Achieving durable solutions for internally displaced persons in urban settings 2014, para. 61k
Paragraph- Paragraph text
- [Durable solutions remain available options for internally displaced persons, including those in urban settings. The very nature of urban displacement, however, tends to lend weight to local integration as the viable choice preferred by internally displaced persons in urban areas. Informed by the Guiding Principles on Internal Displacement and the Framework on Durable Solutions for Internally Displaced Persons, the Special Rapporteur reiterates his recommendations made in his previous reports (A/HRC/19/54 and A/68/225) and adds the following recommendations to:] [National and municipal authorities] Propose settlement elsewhere, accompanied by specific measures, as part of the policy solution package available for internally displaced persons. If possible, local governments, with the support or advocacy of international agencies, should designate resettlement sites as part of disaster preparedness plans or work, taking into account future plans for urban growth, given that resettlement sites, even those deemed "temporary", are almost never temporary and influence urban growth;
