🌍 Cymru spotlight on South Sudan – lunchtime webinar

A conversation with James Wani, Christian Aid South Sudan

📅 Tuesday 22 September at 1pm

➡️ Register here to get the joining details

In this year’s Harvest Appeal we’re putting a spotlight on communities in South Sudan, a country that continues to experience conflict, displacement, food insecurity and the impacts of the climate crisis. Over 7 million people – half of the population – are facing extreme hunger and high rates of acute malnutrition, and yet it rarely reaches our headlines.

Join us to hear directly from James about:

• The world’s worst humanitarian crisis and how our local partners are responding.

• The impact of the climate crisis and El Niño on families and the projects that are bringing hope.

• How communities in South Sudan are hosting and welcoming refugees from Sudan.

• The role of young people, faith leaders and faith-based partners like the South Sudan Council of Churches in peacebuilding and reconciliation.

• How Christian Aid’s local partners are helping people build resilience, respond to emergencies and create sustainable change.

This webinar is led by Christian Aid Cymru, in partnership with Global Climate Justice Cymru.
