SOUTH SUDAN
In the first half of 2017, humanitarian needs in South Sudan continued to escalate. The crisis remained first and foremost a protection crisis. The number of people displaced rose to nearly 4 million—including 1.9 million internally displaced and more than 1.9 million refugees—following large-scale government offensives in Jonglei and Upper Nile, and insecurity in the Equatorias. The majority of those displaced were women and children. Localized famine was declared in Leer and Mayendit counties in Unity on 20 February and, although the famine was halted by a massive multi-sectoral humanitarian response, food insecurity reached unprecedented levels increasing needs during the year. At the height of the lean season, some 6 million people in South Sudan were severely food insecure, including 50,000 facing catastrophic food insecurity in Leer, Mayendit and Koch in Unity and Ayod in Jonglei and a further 1.7 million in Integrated Phase Classification (IPC) Phase 4 (Emergency). The cholera outbreak which began in June 2016 continued through the dry season, becoming the most widespread and deadly outbreak of the disease since South Sudan’s independence. All of these developments heightened the risk of gender-based violence, with women and girls forced to travel farther to access fuel, food and clean water.
The operating environment in South Sudan remained challenging. Fifteen aid workers were killed from January to June 2017, including six killed in an ambush on the Juba-Pibor road in March; the highest number killed in a single incident since the conflict began in December 2013. Conflict and insecurity forced the relocation of more than 250 aid workers in the first six months of the year, cutting access to
aid for tens of thousands of civilians. Denials of access were recorded in multiple locations from January to June, with recurrent challenges experienced when endeavouring to reach areas outside of Wau town (Western Bahr El Ghazal), the Liwolo camps in Kajo-Keji (Central Equatoria), and areas south of Mundri (Western Equatoria).
Yet, despite the challenges, humanitarian organizations were able to reach more than 3.8 million people by the end of June 2017. In line with the 2017 Strategic Objectives and Response Strategy outlined in the 2017 Humanitarian Response Plan (HRP), aid agencies implemented a flexible, adaptive and coordinated response, utilizing a combination of static presence, mobile response modalities, and the delivery of survival kits to reach people in dire need across the country.

Given the global strain on humanitarian financing, the Humanitarian Country Team (HCT) agreed to keep the appeal at $1.6 billion, with $744.1 million required for humanitarian action in the second half of 2017.

SEVERITY OF NEEDS & RESPONSE
In the first half of 2017, humanitarian needs intensified in several areas, including in central and northern Jonglei, where conflict drove mass displacement and rapidly rising food insecurity. By the end of June 2017, there were 20,000 people projected to face Catastrophic levels of food insecurity in Ayod in Jonglei, and grave concern regarding the situation in other counties, including Duk. Other areas that saw a spike in needs compared to the beginning of 2017 included: the West Bank in Upper Nile; Magwi and Torit in Eastern Equatoria; and areas surrounding Yei and Kajo-Keji in Central Equatoria. Needs remained immense in central and southern Unity, as well as in and around Wau in Western Bahr el Ghazal.
In the face of the escalating crisis, humanitarian organizations utilized a range of modalities to provide life-saving assistance and protection in locations where needs were most severe. Weekly discussions were held in the Inter-Cluster Working Group to agree on needs-based geographic priorities and allocate collective assets and resources accordingly. This was particularly critical during the scale-up of the responses to the localized famine in Leer and Mayendit in Unity and mass displacement on the western bank of River Nile in Upper Nile and in central and northern Jonglei and Northern Bahr el Ghazal where food insecurity and malnutrition remained alarming.

During the first six months of 2017, 238 humanitarian organizations regularly reported implementing activities under the Humanitarian Response Plan: 132 National Non-Governmental Organizations (NNGOs), 97 INGOs and 9 UN entities. However, many of these organizations remain under-funded, particularly NNGOs, with only 93 out of 137 in the appeal having reported receiving funding to date.
Events in the first half of 2017 further impacted organizations’ presence in South Sudan, with attacks against aid workers causing some organizations to review their activities and active conflict causing the withdrawal of aid workers from multiple locations. South Sudanese aid workers continue to form the backbone of the humanitarian response, constituting ninety percent of the humanitarian workforce across the country. However, during the first six months of 2017, there were multiple threats directed against
South Sudanese of certain ethnicities, making it even more dangerous and difficult to sustain operational capacity in key locations.
Securing people’s access to humanitarian assistance and protection in safety and dignity was a predominant challenge in the first half of the year, as anticipated in the Humanitarian Response Plan. The number of humanitarian access incidents remained high, with an average of 82 access incidents reported per month from January to June 2017, compared to an average of 63.5 incidents per month during the same period in 2016. Access negotiations remained a paramount enabler of the humanitarian operation, but became increasingly time-consuming and complex due to the proliferation of armed actors and logistical challenges making contact with key interlocutors, particularly in the Equatorias.

SOUTH SUDAN 2017 HRP MID-YEAR REVIEW
OVERVIEW OF OPERATIONAL RESPONSE PLAN CHANGES
In light of the evolution of the crisis and humanitarian needs, clusters have reviewed—and in several instances revised—the number of People in Need and People Targeted by sector for the latter half of 2017. The most significant changes will be implemented by the Food Security and Livelihoods Cluster, which has increased the number of people targeted by partners from 4.8 million to 5.7 million in light of the most recent Integrated Phase Classification (IPC) results which found 6 million severely food insecure people in South Sudan. The majority of this increase comes from an expansion of the emergency livelihoods response, which is designed to save lives (HRP Strategic Objective 1) and at the same time to support at -risk communities to cope with significant threats (HRP Strategic Objective 3).
Taking into consideration growing needs, funding received, and the response implemented from January to June, the HRP prioritization was reviewed and four clusters (Education, Food Security and Livelihoods, Nutrition and Protection) updated their geographic areas of focus or critical activities.
