own water from the river, which is chlorinated by IOM when<br />

they return. As of 24 January, 308 latrines are operational at<br />

the camp, along with 32 bathing units. Refuse collection is<br />

becoming more frequent, with eight trucks transporting solid<br />

waste between 23 and 24 January. Hygiene promoters are<br />

conducting household visits within the camp, focusing on the<br />

prevention of waterborne disease. 1,960 households were<br />

reached with hygiene messaging in the past week.<br />

HEALTH<br />

Malakal<br />

Health assistance for IDPs in the UNMISS Malakal Protection<br />

of Civilians (PoC) area is a major concern, as the UNMISS<br />

Status of IDP registration in UN bases<br />

as of 25 January<br />

Level 2 Hospital was destroyed by shelling and emergency<br />

health partners that were initially providing support were<br />

pulled out due to the security situation.<br />

On 26 January IOM reopened a clinic on the UNMISS Malakal<br />

base, filling a gap left by the departure of the previous health<br />

partner. The clinic consists of three 20m2 prefabricated<br />

buildings, one of which is serving as a dispensary. Tents will be<br />

erected for triage and waiting areas. IOM currently has two<br />

medical assistants, two nurses and one pharmacist on the<br />

ground in Malakal.<br />

Sixty consultations were conducted on the clinic’s first day of<br />

operations. Medical staff have been speaking with community<br />

leaders to inform them about the opening of the clinic. IOM<br />

and partners are working on a mass measles vaccination<br />

campaign, set to begin as soon as a reliable cold chain can be<br />

re-established in Malakal.<br />

Bentiu<br />

An IOM health team arrived in Bentiu<br />

on 21 January to set up a semi-static<br />

clinic on the UNMISS base, where<br />

health care is urgently needed for the<br />

IDP population. Consultations began on<br />

23 January, and in the first two days the<br />

IOM clinic saw 118 patients. Cases of<br />

watery and bloody diarrhea were the<br />

most commonly reported problems,<br />

along with malaria.<br />

CAMP COORDINATION AND<br />

CAMP MANAGEMENT<br />

The Camp Coordination and Camp<br />

Management (CCCM) Cluster<br />

coordinates and monitors the targeted<br />

and effective delivery of sector-specific<br />

services in displacement sites, thereby<br />

ensuring that basic humanitarian living<br />

conditions are maintained for IDPs,<br />

while also building the foundations<br />

for voluntary return and recovery<br />

interventions where it is possible and<br />

safe to do so. IOM and UNHCR colead<br />

the CCCM Cluster, in coordination<br />

with ACTED.<br />

Wau 699<br />

Aweil 18<br />

Total 93,679<br />

IDPs are being registered as they arrive<br />

in Wau. No new arrivals have been<br />

reported as of 23 January.<br />

Registration is ongoing in Aweil as<br />

needed.<br />

Insecurity and over-congestion remain<br />

the major challenges faced at IDP sites<br />

in the country. The population remains<br />

highly fluid as a result of ongoing<br />

instability. Strengthening of mechanisms<br />

to promote law and order within IDP<br />

sites is essential.<br />
