South Sudan

=== Water crisis ===
{{Further|Water supply in South Sudan}}{{See also|Sudanese nomadic conflicts}}
The [[water supply in South Sudan]] is faced with numerous challenges. Although the [[White Nile]] runs through the country, water is scarce during the dry season in areas that are not located on the river.

About half the population does not have access to an [[improved water source]], defined as a protected well, standpipe or a handpump within one kilometre. The few existing piped water supply systems are often not well maintained and the water they provide is often not safe to drink. Displaced people returning home put a huge strain on infrastructure, and the government institutions in charge of the sector are weak. Substantial external funding from numerous government agencies and non-governmental organizations is available to improve water supply.

Numerous non-governmental organizations support water supply in Southern Sudan, such as [[Water is Basic]], [[Water for South Sudan]], the Obakki Foundation<ref>{{cite web|url=https://obakkifoundation.org/projects|title=Obakki Foundation|publisher=ObakkiFoundation.com|access-date=2 May 2013|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190120004231/https://obakkifoundation.org/projects/|archive-date=20 January 2019}}</ref> and Bridgton-Lake Region Rotary Club<ref>{{cite web|url=http://lakeregionrotary.com|title=Rotary Club of Bridgton Lake-Region|publisher=Lakeregionrotary.com|access-date=2 May 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190611161653/https://www.lakeregionrotary.com/|archive-date=11 June 2019|url-status=live}}</ref> from North America.
