3107: Working Together: Impact of Right2Grow Initiative in South Sudan

The Right2Grow consortium has concluded its programme in South Sudan after four years of implementation. The initiative, which began in 2021, focused on integrating water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) with nutrition to tackle the impact of poor WASH services on child malnutrition. Speaking in Juba at the official closure, consortium partners highlighted how the project targeted vulnerable children by linking access to clean water and sanitation with improved nutrition outcomes.Guests in this discussion include Joyce Akandu Ayume, Right2Grow Consortium Manager in South Sudan with Save the Children; Samuel Chor Alier, National Coordinator of the Child Rights Civil Society Coalition; and Laurence Caron, Right2Grow Programme Manager at Save the Children Netherlands.
