Upper Nile-Region des S\u00fcdsudans hat Mission 21 entscheidende Massnahmen zur Unterst\u00fctzung der betroffenen Gemeinden angek\u00fcndigt.
