It is a narrative research design in which the data was collected using interviews with the respondents. The study also identifies the motivators of people to leave, such as lack of safety, fear of violations, and gender-based violence, in addition to the lack of services like health and education. It explores social media, communication apps, and networks as intervening factors that facilitate displacement. Finally, the research investigates the motivators and factors that played a role in the choice of the destinations of the respondents. (Less)
