Our Story

Why NAVCA Was Founded

South Sudan continues to face complex humanitarian and development challenges resulting from conflict, displacement, climate shocks, poverty, and limited access to essential services.

Women, children, persons with disabilities, youth, and the elderly often bear the greatest burden of these challenges.

Recognizing the need for locally driven solutions, NAVCA was established in 2022 to provide inclusive, community-centered interventions that strengthen resilience, protect vulnerable populations, and create opportunities for sustainable development.
