The second chapter, Preamble on Sudanese Migration Background, briefly introduces Sudan’s migratory and political history. Indeed, the country has a long history of internal and international displacement, as well as inward and outward migration, and it can be conceived as a source, destination and transit hub. The complex, overlapping, and historical occurrences contributing to strong migration patterns include ethnic, military, and religious conflicts, natural disasters, poverty, limited civil and human rights, geographical location and tensions between city centres and peripheries. Over time, the development and collision of these factors have fuelled emergency scenarios and significant population movements. The chapter also introduces the 2019 Great Revolution as a pivotal moment in recent history, highlighting the social process that led to the ousting of President Omar al-Bashir and the end of his thirty-year dictatorship. The nationwide protests that brought millions to the streets demanding urgent change, while not this research’s central focus, provide valuable insight into Sudanese migration issues.
