Sudan — Baseline Assessment — Permanent Returnees — Round 6

DTM estimates a total number of 1,302,938 permanent returnees from internal displacement (193,388 households) in 773 locations, in 71 localities, in 11 states across Sudan. Reporting on returns in a chronological manner, the data indicates that between 2003 and 2010, 168138 returnees (13%) returned to their location of origin. The highest proportion of returns (265,589) occurred between 2011 to 2015 (20% of the total count) – reflective of a mass influx of individuals returning to their habitual residences at the end of the Darfur crisis. This was followed by 137,383 returnees (11%) in 2016, 195,637 returnees (15%) in 2017, and 159,648 returnees (12%) in 2018. The lowest proportion of returnees returned in 2019 (64,592) and 2020 (57,097), representing 5% and 4.4% respectively. Finally, in 2021 and in 2022, field teams identified 71,905 (6%) and 182,949 (14%) permanent returnees respectively.
