CAMP COORDINATION AND CAMP MANAGEMENT
The Camp Coordination and Camp Management (CCCM) Cluster works to facilitate the effective and targeted delivery of life-saving services to IDPs in displacement sites and ensure that basic humanitarian living conditions are provided, while also building the foundations for voluntary return and recovery interventions where it is possible and safe to do so. IOM and UNHCR co-lead the CCCM Cluster, in coordination with ACTED. IOM continues to act as CCCM state focal point in Upper Nile, Jonglei, West Bahr el Ghazal and Warrap.
The information displayed in this map reflects IOM data gathered through continuous registration and verification activities. As the humanitarian situation remains highly unstable, data are subject to changes reflected in variation of IDP figures per site.
Site Development, Expansion and Improvement Malakal PoC Relocation to the new PoC site started on 31 May, and as of 6 June, 4,542 individuals have been safely transferred to the new PoC. The relocation of families to the new site was prioritized based on vulnerability, special needs and current living conditions. The new site is divided into three sectors and each sector is divided into blocks, so that people can be moved according to their family and neighbourhood structures. CCCM and Protection teams will jointly monitor each block, and regular meetings will be held with residents and community leaders, to explain to them the overall relocation plan and to ensure their collective participation throughout the process. Seven communal latrine blocks have been completed in sector three and work is ongoing in 2

IOM’s WASH team is increasing efforts to ensure adequate water, sanitation and hygiene services are available across all three sectors at new PoC site – 4,542 IDPs have been relocated to the new site as of 6 June. The construction of a water treatment plant is fast progressing and the installation of three water tanks, each with a capacity of 70,000 litres, is completed. IOM’s WASH team has taken steps to ensure that hygiene conditions are monitored constantly, and awareness messages reach vulnerable groups through house-tohouse visits.

As lead provider of WASH response at the Doro camp, IOM continues to meet the needs of the camp’s refugee population. All key water, hygiene and sanitation indicators are currently above the minimum standards. However, there remains a need to maintain these standards to prevent the outbreak and spread of waterborne diseases amongst the refugee population and surrounding host communities during the course of the rainy season.
