A more systematized and equitable response to internally displaced persons outside camps 2012, para. 56
- Paragraph text
- While they represent the majority of internally displaced persons in the world, IDPs outside camps, and the host communities supporting them, are frequently unidentified and unassisted, both with respect to humanitarian support and durable solutions. IDPs living amongst host communities and in urban centres become mixed within the general local population, while others may seek shelter in remote and isolated areas. In both cases, they are difficult to identify and thus may become neglected IDPs. Although often assumed to have found their own solution, IDPs outside camps often experience a serious deterioration in their enjoyment of a series of human rights, including the right to adequate housing and protection from forced evictions, and to education and health, and are particularly at risk of marginalization, poverty, exploitation and abuse. If left unidentified and unassisted, they will de facto be excluded from assistance and protection measures, and durable solutions to their displacement, (e.g. in the context of national reconciliation and reconstruction processes); measures which could also alleviate pressures otherwise imposed on social structures within host communities.

- Paragraph text
- [In view of the above, the Special Rapporteur makes the following recommendations:] While practices to assess the needs and assist IDPs outside camp and their host communities already exist among some international and national actors, greater efforts and more comprehensive and predictable systems are required. Towards this end, humanitarian and development actors (including the donor community) at the national and international levels, and with the participation of civil society and affected communities, should: Promote, develop and implement strategies which extend the concept of assistance to include early recovery and development interventions in order to strengthen basic services and infrastructures of affected communities, and enhance the achievement of durable solutions for IDPs outside camps;

- [In view of the above, the Special Rapporteur makes the following recommendations:] Engage with affected States and other stakeholders in awareness-raising, capacity-building and the implementation of effective, comprehensive, disaggregated and timely data collection/profiling systems for IDPs outside camps. These should include methodologies appropriate to: early identification of IDPs and their needs immediately during or after a crisis so as to allow for follow up once IDPs have dispersed; and to when IDPs are already living among host communities in urban or other settings. Due safeguards must be in place to protect IDPs who may not wish to be identified due to security or other reasons. Rapid needs and protection assessment tools should include mechanisms to identify: IDPs outside camps and their needs; the reasons why they stay out of camps; the support provided by and the needs of host communities and host families; and mechanisms for vulnerability analysis in different settings;

Achieving durable solutions for internally displaced persons in urban settings 2014, para. 60
- Paragraph text
- Achieving durable solutions for internally displaced persons in urban settings brings with it a set of complexities that States, local authorities, humanitarian and development actors, civil society and internally displaced persons themselves still need to address in a comprehensive and coordinated manner. A one-size-fits-all approach has proved to be inconclusive and it is therefore the primary responsibility of Governments to ensure that, in any given context, durable solutions to urban displacement are found, with the full participation of those affected. Political will in any given context from all stakeholders involved is of the essence.

- Paragraph text
- Claiming this leadership role involves the development of coherent and holistic human rights-based approaches that require short-, medium- and long-term interventions. It is vital that, in the short term, the European Union step up search and rescue operations, further explore alternatives to detention, particularly for children, start providing more resettlement opportunities for people from the Syrian Arab Republic and other countries, in line with its share of global resources, and take stock of the failing Dublin logic and the systemic pressures it is creating.
