AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

Ebola Preparedness: South Sudan is stepping up readiness as the DRC’s fast-growing Ebola outbreak spreads north, with WHO warning the risk of importation remains high due to cross-border movement and trade with DRC and Uganda. Food Security: USDA will provide up to $235 million via Catholic Relief Services for emergency food and nutrition support in Sudan and Ethiopia, delivering over 110,000 metric tons of U.S. commodities. Public Health & Testing: The South Sudan National Bureau of Standards (SSNBS) has begun training lab staff on HPLC technology to improve food safety testing and detect harmful contaminants like aflatoxins. Governance & Media: President Salva Kiir has directly appointed a new SSBC board, breaking the law, drawing fresh criticism over rule-of-law concerns. Banking Labor Dispute: A civil society coalition says the Bank of South Sudan’s dissolution of the workers’ union is unlawful, as staff resume strike action over unpaid benefits. Independence & Peace Calls: Catholic bishops renewed appeals for peace, dialogue, and reconciliation as South Sudan marks 15 years since independence.
