Timpir was conceived in 2004, under the name Panhom, with a vision to work with the people of South Sudan and the global community. Timpir aims to provide assistance and support in developing acceptable standards of education, health, social justice and equity for the people of South Sudan.
After 21 years of civil war in Sudan, the literacy rate in South Sudan is less than 30%, childhood mortality is 12% and more than 4 million Sudanese have been displaced from their homes. By involving local and international communities, Timpir strives to help the people of South Sudan achieve education, health care and human rights.
Timpir is an organisation that aims to work in all regions of South Sudan. While we have begun our work in the Athokthöu region, of northern Bahr El Ghazal our long term goal is to assist as many people living in South Sudan as possible.
