Paragraph
Paragraph text
The Representative is concerned that there are several States that host large numbers of internally displaced persons but do not recognize them as such - sometimes going to great lengths to re-label the internally displaced as "mobile and vulnerable populations", "dislocated people" or "internal migrants" despite international recognition of the description of internally displaced persons in the Guiding Principles (see above, paragraphs 11-14).
