Jointassessments conducted in South Kordofan state in affectedareas where access has been granted indicates that 39,129IDPs had no adequate WASH services because of brokenwater supply infrastructures and poor hygiene and sanitationpractices.The sporadic clashes between Government forces and armedmovements, as well as inter-tribal tensions in Darfur, resultedin new displacement in in both North and South Darfur. Shortageof water supply has been observed in some IDP camps, asthe camps have grown out of the initial design and the waternetworks become inadequate to meet the current need andIn addition, due to the poor rainfall during last year, the waterlevels of many water sources have drastically declined resultingin a significant reduction of yield. This has necessitated theincrease of working hours of many motorized water sourcesto cope with the increasing water demand in the IDP camps.Sector partners are investigating vulnerable aquifers in IDPscamps to determine the effect of drought on these watersources; however, most of the electronic loggers installed inobservation wells in the IDPs camps are also not operating dueto technical problems.Preparedness ActivitiesA preparedness plan has been produced for the South Sudanesereturnees and the high risk border areas. In the plan, lifesavingemergency WASH supplies were expected to be prepositionedto support a total of 1,965,000 people in the statescovered by the contingency plan. The total funding requiredfor preparedness activities for 2012 is $13.2 million of which$6.2 million was received. The need for the next six months willbe $7.0 million.Achievements as of 15 May 2012The Sector provided sustained access to improved watersupply for 2.8 million IDPs and affected communities throughthe operation, maintenance and rehabilitation of existingservices. An additional 165,055 people have gained accessto improved water supply through the construction of newfacilities. Meanwhile, six communities in South Darfur weredeclared to be free from open defecation and 241,208 peoplewere provided access to improved sanitation trough theconstruction of new sanitation facilities and the rehabilitationof damaged sanitation facilities.In terms of hygiene education, 1.9 million people were reachedwith hygiene education messages and 1.7 million peoplehave been served through solid waste management activities.Moreover, almost 1.1 million people have been served byvector control measures in IDPs camps and risks areas.Capacity building activities have been carried out for 5,850people by community members and WASH sector staff.
