Children in South Sudan grow up in one of the most difficult environments in the world. Malnutrition is a constant threat, with around 2.3 million children under five acutely affected, many facing long-term consequences such as stunted growth. Health services are extremely limited, exposing children to preventable diseases like malaria, diarrhoea and pneumonia, and mortality rates remain among the highest globally. More than 2.8 million are out of school, one of the largest figures worldwide. Families often lack safe water, sanitation and basic healthcare, making survival a daily struggle and increasing risks. Infant and maternal mortality remain alarmingly high, showing the scale of the crisis that burdens the youngest generation.
