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.

Junior Civil War Reinactment At GCV

Junior Civil War Reinactment At GCV
There was some kind of planned Civil War Games for kids going on at the Genesee Country Village when I was there last week. There may have been some kind of organization in the activity, but I was not privy to it. The wooden rifles made an interesting "click" when fired.

I really enjoyed watching these kids! Their "reinactiment" was a lot more interesting to see than some of the more professional-looking adult versions.
