Published purpose

The goal of this project is to alleviate food shortages and stimulate economic growth in South Sudan through the construction of a series of rural roads. Specifically, expanding the road infrastructure in the country should facilitate access to markets for agricultural producers, help diversify the economy from oil dependency, reduce transports costs to enhance market competition, improve access to vulnerable communities and increase South Sudanese access to agricultural, health, education and other essential services. The project intends to build or rehabilitate roads in rural areas.
