Human rights of internally displaced persons in the context of the Post-2015 development agenda 2015, para. 82
Paragraph
Paragraph text
National and international development actors must engage with IDPs at the earliest stages of displacement and recognize that, even in cases where early return to places of origin or integration in host communities is possible and desired, the challenges facing IDPs are likely to be considerable and complex, requiring medium and long-term development-centred solutions. It may take years to fully rebuild displacement-affected communities or to integrate them fully into new communities to the extent that they achieve conditions of full equality, access to services and participation in the economic, social and public and political aspects of society.
