Working Papers from African Economic Research Consortium

Abstract: South Sudan is emerging from devastating conflict that has left thousands dead and millions displaced. The 2018 peace agreement implementation remains elusive as instability persist in some parts of the country. The onset of COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated the crisis as government response limited economic activities and increased pressure on the ailing health system. This research explores the impact of the pandemic on the trade sector, underfunded and fragile health system, and fluid peace process in South Sudan.
