This article tells the story of the dramatic return to Sudan of 150,000 men, women and children from the Itang refugee camp in Ethiopia. These people were the great sacrifices of the Sudanese civil war, a status that the international community was slow to recognize and therefore to help as such. The purpose of this article is to discuss the role of politics in protecting refugees and organizing aid in the context of civil war. The information presented here comes from both field research carried out during the three months of repatriation and written reports on the period.
