Sainte-Livrade-sur-Lot (French pronunciation: [sɛ̃t livʁad syʁ lɔt], literally Sainte-Livrade on Lot; Languedocien: Senta Liurada) is a commune in the Lot-et-Garonne department in south-western France.

The troops, along with their families, were housed at camps designated as Centre d'accueil des Français d'Indochine, of which Sainte-Livrade-sur-Lot hosted the largest of three.

The camp was converted into barracks from a World War II munitions factory, in which residents lived in rudimentary conditions with a government sponsored hospital and school.

[5] The population of the camp declined as children of the refugees moved away from the area after they grew up, due to limited education and employment opportunities.

As the war in Indochina was unpopular, the French government did not do much to improve the lives of the community's people until recently, when plans were underway to convert the barrack-like homes of the camp to social housing.
