2. Juba must plant trees or continue to sweat! A conflict sensitivity lens to Juba’s heat crisis, is a February 2026 blog by Wani James Henry, a natural resources and sustainability expert, and The Conflict Sensitivity Resource Facility (CSRF), highlighting the significance of trees in Juba beyond the provision of shade and air quality, but as cultural, socio-economic and political meeting spaces over tea and coffee. The blog underscores the urgent need for Juba City to adopt a conflict-sensitive greening policy in the face of a looming climate crisis, and can be found online at: https://csrf-southsudan.org/juba-must-plant-trees-or-continue-to-sweat-a-conflict-sensitivity-lens-to-jubas-heat-crisis/
