Despite being a country of enormous potential,
the recent history of South Sudan has been dogged
by conflict and ethnically motivated violence.
Many had hoped that the 2011 Declaration of
Independence from the Republic of Sudan would
result in a new start for the country - enabling
its people at last to return to lives of peace and
prosperity. Tragically, the reality has fallen desperately short of these hopes; instead, South
Sudan has found itself sliding ever deeper into
brutal inter-tribal conflict and grinding poverty.
The official declaration of famine in parts of
South Sudan by the United Nations in February
2017 - the first time since 2011 that such a
declaration occurred anywhere in the world -
resulted in enormous international attention and
concern. The initial UN response focused on the

use of road convoys to transport foodstuffs to distribution hubs in the most affected areas, which
was possible because spring is the dry season in
South Sudan, and roads were relatively useable.
During this period, the World Food Programme successfully pre-positioned thousands of tons of food
before the rainy season was due to begin in early
May. However, for many isolated communities,
and for the tens of thousands of refugees fleeing
the endemic violence, huge challenges remained
in ensuring access to sufficient food, water, and
essential medical services and facilities.
In April 2017, responding to the terrible plight
of South Sudan's people, the trustees of the ISTAT
Foundation approved a $25,000 humanitarian
grant to Mission Aviation Fellowship (MAF), a
UK-based charity that has been active in Sudan
