South Sudan’s Majokyinthio Centre Helps Sudanese Refugee Family Rebuild After Two‑Month Journey
WHY IT MATTERS
The centre’s holistic aid turns immediate survival into a foundation for long‑term recovery, illustrating how coordinated humanitarian response can help displaced families rebuild livelihoods and hope.
What happened
After the 2023 Sudan conflict, 32‑year‑old Adut fled Wad Madani with six children, losing her home, restaurant, savings and all possessions. The two‑month trek to South Sudan’s Northern Bahr el Ghazal was marked by checkpoints, scarce food and water, and high transport costs.
Upon arrival at the Majokyinthio Reception Centre, Acted registered her family and provided integrated support: safe accommodation, WASH facilities, protection services, a complaints‑feedback mechanism, and multi‑purpose cash assistance that enabled her to buy food and cover basic needs. The centre also offers psychosocial support and skill‑building activities for women and girls.
With these services, Adut now plans to secure land, farm, and eventually restart a small business to support her children.
