Return and Reintegration Endline Survey in South Sudan's Former Breadbasket

The humanitarian situation in South Sudan remains tenuous, characterized by prolonged conflict, socio-political instability, and economic downturns. Within this context, the dynamics within the Central Equatoria region present a nuanced perspective, where climate-induced challenges, political strife, and societal shifts interact to shape the humanitarian landscape.

To gain comprehensive insights into the dimensions of return and reintegration, the International Organization for Migration’s (IOM) Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) unit executed a targeted study within Southern Central Equatoria State, as part of the Reconciliation, Stabilization, and Resilience Trust Fund (RSRTF) project in August 2023. This phase of the study involves a meticulous difference analysis between the baseline and endline, designed to illuminate the shifts in the region’s circumstances and provide clarity regarding its current trajectory. By drawing comparisons between these surveys, the intention is to furnish stakeholders with actionable insights that can inform future humanitarian and developmental strategies, ensuring their relevance and effectiveness.
