The human rights of migrants on a 2035 agenda for facilitating human mobility 2017, para. 46
- Paragraph text
- Through resettlement programmes for refugees and the provision of humanitarian visas and other opportunities, it is well within the means of States to develop the mechanisms necessary for providing resettlement opportunities to refugees. A worldwide, well-governed distribution key that provides resettlement programmes for refugees and humanitarian visas and other opportunities will create a reliable long-term programme and ensure that a large number of refugees will seek resettlement rather than spend large sums of money and risk their lives and those of their children in smuggling operations. This would considerably reduce the market for smugglers, as well as the cost of refugee status determination procedures in the countries of destination.

- The Special Rapporteur will continue and enhance work carried out under the mandate to ensure that internally displaced persons are not left behind, including in the context of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals. While there is no specific target relating to internal displacement, the Special Rapporteur emphasizes that it is incumbent upon States experiencing internal displacement to establish national implementation programmes and plans that recognize that internally displaced persons are among the most vulnerable populations, who have multiple challenges and needs relating to development priorities — including in the areas of education, health, housing, land, livelihoods and poverty.

Roadmap for the next three years: thematic priorities of the new mandate-holder 2017, para. 40

- The Special Rapporteur will continue essential work to promote the development and implementation of legal and policy frameworks that are key to addressing internal displacement at all levels. While her predecessors played a leadership role in developing key international, regional and national frameworks, including the Guiding Principles on Internal Displacement and the IASC Framework on Durable Solutions for Internally Displaced Persons, the Special Rapporteur will prioritize implementation and operationalization of these standards, in close collaboration with national governments, regional mechanisms and other relevant stakeholders. She will advocate for standards to be translated into domestic law and policy and will assist States and other organizations through direct engagement, recommendations, awareness-raising and mobilization of support. In line with this, the mandate holder will continue to co-chair, with UNHCR, the Global Protection Cluster’s task team on law and policy.

Roadmap for the next three years: thematic priorities of the new mandate-holder 2017, para. 44
- Paragraph text
- At the national level, the Special Rapporteur has been deeply concerned by challenges experienced on the ground by humanitarian and development partners in the delivery of their essential services and assistance. These include challenges regarding access to persons and communities affected by internal displacement, due to security concerns or restrictions imposed by national governments, as well as by non-State armed groups and similar non-State actors, particularly in conflict situations. These obstacles seriously hamper their ability to provide essential and life-saving support. The Special Rapporteur will support and collaborate with United Nations agencies and bodies to advocate strongly for States to fulfil their obligations under international humanitarian and human rights law and standards to provide free and unfettered access to all communities in need of assistance. In this context, the Special Rapporteur would also like to give due attention to the role of non-State actors.

Roadmap for the next three years: thematic priorities of the new mandate-holder 2017, para. 45
- Paragraph text
- The Special Rapporteur is alarmed by the inadequate levels of funding available for the essential work of humanitarian and development partners and civil society, especially those on the ground. She applauds the international donor community for its essential funding of humanitarian and development responses globally. She urges donors to maintain and expand essential funding, while incorporating the provisions of the Grand Bargain on humanitarian financing, including flexibility of funding to facilitate new approaches to humanitarian crises, and new ways of working to provide greater attention to durable solutions to internal displacement. A shortfall of funding by some national governments to adequately address their internal displacement situations, as well as mismanagement of funds, poor governance and lack of accountability, have, in some cases, created overreliance on the international community, which is unsustainable in the long term.

Roadmap for the next three years: thematic priorities of the new mandate-holder 2017, para. 71
- Paragraph text
- The picture of internal displacement and the plight of internally displaced persons globally have offered little positive news in recent years. Massive and ongoing conflicts and displacement crises remain unresolved, and some have worsened or become entrenched. New conflicts have emerged and disasters struck, causing internal displacement numbers to rise relentlessly to record levels, which puts new pressure on an already overstretched international system of humanitarian response. Where conflicts have abated, internally displaced persons often do not achieve durable solutions for years after their displacement, if at all. The protracted nature of some conflicts and internal displacement all too often results in protracted humanitarian responses that fail to progress to recovery phases and towards durable solutions for internally displaced persons. In some cases, donor fatigue results in fewer resources being available to address expanding and complex caseloads of internally displaced persons.

Roadmap for the next three years: thematic priorities of the new mandate-holder 2017, para. 72
- Paragraph text
- Indeed, the numbers of internally displaced persons globally are in fact likely to be significantly higher than those publicly stated by the United Nations and other international organizations, which only take into account the available data on conflict-induced and disaster-induced displacement. It is estimated that millions more are displaced annually by other causes and drivers of displacement, including development projects and generalized violence. It must also be recognized that there is a need for greater research and more data on internal displacement as a result of slow-onset disasters and climate change, in order to reveal the current and future internal displacement trends and to better meet these challenges. The Special Rapporteur will continue to raise awareness of these neglected areas of internal displacement concern, as well as to advocate for national and international action to protect the human rights of persons who have been internally displaced as a result of all causes of displacement.

Roadmap for the next three years: thematic priorities of the new mandate-holder 2017, para. 36
- Paragraph text
- During his tenure, the former Special Rapporteur focused on durable solutions as an essential pillar of the responses to internal displacement from the very onset of displacement. As durable solutions remain elusive and many internally displaced persons globally still live in protracted displacement, the Special Rapporteur is convinced that durable solutions must remain high on the agenda if all stakeholders are to address internal displacement in a comprehensive way. Promoting durable solutions for internally displaced persons will continue to be a primary focus of the work of the mandate, and new initiatives towards this goal will include focused thematic attention to strengthening the participation of internally displaced persons in decisions affecting them, and to ensuring that internally displaced persons are included fully in transitional justice, the restoration of housing, land and property, and peacebuilding processes, which are essential components of durable solutions.

Roadmap for the next three years: thematic priorities of the new mandate-holder 2017, para. 67
- Paragraph text
- The Guiding Principles on Internal Displacement establish that the prohibition of arbitrary displacement includes displacement “in cases of large-scale development projects, which are not justified by compelling and overriding public interests” (principle No. 6). While recognizing the significant benefits that development projects often bring to societies more widely, especially those in less developed countries, questions remain as to the appropriate criteria and parameters to be applied in cases where development could lead to internal displacement. The Special Rapporteur will consult with global and national development actors, including United Nations bodies and agencies, and other stakeholders, with the objective of clarifying the practices employed and the criteria applied at all phases of development processes.

The right to adequate housing of persons with disabilities 2017, para. 31
- Original document
- Paragraph text
- Conflict and displacement also give rise to increased numbers of persons with disabilities. In Lebanon, the Syrian Arab Republic and the Gaza Strip, for example, conflict has contributed to high numbers of persons with disabilities. At the same time, in each of those places, adequate, accessible housing is extremely scarce, with housing stock having been destroyed and a lack of access or specific policies blocking access to the materials and resources necessary to rebuild homes. In refugee camps, poorly lit and remotely located latrines can lead to difficult access and experiences of sexual violence for women with disabilities, while crowded, narrow walkways can result in persons with visual impairments falling into open sewers.

Vulnerabilities of children to sale, trafficking and other forms of exploitation in situations of conflict and humanitarian crisis 2017, para. 37
- Paragraph text
- Living in limbo for long periods owing to delays or inefficiencies in or the absence of legal paths to migration may drive children who have depleted their financial resources to seek alternative ways, whether legal or illegal, to earn money either to survive or to continue their journeys. Moreover, when they are out of school for long periods, undernourished and without health care, impoverished and beset by mounting anxieties as uncertainty drags on, children become increasingly vulnerable and desperate.

Paragraph
Vulnerabilities of children to sale, trafficking and other forms of exploitation in situations of conflict and humanitarian crisis 2017, para. 38
- Paragraph text
- Children may be compelled to work to sustain themselves or provide for their families’ basic needs, especially where parents cannot work legally or simply cannot find work, legally or illegally. Iraqi and Syrian refugee children in Lebanon, for example, work in textile factories, construction or the food service industry, or as agricultural labour or street vendors in conditions amounting to forced labour. According to UNICEF, in Jordan, Lebanon and Turkey, shopkeepers, farmers and manufacturers hire Syrian refugee children because they can pay them a lower wage. Children, especially girls, are seen as less likely to be targeted by the police or prosecuted for illegal work than adults, making families more likely to send them to work. These types of child labour, which often mask other forms of exploitation, such as trafficking for forced labour, have dire consequences on children.

Paragraph
Vulnerabilities of children to sale, trafficking and other forms of exploitation in situations of conflict and humanitarian crisis 2017, para. 40
- Paragraph text
- Finally, the practice of “temporary” child or forced marriages is one of the dangerous coping mechanisms that girls face while in refugee camps in transit countries. Confronted with the economic burdens brought on by protracted displacement and limited or inexistent work opportunities, some refugee and migrant parents, and often children themselves, turn to those measures because they feel that they are the only option for safeguarding a child’s future or supporting a family’s immediate needs. For example, Syrian refugee girls are often forcibly married by their parents, who view such arrangements as a way of securing their daughters’ safety and ensuring the family’s livelihood through the dowry. Once married, those girls are likely to end up in a situation of sexual and domestic exploitation by a spouse whom they have followed abroad. The use of child and forced marriages to traffic girls into prostitution in another country is also common.

Vulnerabilities of children to sale, trafficking and other forms of exploitation in situations of conflict and humanitarian crisis 2017, para. 42
- Paragraph text
- Children are also coerced into criminal activities by adults or peers. For example, in refugee camps in Iraq and Lebanon, Syrian refugee children are trafficked for forced begging and selling items on the street. Moreover, trafficked children are often obliged or induced by their exploiters to commit crimes, such as pickpocketing, burglary and drug cultivation and transportation. On the route from the Horn of Africa to North-Eastern Africa, there have also been cases of trafficking for the purpose of organ removal. Although the extent of such crimes is unknown, children on the move travelling along these routes are also vulnerable to them.

They face threats and sexual violence when held, sometimes for months, in detention centres and in poor conditions, and are also abducted and sexually abused by groups pledging allegiance to ISIL.

Access to rights-based support for persons with disabilities 2017, para. 46
- Paragraph text
- Persons with disabilities belonging to groups that have been historically discriminated against or disadvantaged (such as indigenous peoples, ethnic minorities and persons living with HIV/AIDS) are disproportionately affected in accessing support arrangements and services. This also applies to migrants, persons living in conflict situations, internally displaced persons, refugees, asylum seekers, stateless persons and prisoners with disabilities, as humanitarian responses tend to overlook their support needs. Moreover, there is a strong link between belonging to a racial and cultural minority and experiencing coercion and institutionalization. Policies and programmes to ensure access to support must seek to overcome the impact of the multiple and aggravated forms of discrimination faced by persons with disabilities belonging to these groups in accessing support.

Working methods, thematic priorities and vision for a meaningful anti-torture advocacy 2017, para. 44
- Paragraph text
- So far, steps taken by the mandate to combat torture have focused almost entirely on States as potential perpetrators. Yet organized armed groups, private military and security contractors, mercenaries, foreign fighters and other non-State actors are increasingly engaged in conduct that adversely interferes with human rights, including the prohibition of torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment. For the absolute and non-derogable prohibition of torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment to retain its practical relevance, however, it must also provide for practical protection against violations on the part of non-State actors.

She will continue to participate in and actively contribute to the work of the Inter-Agency Standing Committee (IASC) as a Principal, and will work to provide it with guidance and support on the subject of internally displaced persons. To that end, she participated in her first IASC Principals’ meeting in Geneva on 6 December 2016, which will be followed by the IASC Principals’ retreat scheduled for 28 April 2017. Moreover, she took part in an IASC Working Group meeting held in Rome on 5 and 6 April 2017, in which she provided an update on activities under a joint project between the Special Rapporteur and the Joint IDP Profiling Service and in collaboration with a broad group of development, humanitarian and peacebuilding actors to operationalize the IASC Framework on Durable Solutions for Internally Displaced Persons. The project is aimed at developing tools, methodologies and guidance, for shared and comprehensive yet practical approaches to durable solutions analysis in displacement situations.

- The Special Rapporteur considers that internally displaced persons are frequently the least, the last and the lost in terms of national and international attention to their plight. It is a core priority of the mandate holder to promote visibility and effective protection for all internally displaced persons, including those who have become invisible or neglected, the most vulnerable, and those facing the greatest challenges resulting from their displacement. She will therefore take an impact-oriented and human rights-based approach to her work, focusing on building and strengthening constructive partnerships and collaborations with the objective of delivering effective assistance and protection on the ground. Her working methods will build on those established by her predecessors, while also emphasizing the identification of opportunities and entry points to engage directly and constructively with States and other stakeholders in emerging, ongoing and protracted internal displacement situations.

Compendium of good practices in the elimination of discrimination against women 2017, para. 86
- Paragraph text
- The Constitutional Court used its power to assess implementation of its own judgment, issuing two further orders on the rights of displaced women. In 2008, the Court handed down a decision that was considered a global pioneer in the treatment of sexual violence during internal armed conflict. It identified 10 risks that forcibly displaced women faced, including extreme risk of sexual violence, and 18 gender facets of displacement, including patterns of discrimination and violence. Accordingly, the Court ordered the Government to create and implement 13 programmes with a gender-sensitive approach, including violence prevention, the right to health and education and access to land, justice and reparations. The Court also took an intersectoral approach, highlighting heightened risks faced by girls, indigenous, black and community women leaders, and women with disabilities. The Court ordered the allocation of sufficient resources to guarantee implementation of the programmes, refusing to recognize lack of budget as valid justification for non-compliance.

Compendium of good practices in the elimination of discrimination against women 2017, para. 87
- Paragraph text
- In 2015, the Court issued an order declaring the persistence of failures in the assistance, protection and access to justice for women victims of sexual violence. That decision consolidated the constitutional framework to address the gendered impact of armed conflict on the forced displacement of women in the country. That protection framework — effectively transforming a government response to forced displacement using a gender perspective — is a pioneering example globally. That extraordinary achievement was partly due to the longstanding efforts by Latin American women’s movements to strengthen the capacities of the constitutional courts in the field of women’s rights.

- Paragraph text
- Furthermore, in many parts of the world, girls and young women with disabilities are often entirely excluded from the education system, or otherwise isolated from their communities at home or in institutions, and are without any access to sexuality education. The lack of equal access to inclusive and quality education affects, in particular, girls and young women with disabilities in conflict, post-conflict or other humanitarian situations, especially those who are refugees, internally displaced, migrants or asylum seekers; deprived of their liberty in hospitals, residential institutions, juvenile or correctional facilities; or homeless or living in poverty. Girls and young women in such situations are at heightened risk of being subjected to physical or sexual abuse and contracting sexually transmitted infections.

Vulnerabilities of children to sale, trafficking and other forms of exploitation in situations of conflict and humanitarian crisis 2017, para. 49
- Paragraph text
- The use of children by migrant smuggling networks also raises concerns about the misidentification of children. Within the northern triangle of Central America, children are frequently recruited by criminal gangs to work as migrant smugglers. The voluntary nature of their decision to take part in the smuggling of migrants across the Mexican border is doubtful. While interviews have exposed that, in some cases, children started voluntarily as human smuggling guides, once part of the cartels that control the smuggling routes, children were unable to leave their exploiters. Indicators of exploitation are often overlooked by State authorities, and children are not identified as child victims of trafficking.
