Looking forward: addressing new challenges and consolidating gains 2011, para. 51
Paragraph- Paragraph text
- In line with Council resolution 14/6 and the established working methods of the mandate, the Special Rapporteur believes it is important to continue to emphasize and strengthen the mainstreaming of the human rights of internally displaced persons, including the development of normative frameworks, and to maintain and reinforce follow up and capacity building activities. These have been cornerstones of the mandate and have enabled it to contribute to both conceptual and normative advances, and to engage with relevant actors, and most notably, Governments, for the adoption and implementation of national policies, strategies and legislation in line with the Guiding Principles. As part of these capacity building efforts, the mandate will also continue to actively engage in workshops and training programs such as the San Remo Course on the Law of Internal Displacement which has proven to be an excellent vehicle to bring together Government authorities involved in IDP issues. The mandate will further seek to add a regional dimension to capacity building activities, by promoting region-wide approaches and mechanisms for different types of internal displacement situations, particularly where specific regional priorities are identified with regard to the human rights of internally displaced persons.
