Dry season in South Sudan means that a large number of herders and their thousands of cattle migrate in search of water and new pastures. To minimize the related conflicts that occur, the United Nations Mission in South Sudan has embarked on a series of peace dialogues in affected areas, most recently in Tonj South in Warrap State.
“Please, do not let your cows destroy our crops. We [farmers] are ready to share the resources that exist with you in a peaceful way,” said Wol Ngong Uchala, a resident of Bab-Chok in the Malual Muok area, addressing the cattle keepers in attendance and praising the peacekeeping mission for bringing stakeholders together.
