Welcome To
Wiki For Human Rights 2023 in South Sudan
Intro/ Problem statement edit
Climate change has had significant impacts on the lives of people in South Sudan, including extreme flooding events. In 2022, 1.18 billion people globally were affected by such events, 27 million of whom were children. Despite this, there is a lack of information and understanding about how individuals and communities are experiencing and responding to these impacts. The change the Wikiforhumarights 2023 in South Sudan will bring is the availability and access to relevant information about climate change, rivers, and topics of impact around climate change and as well make sure the content created is also available in Dinka and Nuer Languages to make sure the content is available.
