>> Summary
This report focuses on how protection issues are conceptualized and operationalized among international stakeholders (i.e. UNMIS, UN and non-UN organizations) in Bor, the state capital of Jonglei state in South Sudan, and explores key challenges to the implementation and impact of protection initiatives on the ground. Since most of the literature on PoC tends to provide UN headquarters perspectives from various levels, the aim of the study is to complement previous research by moving further down the protection chain and offering the perspectives of international actors operating in the immediate interface with vulnerable populations.
In the backdrop of the recent establishment of the Republic of South Sudan as an independent state, and the deployment of the new UN Mission in South Sudan (UNMISS), the report concludes with recommendations to the international community on ways to approach protection issues in South Sudan in the coming period.
