No voluntary repatriation to Sudan has been recorded since March 2019 (repatriation of 1,869 individuals through the Tina border crossing point in North Darfur after the signing of the 2017 Tripartite Agreement between UNHCR and the Governments of Sudan and Chad).
UNHCR and its partner Africa Humanitarian Action (AHA) implemented three community-based support projects encompassing the construction of two new primary schools (in Kutum and Tina localities), one health centre (in Kutum) as well as the refurbishment of six primary schools and of three health centres which were provided with educational and medical equipment and supplies in Kutum, Tawilla, Kebkabiya and Um-Baru localities. These implemented community-based support projects aimed at supporting peaceful coexistence among communities and a sustainable reintegration of returnees in their land of origin via the provision of access to basic services.
UNHCR carried out a few border monitoring and assessment missions to refugee return areas jointly with COR, SMOH, AHA, Voluntary Return and Reintegration Committee (VRRC) and State water and health sectors to assess gaps and needs for basic services and community support projects (for schools, dams, rural hospital, etc.) in 44 locations.
