Again in the Sudan. livestock values have deteriorated by twentyfold in the last year. The final indication of famine is widespread migration. Particularly in rural Africa. where ancestral roots run deep. migration is a last desperate attempt to survive. In the Sudan. it is estimated that at least three million indigents are locked into an endless internal migration. The numbers of these migrants swell on a daily basis. and are checked only by the deadly scourges of starvation and malnutrition that linger on the heels of every nomadic group. We have had these indicators of famine in our sights for several years now. How have we responded to those signals?
