MAGNA was founded not only to provide assistance in disasters and conflicts, but also to talk about what we see. We believe that silence can kill. We hope that by revealing injustice we can help put an end to it.
We are where we are most needed. We have more than 500 workers in the field saving children's lives in areas of major humanitarian disasters such as Congo, Syria and South Sudan. Find out more about our work in the countries where we operate.
South Sudan
Years of conflict have forced millions of people from their homes.
Population: 12.23 million
People internally displaced by the crisis: 2 million
Opening of South Sudan mission: 2011
MAGNA teams are currently providing health care in the Duk Pagaak area of Jonglei State.
Hundreds of thousands of people in South Sudan, who face extreme violence and live in fear of their lives, have no access to basic needs such as food, water, and health care.
We work in an area of Jonglei, operating some of the most demanding programs we run in the entire world.
Our teams provide basic and specialized health care, and respond to the extraordinary situations and outbreaks of disease that affect isolated communities and internally displaced people.
Responding to the acute malnutrition that threatens the lives of many children in Duk County, MAGNA introduced preventive, screening, and therapeutic procedures to treat moderate to severe acute malnutrition for the most vulnerable population groups: children aged 6 - 59 months and pregnant and nursing women. Severe acute malnutrition is the most extreme kind of malnutrition, placing children in danger of dying at a rate nine times higher than among their healthy peers.
We further focused on treating the most frequent maladies such as malaria, diarrhoea, and respiratory and skin infections, the most common cause of death among children under 5.
