The improving resilience in South Sudan (IRISS) project – funded by DFID’s building resilience and adaptation to climate extremes and disasters (BRACED) programme – sought to increase resilience to drought and floods for targeted communities, especially women and girls, while also contributing to evidence-based learning related to developing climate change resilience in complex and conflict contexts.  

After just over three years in operation, the BRACED-IRISS project came to an end on 30 June, 2018. This article summarises the main lessons from the project.
