Development partners have played a major role in South Sudan over the past seven years. Their commitments have totaled about $4.5 billion, excluding $4 billion in contributions to United Nations Mission in the Sudan (UNMISS) peacekeeping for the same period. Funding modalities have varied, with 19% of donor funding allocated to pooled funds through 2011. The World Bank Group (WBG) has been working closely with development partners through the WBG-administered Multi-Donor Trust Fund – South Sudan (MDTF-SS), the largest of five pooled funds.
With the closing of the MDTF-SS in 2013, majority of the assistance took the form of bilateral aid. More recently, due to the outbreak of the conflict, international assistance from development partners has focused primarily on humanitarian aid and peace building and reconciliation efforts, while continuing with delivery of essential social services at the community level, implemented primarily through multilateral institutions and non-governmental organizations. Following the Compromise Peace Agreement (CPA), development partners are now reevaluating their engagement in the country to explore the best ways in which they can support the effective implementation of the CPA, while continuing with humanitarian assistance and essential services to the people of South Sudan.
A Systematic Country Diagnostic (SCD) is under preparation and the Country Partnership Framework is scheduled for discussion in FY16. The newly-introduced SCD seeks to identify the key constraints and opportunities facing the country in achieving adequate progress toward the World Bank Group’s twin goals of ending extreme poverty and promoting shared prosperity in a sustainable way. The SCD is conducted in consultation with the government authorities, main development partners, and other key local stakeholders. Following the SCD, a process will begin to prepare a Country Engagement Note (CEN) which will replace the current ISN.
