The purpose of this study is to assess the demobilization and reintegration of ex-combatants in Dansharnresettlement project. It is to make impact assessments on the ex-combatants’ economic independence andrntheir subsequent acceptance by the host community. The study was highly important to examine the potentialrnrisks of the resettlement, which is taken as a means to reintegrate ex-combatants, and draw possible lessonsrnto prevent these risks. To meet the objective of the study, both primary and secondary data were used. Forrnthe primary data, key informants were interviewed and questionnaires were distributed to randomly selectedrn120 settlers and focus group discussions were undertaken. The data were analyzed using descriptive andrnqualitative techniques.rnThe findings of the study clearly show that the settlers are reintegrated economically, socially and politicallyrnin a sustainable way. The economic impact assessment of the program revealed that the settlers werernprovided land for farming and housing facility. They also had access to credit, pension scheme, and otherrntransitional subsistence support such as farming tools, seeds and other extension packages. Like wise, thernsettlers are now economically reintegrated, having the capacity to produce sesame for cash and sorghum forrnfood. Livestock breeding and off-farm activities also helped them to have sustainable livelihood in the area.rnThe social impact assessment also indicates that settlers have got sufficient social services, that are access tornhealth, potable water and education which are comparatively adequate to support the settlers. The study alsornshows that settlers have close relationships with host community and high involvement in political and socialrnaffairs of the society.rnTherefore, it is inferred that, existence of sufficient social infrastructure, access to credit and market, withrnpotential area for farming and livestock are observed to be potential strengths that enabled settlers to bernsuccessful. On top of that, the close relationship with the host community and among themselves encouragedrnthe achievement of sustainable reintegration.rnThe study concludes that resettlement scheme can be an effective way of reintegrating ex-combatants. Forrnthe success of such type of resettlement, it needs to be guided by well-organized documents, committedrngovernment, motivated staff and willing beneficiaries. It also should be based on adequate and reliablernsocio-economic study with proper implementation and monitoring.rnOn top of that, the consent of the host community with the above mentioned factors is decisive for successfulrnreintegration of ex-combatants.rnThe study then recommends that clear and consistent orientation on benefits and modalities of reintegrationrnshould be stated appropriately. It also recommends better training on agricultural extension, and veterinaryrnservices should be realized
