Summary

UN agencies, civil society and survivor groups in South Sudan are strengthening efforts to prevent conflict-related sexual violence following a two-day UN Action Lab. In the studio, panellists emphasise that early warning, survivor-centred approaches and coordinated action are key to reducing risks before violence occurs. Officials say nearly 500 survivors have received support in recent years, highlighting the scale of the challenge. They stress that prevention is possible through joint action, community engagement and ensuring survivors’ dignity, consent, and protection remain central to all responses. The Miraya Breakfast Show is in conversation with: Sheila B Keetharuth, Senior Women’s Protection Advisor, UNMISS and Co-Chair of the Monitoring Analysis and Reporting Arrangements (MARA) Kate Rougvie, Team Leader, UN Department of Peace Operations, DPET/CRSV Team Father John Ngbapia, Director of Rural Development Action Aid
