Paragraph
Paragraph text
The nexus between conflict and internal displacement is clear and it is evident that the most important measures that States can take to reduce internal displacement are measures to prevent conflict before it takes place and resolve ongoing conflicts. Numerous global leaders recognized the centrality of political will to effectively prevent and end conflicts, address root causes, reduce fragility and strengthen good governance; yet brutal conflicts continue to break out and fuel massive increases in internal displacement.
