	What is a People Group
		At the same time there may be different peoples who speak the same language but distinguish themselves because of different histories, other factors causing enmity, an endogamous marriage pattern, differing political alliances, or separate self-name or loyalty to a different common ancestor or leader of a common source people group in history.
		Thus, a group of separate peoples who speak the same language might need to be identified separately for strategy purposes, because the other factors of self-identification and social organization for internal communication would keep the gospel from naturally being spread from one group to the other even though they speak the same language.
		In other cases, the self-identification of the specific people group might be flexible enough that they would freely exchange cultural knowledge across their other ethnic factors so that the gospel could spread from one group to the other.

		The indigenous Beja people are nomads who have inhabited the semi-desert area in the Red Sea coast of Sudan and the hilly country behind it for thousands of years.
		The Beja Congress was, therefore, part and parcel of the NDA’s opposition to the regime, thus believing in political and armed struggle to topple the regime and establish a ‘modern Sudanese state based on democratic rudiments, justice, equality and the restoration of usurped rights to the poor and the marginalised population of the country’.
		Beja families have been working in the ports as labourers for generations, but in recent job losses, Government figures say up to 28,000 of them — after the mechanisation of the port — have compounded feelings of anger towards a central Government, which is releasing large amounts of oil to the world from here.

		This paper examines the transformation of the Beja livelihood system in recent years in response to changing external circumstances, and charts how coping mechanisms have evolved to become adaptive strategies.
		In particular, the paper examines the abandonment of mobility and the migration of Beja pastoralists to urban centres in Halaib Province itself and to Port Sudan, and analyses the evolution of Beja livelihoods in the city and the nature and the extent of the linkages that people maintain with the rural areas.
		A brief critique of international development support to Beja pastoralists after the major droughts in the 1980s is given, followed by a presentation of a number of key policy options, arising from the analysis, which merit consideration by the development community.
