Evolution, challenges and trends in internal displacement 2012, para. 63
Paragraph- Paragraph text
- The significant body of work in the area of gender and displacement, for example, has resulted in the recognition that displacement affects women and men differently and that, as a result, they may have specific protection and assistance needs. Yet, at the present juncture, it may be opportune to examine the level of impact on the ground of approaches in this area, and to consider alternative strategies for promoting the skills, resources and meaningful participation of internally displaced women, at all levels. For those reasons, the mandate will dedicate its 2013 report to the Human Rights Council to the issue of internally displaced women. Other issues also merit study, such as responses to internally displaced persons living outside of camp settings, and the specific protection and assistance needs of migrants affected by internal displacement in their host countries.
