The project has received support from the Government of Norway for the construction of a permanent South Sudan National Archive Building. The Norwegian Government and the Prince Claus Foundation also provided funding for the renovation of a temporary building in Munuki, Juba, to provide temporary accommodation for the Archive. The construction of the new archives building was scheduled to begin in July 2014 and finish in July 2015. The planned construction of a permanent archive was disrupted by instability in South Sudan.
