Floods in South Sudan have triggered an alarm for acute food insecurity across the country, says IPC report. About 1.3 million children suffer from acute malnutrition, the deadliest hunger, exacerbated by the spread of malaria and unsafe drinking water connected to the floods. 1 million people have been affected by the floods since July 2020; Jonglei State is at the heart of the devastation. The isolated area of Old Fangak, north of Jonglei, will starve by the start of 2021. This project documents the devastation on three levels: natural disaster, food insecurity, loss of dignified living.
