Newly arrived refugee women hold their young children in Nguenyyiel Camp. Amongst the over 400,000 South Sudanese refugees in Ethiopia, 78% are women and children.

In late August, an influx of some 25,000 South Sudanese asylum-seekers was registered in Ethiopia. Whilst some of them fled with their cattle, many refugees fled with nothing more than the clothes they were wearing. This recent influx was relocated to Nguenyyiel Camp, where UNHCR and partners provide protection and assistance to some 82,000 refugees.
