Our peace, our future: experiences from community managed disaster risk reduction approaches in South Sudan

This publications discusses the best practices, the lessons learned and the recommendations taken from Cordaid's community managed disaster risk reduction program (CMDRR) in South Sudan, aimed at building disaster resilient communities for multiple hazards. The program focuses on inter-intra community conflict, drought, flood and communicable diseases, depending on the context of the states and counties of operation.

The report features ten case studies and lessons and recommendations drawn from the main intervention areas: community and partner capacity building, community institution building, conflict transformation, livelihood security and support, water for multiple uses, and community early warning systems. Additionally, lessons learnt in conducting the CMDRR approach and lessons on planning are also captured.
