In the last week of July, UNHCR and partners resumed operations for asylum seekers and refugees in Juba after nearly 15 days of paralyzed services that followed July 8 violence, including the reopening of the reception centre at UNHCR office and a community centre in Gudele. During the crisis, UNHCR maintained close contact with refugees through a dedicated hotline.
On 19 August, UNHCR partner ACROSS regained access to Gorom settlement, 10 days after insecurity in Juba rendered it cut-‐off. General food distribution took place on 28 July, after UNHCR’s negotiations with authorities to ensure safe passage for the food convoy dispatched from Juba.
In Juba, UNHCR continued to work with ACTED and Nonviolent Peace Force to receive IDPs relocating from UMISS Tomping to UN House. By the end of July, 115 out of 4,500 people were relocated. UNHCR in coordination with UNFPA began expanding SGBV programming for IDPs.
