Cross-border Migration Conference: Renk, Upper Nile State: 3-5 July 2012
Before the succession of the Republic of South Sudan from Sudan, nomadic communities used to freely move into South Sudan in Melut County with their cattle without restriction, and they enjoyed good relationships with the host communities. However, since independence, relationships have deteriorated. This conference brought together members of the different communities to better understand the reasons for conflict and secure an agreement to help prevent it.
