Samenvatting

Humanitarian aid organisations in South Sudan have faced challenges regarding the restrictions imposed by the South Sudan government regarding the spread of the Covid-19 virus. Research shows that the restrictions did not only require organisations to adapt their logistics management but did also provide new challenges and opportunities for localisation of humanitarian aid and logistics in South Sudan. This study investigates the relationship between the Covid-19 pandemic and humanitarian logistics in South Sudan and aims to show options for an increase of localised humanitarian aid.
