Paragraph
Paragraph text
Examples of positive governance structures include dedicated ministries, departments or units responsible for IDP issues and for ensuring that attention to IDPs is mainstreamed across relevant governmental and other bodies in areas such as education, employment, health, housing and development policy. Such bodies can work to ensure that greater attention to IDPs is paid by development actors, and should be appropriately resourced and funded. High-level leadership, for example specialist bodies under the office of the president or prime minister, can ensure that IDPs are given and maintain high priority at the national level and by development actors.
