2 Water is very important for every daily life
Water is very important for every daily life! Clean water means happiness!

3 My life experience and what I found out in the camps.
It was heartbreaking to see thousands of people suffering from waterborne diseases because they have no access to clean drinking water, and to see the food insecurity which increases malnutrition.

4 Issues faced by Kakuma refugees camp in Kenya
There is a shortage of food, clean water, medicine, and mosquito nets Schools are crowded with students, but there are no chairs, books, space nor enough teachers

5 Food shortage within the camp

6 These water pumps are only open for two hours a day and it is not enough for the population, according to the people in the camp.

7 Need for medicine Most of the children and adults in the Kakuma refugee camp in Kenya are in risk of: Typhoid, kidney stones, tuberculosis and many other diseases caused by malnutrition. Malaria is common to little children.

8 Importance of mosquito nets in the camp

9 Kakuma girl’s and boy’s primary school
The two schools that I took photos at are: Baar El Naam Boys Primary School and Jebel Mara Girls Primary School

10 Some students use stones as chairs instead of sitting down.

11 Here in Kakuma students have no chairs, books, and not enough teachers as you can see below.

12 Baar El Naam Girls Primary school.

17 South Sudan wars have impacted millions of people (mostly children and the elderly).
Tens of thousands of people have been killed. More than 1.5 million people have been displaced according to the UN (United Nations). Famine is predicted to kill more than 50,000 children by the end of the year if there is no solution. Most of these children are malnourished because they have no access to food, medicine, clean water, or security.

18 The importance of mosquito nets

19 Situation in some of the UN compounds within South Sudan

20 United Nation compound after heavy rains

21 What can we do to help? Children need specific treatments to survive
Severe acute malnutrition can be treated with specially formulated cost-effective therapies. Ready to use therapeutic food cost is only $0.35 per pack This peanut based paste can bring a young child back to normal weight within two to five weeks.

22 Therapeutic food continued
Therapeutic milk costs only $0.61 per sachet Rich in nutrients and easy to digest, therapeutic milk helps to stabilize a child suffering from severe malnutrition. Oral rehydration salts cost $0.06 per sach This simple solution of salts and minerals acts quickly to reverse the loss of essential bodily fluids.

23 This last slide is a video about situation now in South Sudan and famine prediction (which is already happening) All of the hard work to help these children survive is greatly appreciated.
