The Eastern Route, which runs from the Horn of Africa to the Arabian Peninsula, in particular to Saudi Arabia, has long been the most relevant migratory corridor in terms of volume and characteristics in the East and Horn of Africa region. Mobility along this route is mixed in nature, with different categories of people on the move such as refugees and economic migrants, and is not without significant hardships and challenges.
