ACT Appeal 141 Assistance to asylum seekers and refugees from South Sudan, Revision 1

By October 2014, over 190,000 South Sudanese refugees have arrived in Ethiopia and nearly 48,000 have been accommodated in Leitchuor camp, which has very little in terms of WASH, shelter and other basic services. Out of all the neighboring countries receiving South Sudanese asylum seekers, Ethiopia has witnessed the biggest surge in arrivals, bringing the total number of South Sudanese refugees in Ethiopia to 246,704. This year, with 635,950 refugees in total, Ethiopia has become the largest refugee-hosting country in Africa. This Revised Appeal replaces the Full Appeal issued on 12th February 2014.
