Women of the Bongo tribe in the Aguka district of Tonj County have been craving a marketplace for years and their wishes have been granted.  Thanks to a series of construction projects, they now have a brand new building to accommodate one.  

Recently displaced by fighting in the mountainous mining areas of Lobonok, civilians are appealing for humanitarian assistance as relative calm returns to the county, located a strenuous three-hour drive from the South Sudanese capital, Juba.

How can a poor, war-torn, post-conflict country prepare itself to reintegrate thousands of refugees and internally displaced persons expected to return to their homes? Maybe by learning from its own recent history.
