On June 28th, 2026, Action for Equality Foundation successfully conducted education activities at Nyarjua Primary School in Kapuri Payam, Juba County, Central Equatoria State (CES) as part of its continued commitment to promoting children's rights and ensuring safe, inclusive learning environments.
As part of the activity, two Child Rights Clubs were established at the school. The clubs provide a safe space where pupils can learn about their rights and responsibilities, develop leadership skills, and actively participate in promoting a child-friendly school environment. They will also help raise awareness about child protection and encourage peer-to-peer learning.
Menstrual Hygiene Management (MHM) Awareness
The activity included menstrual hygiene management (MHM) sessions for adolescent girls. Participants received practical information on menstrual health, personal hygiene, and the importance of maintaining dignity and confidence during menstruation. The sessions also encouraged girls to remain in school and participate fully in their education.
In addition to the MHM sessions, pupils were sensitized on key child rights messages, including the rights to education, protection, participation, and development. The discussions encouraged children to speak up against abuse, respect one another, and contribute to creating a safe and supportive learning environment.
Human rights violations
Sexual violence in South Sudan has been instrumental zed as a reward and entitlement for youth and men participating in conflict. It serves as a means of building ethnic solidarity to mete out retribution against perceived enemies; the objective being to inflict maximum disruption and the destruction of the fabric of communities, including through their constant displacement. This scourge has had the most profound impact on victims, their families and communities.

Civil war
Only a few years after independence from Sudan, a civil war broke out. South Sudan’s independence ends decades of conflict as well as socioeconomic and political marginalization at the hands of successive governments in Khartoum, which affected women in gender-specific ways. Independence thus opens up opportunities for women’s economic and social empowerment, ensuring that the new country’s political and economic structures and institutions reflect commitments to women’s participation and human rights. In turn, empowering women will enable South Sudan to strengthen its economic and political structures and institutions.
Action For Equality Foundation (AFEF) was born by a group of professional south Sudanese in various field of competency who diligently have come together realizing the cry and suffering of the people of South Sudan and endeavor to purposely give in to serve the communities saving lives through advocating on behalf of the vulnerable, deprived, the victims of SGBV and persons living with HIV/AID unveiling the trauma and stigma.
