Abstract

South Sudan has faced prolonged conflict since its independence in , leading to significant displacement and disruption of educational services. No empirical data or results are provided; this is a theoretical exploration based on existing literature and expert testimonies. Conflict has severely impeded educational opportunities for children and youth in South Sudan, exacerbating pre-existing inequalities and socio-economic challenges. Immediate steps are needed to establish safe learning environments and integrate displaced populations into existing or new education programmes to mitigate the long-term impacts of conflict on educational access.
