Save the Children and partners in South Sudan have reunited a record seven-thousand children with their families, allowing them to restart their lives after being separated by conflict. The child rights organisation has been reuniting children with families in the country for nine years.

Separated and unaccompanied children are more susceptible to violence, abuse and exploitation, which makes returning them to their parents an urgent priority.

According to the organisation, twenty-thousand unaccompanied, separated or missing children have been registered across South Sudan in the past nine years due to conflict within the country and from neighboring Sudan.
