Repatriation Movements

Repatriation movements refer to the process of returning individuals to their country of origin or native land. These movements can occur voluntarily, such as refugees or expatriates choosing to go back home, or involuntarily, due to policies, conflict, or economic changes. Repatriation can be complex, involving legal, logistical, and social considerations, and aims to restore individuals to their community or country. The goal is often to provide safe, voluntary, and dignified returns, supporting individuals’ reintegration into society after periods of displacement or residence abroad.
