WFP food assistance in Pigi Canal County, April 2017
Specific objectives:
Mapping population displacement & understanding the context;
Meet with drop zone coordinators & NPA (FSL partner) & Nile Hope (Nutrition) teams in both locations;
Food security HH surveys with families that had a Severe Acute Malnourished child in the OTP supported by Nile Hope in both locations (WFP & UNICEF supplies) – total of 4 HH interviews conducted (2 at each location)
Diel / Atar 3 context (Pigi Canal)
New Fangak context (Fangak County)
Evolution of outcome over time at two RRM sites
Location: New Fangak (Jonglei) Diel Payam/ Atar 3 (Pigi Canal)
Context: Established 1975 highland area which did not flood &
became the County HQ; December 2013 fighting in Malakal: displacement to Fangak/
Nasir/ Nyirol & Akobo; 2014 saw iG arrival & destruction of the town & removal of
trees (over 7 month period) & laying of land mines! Residents fled to peripheral payams October 2015 residents began to return to New Fangak (Nuer)
plus IDPs from Bentui (Nuer) and others from Malakal (Nuer, Dinka & Shilluck)
April 2017 registered case load of 38,800 2017:
July 2016 floods & poor harvest effect February 2017: arrival of new IDPs from Kaldak/ Khofulus/
Canal; Bentui & Leer; and even by boat from Juba April – July lean season: time of ‘normal’ food shortage
especially for more vulnerable HHs
-IDP case load 21,197 in 6 locations
around Atar 3 drop zone;
-Mixed Shilluck, Dinka & mainly
Nuer from six locations following
fighting around Malakal:
Khorfulus including NPA staff from (see map);
Kolethok Canal Kaldak Atar 2 Owach
Evolution of emergency interventions over time
Interventions: for the past 18 months;
-World Relief (livelihood protection + FAO) and
Nutrition (UNICEF) in more peripheral payams;
-Nile Hope WFP/ UNICEF Nutrition in peri urban
payams
-CAO healthcare (UNICEF) and GBV & protection
-NPA GFD partner
-MSF temporary clinic & preparing a temporary
hospital on site of the destroyed hospital
Shift from emergency relief (Oct 2015) to more
recovery (late 2016):
CAO: IGAs & women’s centre Nile Hope CBT program for 715 HHs after a
market assessment: including support to traders
New response just starting up – emergency relief:
-GFD supplies: WFP/ NPA registration & distribution
about to commence
-OTP / TSFP site run by Nile Hope: with RUTF (Plumpy
Nut) and RUSF (Plumpy Supp);
-WASH (Nile Hope): HP/ water treatment/ H2H
personal hygiene social mobilization/ hand washing
with soap & ash
-Health distribution of UNICEF drugs for self-
medication
-Anticipate IOM NFIs the following day;
Integrating FSL (NPA) Nutrition (Nile Hope) & Health (MSF) – using child
malnutrition as an outcome indicator I
Malnutrition status & outcome – New Fangak Malnutrition status & outcome – Diel/ Atar 3
Malnutrition:
OTP – 70 (SAM) PLW – 36 TSFP – 65 (MAM)
135 malnourished children for 38,800 population;
Malnutrition trend:
October 2015 considered by KI as very high (baseline 100)
June 2016 – scored 39 April 2017 – scored 31 July 2017 – predict 41 (lean season coming &
arrival of new IDPs)
Suggests a positive impact of the interventions;
Total 237 acute malnourished children: 63 SAM & 174
MAM (only for the IDPs around Atar 3) based on
MUAC screening – this appears to be very high;
-Malnourished PLW – 116 identified & CSB+ supplies;
237 malnourished children for 21,197 population but
5 other IDP sites data for SAM & MAM not yet
recorded;
Potentially high levels (seek assistance on calculating
a GAM rate)
Assumption: high levels associated with 6 weeks of
displacement and reliance solely on wild foods for
most of the vulnerable HHs (those with SAM children)
Integrating FSL (NPA) Nutrition (Nile Hope) & Health (MSF) – using child
malnutrition as an outcome indicator II
FSL & Nutrition cluster partners keep up the good work
