The Kampala Convention: a road map for action 2014, para. 79
Paragraph- Paragraph text
- Much work, however, remains to be done to translate this important instrument into practice and to secure concrete improvements in the protection of and assistance to internally displaced persons. The Kampala Convention is a practical and important tool that addresses internal displacement at the international, regional and national levels. Political will is essential to the effective implementation of the Convention, which requires that the necessary budgetary and structural supports be mobilized. Timely support from the international community, including donors, United Nations agencies and other stakeholders, is critical to ensure that this objective is met. Indeed, the Convention itself was framed on the basis of a partnership between the African Union, international organizations and civil society.
