Call for peace in South Sudan on International Peace Day 2020

Today, the 21st of September we, the undersigned Christian organisations and members of the Ecumenical Network on South Sudan (ENSS), mark the International Day of Peace and would like to draw attention to the urgent need for peace in South Sudan. We want to reiterate our solidarity with women, men, boys and girls in South Sudan ​who have for many years borne the burden of conflicts in South Sudan​. Despite some progress in bringing peace to the country, we are gravely concerned about the continuation of violence in various areas of the country and the availability of arms which continues to fuel violence in the country.
