<p>The UK remains committed to reducing conflict in South Sudan. We support the ongoing peace process, including by providing funding through the Conflict Stability and Security Fund to region led monitoring bodies – the Revitalised Joint Monitoring and Evaluation Commission (R-JMEC) and the Ceasefire and Transitional Security Arrangements Monitoring and Verification Mechanism (CTSAMVM). We also provide support to civil society to help hold the parties accountable to the peace deal, and to the South Sudan Council of Churches for their dialogue and reconciliation work. In the coming months we will launch a Peacebuilding Opportunities Fund to foster innovative and sustainable peacebuilding initiatives, primarily at the local level.</p>
