An Uncertain Return
Report on the current and potential impact of displaced people returning to southern Sudan.

 Ockenden

Returning populations in Sudan, many of whom have been displaced for decades, may provide the key to sustaining peace. This paper by Ockenden examines a number of features relevant for all returns, while also pointing to the uniqueness of each return situation. The paper examines the effects of returns on physical resources and in particular on the opportunities for returnees’ and stayees’ livelihoods; how stayees perceive returnees; changes in community dynamics and the potential fault lines between those who stayed, those who fought and those who left. It focuses on Ockenden’s southern programme areas of Maridi, Ibba and Ezo counties.
