Overview

The Hidden Toll of Aid Cuts: A Humanitarian Worker's Testimony explores the human and institutional consequences of declining humanitarian funding, with South Sudan serving as the primary case study. The study combines personal testimony with analytical reflection to uncover how abrupt funding cuts, organizational restructuring, and job losses have deeply affected humanitarian workers-particularly national staff who form the foundation of aid delivery systems. These disruptions have not only jeopardized livelihoods but also undermined community trust, weakened program continuity, and eroded the social fabric within humanitarian settings.The findings reveal that the sudden loss of employment often leaves staff unprepared to navigate new realities such as unpaid bank loans, economic instability, and family disruptions. Beyond financial hardship, many workers face emotional exhaustion and social isolation as they attempt to reintegrate into communities after years of continuous professional engagement. Despite these difficulties, the study highlights strong adaptive capacities among humanitarian workers.
