Add to Cart Add to Lightbox Download

A woman cooks a meal for her family in Bor, a city in South Sudan's Jonglei State that has been the scene of fierce fighting in recent months between the country's military and anti-government rebels. After fighting broke out in mid December 2013, control of the town changed hands four times in a few weeks. ACT Alliance members were among the first humanitarian agencies to enter the city in January 2014, and are providing services to thousands of people who are cautiously returning home to the troubled city. This woman received her cooking pot in a packet of essential household items she received from the ACT Alliance.
