DTM and NFI teams collected updated information on the number and needs of IDPs within South Sudan in the areas of Lainya and Wonduruba. A total of 2,397 displaced households were recorded in Wonduruba, while 2,389 or 4,659 households were recorded as displaced, depending on the source. The primary driver of displacement amongst the assessed population is attributed to the ongoing conflict. The majority of internally displaced persons (IDPs) do not intend to return to their pre-displacement locations. There are no functioning schools in the IDP settlements in Lainya and Wonduruba and the children are not attending school. Two of the seven locations assessed are inaccessible to humanitarian agencies as they are controlled by opposition groups and accessible only to local chiefs. A majority of the population uses water from streams around the displacement areas and only few receive water from boreholes. It is recommended that: returnees be registered in locations accessible to humanitarian agencies; WASH items be included in caseloads; the WASH cluster be engaged more comprehensively; a mobile clinic be installed during registration and distribution in Wonduruba
