Governance structures for internal displacement 2015, para. 68
Paragraph- Paragraph text
- A joint study on internal displacement in the region of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) found that in decentralized States, "coordination should be vertical as well as horizontal, in the sense that it should not only facilitate decision-making among the various relevant actors at the central level but also ensure that clear guidance, follow-up actions, and information flow smoothly between those actors and regional and/or local coordination bodies". National authorities must ensure that local authorities have the necessary resources and expertise to function efficiently and are not overburdened during the response.
