The first official repatriations of refugees to South Sudan Soldiers from the Sudanese People's Liberation Army (SPLA) escort cattle of the Dinka Bor through Juba. Twelve thousand Dinka Bor and their half million head of cattle, are returning home from Western Equatoria, where they had been displaced for the past 14 years. Women, children and the elderly are being transported by barge on the Nile from Juba to Bor. © UNHCR/H.Caux/December 2005 One year after the signing of the peace agreement that ended 21 years of civil war in South Sudan, a group of Sudanese refugees crossed back over the border from Kenya to their homeland on 17 December, 2005 on UNHCR's first official repatriation convoy. Although many Sudanese refugees have returned by themselves over the past year, this group from north-west Kenya's Kakuma camp, were the first to return home with UNHCR's assistance. To help refugees restart their lives, UNHCR and partner agencies provided returnees with sleeping mats, kitchen sets, plastic sheeting, jerry cans, as well as six weeks of food supplies. In other parts of South Sudan, the UN refugee agency has drilled wells, built schools and roads and repaired health centres – all activities meant to benefit entire communities and not just returning refugees. This first refugee return is a small but very important step in helping the estimated 350,000 Sudanese still living in exile in neighbouring countries as well as the approximately four million internally displaced people return home.
