Role Dimensions:



South Sudan is one of the most challenging and exciting working environments that Save the Children currently works in. The newest country in the world, its legacy of thirty years of war has yet to be even partly addressed as its new government struggles to both mature and reach out to its people Infrastructure across the country remains virtually none-existent; with 80% of the country including State capitals only accessible for half of the year (the rainy season) by small aircraft. Even in the capital Juba there are no functioning public utilities, few tarmac roads and limited health services. Aid agencies rely on generators, water trucking and satellite internet to meet their basic needs. The agencies still provide some 75% of the basic services of the South Sudanese population. Parts of the country are still racked by insecurity tribal militias, rebel militia groups and direct conflict with the North of Sudan all take their regular toll on the civilian population.
