Because of famine, underpayment and genocide, Rwandans moved to neighboring countries such as DROC (Zaire), Tanzania, and Uganda for better opportunities for themselves. Quarrels between different agricultural groups led original residents leave To other countries also, and later many Rwandans were permitted permanent residents of Uganda. However in 1994, Rwandans were encouraged to flee their homes again, because of violence. About 2 million more escaped to the same neighboring countries. In 1996, Rwandans in Burundi were forced to move back to their home country, and after the Civil War about 1 million more Rwandans were sent back to Rwanda. Most displaced people stayed in DROC.

When the Rwandese migrated to near by countries seeking refuge, they stayed close to Rwanda so they could move back after the civil discourse had settled.

The Rwandese refugees only fled to near by countries, probably because of the fear of too many different cultures as they moved farther from their home as well as the hope that they would move back soon.

Zaire/present-day DROC is a prominent example of a place that provided asylum for Rwandese refugees.

The genocide of the Tutsi people in Rwanda acted as a leading push factor for their migration to neighboring countries.

The famine caused by the genocide in Rwanda casted the Rwandese people to migrate, making it a forced migration.

Each Rwandese person that migrated to neighboring countries for asylum to escape the genocide was a refugee.

Due to a multitude of push factors (safety, famine, poverty), Rwandans migrated to neighboring countries. Some Rwandans remained in the countries they migrated to as permanent residents. Others waited for economic stability or a decrease in violence from the genocide before returning to Rwanda.

Most Rwandan refugees fled to neighboring countries, particularly Zaire (present-day DROC). One reason they may have moved only a short distance, despite the rampant violence in Rwanda, is because they hoped for a potential return to Rwanda.

In this particular case, some Rwandans may have migrated longer distances to big-city destinations, possibly for better opportunities, although these were likely isolated cases within the context of the events of the 1990s.  Considering the prevalent political and economic struggles in Rwanda at the time—combined with the significant humanitarian crisis— most Rwandans would have opted for refuge in nearby countries rather than travel long distances to big cities.

There wasn’t much urbanization to begin with in 1990s Rwanda, mainly due to a period of colonialism and Belgian control, as well as economic and political instability. Rwandans migrated from their home country mainly due to genocide and famine, the resulting migration of which can be construed as an act of necessity or desperation (forced migration).
