evidence: The Abyei region remains a contested area between Sudan and South Sudan, with its political future and final status still unresolved. A proposed joint administration from a 2011 agreement still needs to be established, with separate administrations appointed by both Juba and Khartoum struggling to provide basic services. The region grapples with frequent violence from armed elements, climate change-induced disasters, and economic hardships driven by high inflation in Sudan and South Sudan. The international community serves as the primary provider of life-saving assistance and protection, although access challenges, limited resources, and unequal aid distribution persist. In 2024, given the conflict in Sudan and strained resources, coordinated humanitarian efforts between South Sudan and Sudan will remain challenging. Humanitarian assistance will be extended from both countries to cover Abyei's entire area, accommodating around 280,000 individuals in need of humanitarian assistance. Conflict, loss of livelihood, and displacement compounded by the influx of returnees from Sudan, will continue to increase vulnerability in 2024. Climate change exacerbates these issues, with floods and livestock diseases disrupting the local economy and increasing food insecurity. Humanitarian efforts in Abyei aim to alleviate suffering, reduce dependency on aid, and cover health, nutrition, WASH, agriculture, livestock, protection, and education. It considers conflict dynamics, returnees, refugees, climate, seasonal migration, and livestock's role in the local economy. Humanitarian and recovery agencies will focus on revitalizing economic activities and enhancing income-generating opportunities to improve livelihoods. This comprehensive response seeks to address the complex and interconnected challenges facing Abyei's population.
