Evolution, challenges and trends in internal displacement 2012, para. 66
Paragraph- Paragraph text
- At the same time, internal displacement remains one of the world's most significant human rights and humanitarian challenges, as millions of people continue to be internally displaced every year by conflict, violence, human rights violations, disasters and development projects. Megatrends, such as rapid urbanization, human mobility and population growth, and other factors, such as increased natural disasters and climate change (which exert social and political pressures, and increase competition over scarce resources and livelihoods) are expected to further affect the magnitude and patterns of internal displacement in the future. In this context, responses to internal displacement situations will require that States and international and civil society actors be ready to adopt comprehensive frameworks which address all types and stages of internal displacement, address new issues or areas in which responses need to be strengthened, and pay particular attention to prevention and durable solutions strategies.
