South Sudan’s peacebuilding dilemma: navigating the final stretch of R-ARCSS and beyond

Abstract

This policy brief seeks to elevate key issues, which are deemed to be hampering security sector reforms, economic progress, coupled with deliberate unwillingness to implement the R-ARCSS. Finally, the threats of renewed violence, frequent inter-communal conflicts, resources mismanagement, and public frustration may potentially lead to further chaos. As such, urgent action is required to mitigate ignition of deeper instability.
