Dear All,

 I signed a contract with UNFPA to undertake a set of key activity outlined TOR, which was prepared by MOC Team Leader and endorsed by Census Operations Manager. 

The activates stated in the TOR related to  and administrate work which supposed to be provided to the Monitoring team form Juba town.

I signed UNFPA contract on May 19th  and then attended orientation sessions facilitated by MOC Team Leader and member of International Consultancy Group on the objective of the monitoring mission, activities to be performed by all member of the monitoring team that required logistical or administrative support, time table of the field based activities, MOC and International Consultancy Group.

On May 23rd  I left Khartoum to Juba with specific set of activities to be accomplished in collaboration with UNFPA Census Support Office in Juba and The Head of MOC Office in Juba.

In Juba Town following activities were successfully completed:

1-Meeting was organized with UNFPA Census Operation Manager to discuss the dispatch plan of Satellite phone to the National and International Monitor who posted in south Sudan states. I as advised by the Operational Manger to handover the Satellite phones to UNFPA Logistical Officer who in turn will take full responsibility to send them to monitor through WFP flights.

2-Due to lack of proper coordination between MOC and State Officials in southern Sudan regarding the posting of 130 National Monitor in the localities of the 10 states of southern Sudan, the Government of south Sudan questioned the role of all monitor, restrict their movement, and requested all National monitors who were posted in localities to travel back to Khartoum. Meeting was organized with the Head of MOC for South Sudan to explore ways and means to facilitate the movement of National and International Monitor in South Sudan. Letters were prepared addressing Governors and Commissioner of states to provide full support to the monitoring team posted at the states and regional level. Letters were dispatched by Head f MOC Office for south Sudan.

3- On 24 May, The Census Operation Manager of UNFPA Office in Juba advised me to leave to Khartoum as soon as possible due to misunderstanding of some senior government official to my role as  I came at the same time with National Monitor who posted in localities level. 

4-On May 25th  I traveled back to Khartoum and fully assigned to facilitate the logistical support required by all monitors who posted in south Sudan from Khartoum in addition to facilitation of travel back of all monitor to Khartoum and back to their home country. Moreover I was requested to organize the Monitor working group in Khartoum specifically, to handle all logistical tasks related to the transportation, accommodation, food and refreshment of 70 National and International Monitors for 7 days.
