Access to justice and the right to food: the way forward 2015, para. 25
- Paragraph text
- While on the whole European countries have been more reluctant to accept the justiciability of economic, social and cultural rights, there have been some significant cases. For example, in the 2012 German Federal Constitutional Court judgment 1 BvL 10/10, the court ruled on whether cash benefits for asylum seekers provided by the Asylum Seekers Benefit Act were compatible with its Constitution. The court relied on earlier decisions to reiterate that the State is under an obligation to ensure a "dignified minimum existence", defined as a "comprehensive fundamental rights guarantee" which includes access to food, clothing, household items, housing, heating, hygiene health and social assistance to persons in need. The benefits awarded to the asylum seekers under the law in question were deemed insufficient to guarantee a dignified minimum existence. The court also reaffirmed that benefits must be calculated on the basis of "real and actual needs" and thus be measured realistically. The court noted that the benefits prescribed under the Asylum Seekers Benefit Act had not increased since 1993, even though the cost of living in Germany had risen by 30 per cent in that period. As a result, a number of provisions of the act were declared unconstitutional. The court ordered the enactment of new legislation that would ensure a dignified minimum standard of living and introduced a transitional scheme that would provide higher cash benefits in the interim.

Paragraph
Access to justice for people living in poverty 2012, para. 18
- Paragraph text
- Certain groups that suffer from structural discrimination and exclusion and are disproportionately represented among the poor, particularly ethnic and racial minorities, migrants and indigenous peoples, encounter additional barriers to accessing justice. Those difficulties are multiplied for women living in poverty, who experience compounded discrimination and disempowerment, not to mention financial constraints. Therefore, across different contexts, women living in poverty experience particular difficulties in accessing justice mechanisms and winning judicial recognition, action and enforcement for crimes, discrimination and human rights violations they are disproportionately subject to. Children are often denied the due process guarantees that they are entitled to on the same basis as adults, as well as additional protections that are necessary, in particular when they are particularly deprived or marginalized.

Paragraph
Access to justice for people living in poverty 2012, para. 31
- Paragraph text
- Often, there is no mechanism in place to review social policies or administrative decisions that have a major impact on the enjoyment of their rights by persons living in poverty. The lack of remedies for the negative impacts of social policy in the areas of health, housing, education and social security, or for administrative decisions relating to welfare benefits or asylum proceedings, often results in inability to seek redress in cases of violations of key human rights, such as the right to equality and non-discrimination and the right to social security. This is a major obstacle to accessing justice for persons living in poverty, who are disproportionately affected by those policies.

Paragraph
Access to justice for people living in poverty 2012, para. 62
- Paragraph text
- Lack of legal aid for civil matters can seriously prejudice the rights and interests of persons living in poverty, for example when they are unable to contest tenancy disputes, eviction decisions, immigration or asylum proceedings, eligibility for social security benefits, abusive working conditions, discrimination in the workplace or child custody decisions. Indeed, exclusion of certain categories of claims from the scope of free legal aid, such as housing or immigration proceedings, or exclusion from representation before quasi-judicial tribunals, such as welfare or employment appeal boards, discriminates against the poor. Moreover, the legal processes which relate to such civil matters are often extremely complex and their requirements onerous, creating insurmountable obstacles for those without the assistance of a lawyer, particularly if the State or other party enjoys such assistance. This is particularly troubling with respect to civil matters involving the most vulnerable groups, such as indigenous peoples, persons with disabilities and ethnic minorities, who often face serious deprivations and violations of their rights, and lack the means or ability to contest them.

In particular, those who are often excluded from education services, including women, are less likely to have received adequate schooling in the official or predominant language.

Paragraph
Access to land and the right to food 2010, para. 14
- Paragraph text
- Access to land and security of tenure are also essential for the ability of smallholders to achieve a decent standard of living. As noted above, the right to food imposes on States an obligation not to deprive individuals of access to the productive resources on which they depend. Where a community has settled on a piece of land and depends on that land for its livelihood, the obligation to respect the right to food thus requires that eviction of the community from that land be prohibited unless certain conditions are fulfilled. No eviction should take place that does not meet the criteria set out by the Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights in its general comment No. 7, on the right to adequate housing: forced evictions, and in the Basic Principles and Guidelines on Development-Based Evictions and Displacement. Those guidelines provide a practical tool to assist States and agencies in developing policies, legislation, procedures and preventive measures to ensure that forced evictions do not take place or, should prevention fail, to provide effective remedies to those whose human rights have been violated.

Paragraph
Achieving durable solutions for internally displaced persons in urban settings 2014, para. 21
- Paragraph text
- In the present report, the Special Rapporteur aims to provide guidance and raise greater awareness to build momentum on the complex issue of durable solutions for internally displaced persons in urban settings, focusing in particular on local integration. An urban context has various dimensions, including demographic, historical, environmental, economic, social and political aspects, which add to the complexity of responding coherently and sustainably to internal displacement. In addition, there are global mega-trends such as rapid urbanization, population growth and increased human mobility that make achieving durable solutions in urban settings one of the most complex and pressing challenges (see A/66/285, para. 28).

Paragraph
Achieving durable solutions for internally displaced persons in urban settings 2014, para. 32
- Paragraph text
- The lack of urban planning creates specific needs for internally displaced persons in urban informal settlements. Most urban environments already face difficulties relating to space management and shortage of land generally and for internally displaced persons in particular. Solutions relating to land and housing can be compounded by the destruction of houses or the deterioration of land caused by conflict or disaster. The complexity of the absence of land tenure systems and the lack of available and affordable land in urban areas and comprehensive urban planning may exponentially increase the difficulty of identifying long-term housing solutions for urban dwellers and urban internally displaced persons.

Paragraph
Achieving durable solutions for internally displaced persons in urban settings 2014, para. 35
- Paragraph text
- The absence of the rule of law is aggravated by ineffective local authority and policing. The lack of security of land tenure, extinct tenancy agreements and/or the absence of other forms of user rights further expose internally displaced persons to the risk of (forced) evictions and therefore to secondary displacement, which results in increased protracted displacement and significantly hampers durable solutions. Forced eviction of urban internally displaced persons, without providing alternative housing and without recourse to legal remedies, is an increasing phenomenon of urbanization and urban planning and upgrading initiatives. As noted above, urban planning must be combined with the durable solution needs of internally displaced persons and displacement-affected communities in urban areas.

Paragraph
Achieving durable solutions for internally displaced persons in urban settings 2014, para. 41
- Paragraph text
- Given that national censuses often omit informal settlements or internally displaced persons for lack of documentation, there may be little knowledge of the size or profile of the urban internally displaced population. National censuses, as conducted in Cote d'Ivoire in 2014, must be designed to identify internally displaced persons and their location. Experience shows, however, that, when confronted by outsiders asking questions, internally displaced persons feel threatened, especially if they fear eviction or if they are asked questions relating to the informal sector.

Paragraph
Achieving durable solutions for internally displaced persons in urban settings 2014, para. 47
- Paragraph text
- The municipal authorities of Kabul and the Government are working with the Japan International Cooperation Agency to develop an urbanization plan for the building of new housing units over the coming eight years. The expected benefits include strengthened municipal capacity to manage urban development and deliver services; improved institutional coordination and monitoring of key urban indicators; increased access to basic services for urban households; phased regularization of tenure for 50 per cent of households living in informal settlements; upgraded public services and facilities, including new urban area development; increased availability of affordable shelters, including an increase of 50 per cent in the number of housing units and of 30 per cent in the area of serviced land on the market, coupled with access to affordable finance; and an improved urban environment with green areas and open spaces. It is to be noted, however, that, while internally displaced persons are expected to benefit from the initiative, the plan has been criticized for ignoring the informal settlements in which many live. Furthermore, it may be difficult to relocate internally displaced persons and other groups living in informal settlements en masse.

Paragraph
Achieving durable solutions for internally displaced persons in urban settings 2014, para. 49
- Paragraph text
- While providing rental cash grants can contribute effectively to rebuilding capacity for internally displaced persons who have lost all their assets and provide them with some autonomy in their access to housing, some critics have stressed that the cash interventions would have been better had they been oriented to the market context, i.e. a commensurate increase in the housing stock to avoid "rehoused" internally displaced persons going to overcrowded areas, inhabiting unsafe and informal urban expansions or forming new camps. Criticism also included timing issues, given that the camps were closed before all the internally displaced persons concerned had been offered appropriate alternative housing. The uncertainty and lack of coordination could have been avoided with better preparedness and consultation with those concerned. On the positive side, the Special Rapporteur notes that the 16/6 project was not limited to cash interventions, but also included raising awareness of living standards, vocational training, livelihood programmes and enhanced access to basic services.

Paragraph
Achieving durable solutions for internally displaced persons in urban settings 2014, para. 50
- Paragraph text
- The Special Rapporteur emphasizes that, to offer durable solutions for internally displaced persons and the communities in which they live, cash interventions should be accompanied by income-generating or other livelihood activities, which also benefit the community, such as the development of small businesses and legal support in housing, land and property matters to facilitate length and security of tenure. In addition, those interventions should be accompanied by measures ensuring access to basic services for the benefit of the entire community. For example, in Bogota, the mayor's development plan for the city, which seeks to a create "a more humane Bogota", puts at its core the promotion of the human rights of victims of the armed conflict who fled to Bogota and the implementation of the Victims and Land Restitution Act adopted in 2011. Article 12 pertains to the implementation of the Act, article 21 relates to the housing programme for internally displaced persons and article 42 deals with how internally displaced persons will receive health services. Elected mayors of the various localities within Bogota have also initiated projects for the economic development of internally displaced persons living in those localities. In January 2014, the mayor of the Bosa locality developed a project to promote and assist entrepreneurial projects for vulnerable populations, specifically for internally displaced persons and persons with disabilities.

Achieving durable solutions for internally displaced persons in urban settings 2014, para. 51
- Paragraph text
- The Special Rapporteur also encourages initiatives aimed at including existing informal settlements in comprehensive urban planning schemes, thereby increasing security of tenure and adequate living conditions, including in terms of access to services. In the case of Somalia, national and local authorities, United Nations agencies and international non-governmental organizations worked together to devise a comprehensive urban development plan to address the precarious living conditions of internally displaced persons in Boosaaso. Of the inhabitants of Boosaaso, 1 in 4 is internally displaced, with most residing in cramped and unsanitary squatter camps on the peripheries of the city. The private owners of the land on which displaced persons were living forced them to pay high rents, offered no protection from fires that frequently destroyed large sections of the settlements and forbade the construction of any sanitary infrastructure such as wells or latrines.

Paragraph
Achieving durable solutions for internally displaced persons in urban settings 2014, para. 52
- Paragraph text
- The United Nations Human Settlements Programme, along with international non-governmental organizations, suggested a plan based on principles of sustainable urbanization, slum prevention and incremental upgrading. Aspects of the intervention included what is termed a "build back better approach" to emergency response from fires, which took fires as an opportunity to introduce firebreaks and mobile shelter kits made of metal poles and fire-retardant canvas to prevent the spread of future fires. The intervention also involved disaster-preparedness programmes. Furthermore, a simple training guide for upgrading temporary settlements, aimed at municipal officials and community leaders, was developed to allow for a swift transfer of the basic skills needed and to empower displaced people to initiate improvements themselves. This intervention halved the number of families affected by fires.

- In addition, a campaign was launched regarding the rights of internally displaced persons to land tenure in Boosaaso. Consequently, landlords entered into an agreement with local authorities and representatives of various displaced groups, which opened the door to upgrading the settlement and included simple principles preventing ad hoc evictions. The campaign mobilized local authorities and traditional/religious leaders to define what would no longer be acceptable in the community. It focused on the positive contribution of internally displaced persons to the local economy and the impact on the host community of unhygienic conditions and heightened fire risks.

- Other initiatives involve camp formalization. In some instances, internally displaced persons have lived in camp settings for years and created ties among one another, to the land that they occupy and to the neighbourhood communities. In such cases, camp formalization through local integration may be the best solution. This presupposes, however, that the authorities concerned solve the land tenure issue, among others.

- Paragraph text
- In some cases, such as in Colombia, there are hundreds of associations of internally displaced persons, representing various communities of origin, women's groups or indigenous groups, among others. The Government has set up a consultative process with those associations that reaches out to such groups. The Government of Georgia has also engaged in widespread consultations with internally displaced persons (see A/HRC/26/33/Add.1). While not flawless, such processes represent a meaningful effort by Governments to consult internally displaced persons. Consultations can affect the attitude of the Government towards such persons, as was the case in Afghanistan. For example, until 2013, the authorities had not considered internally displaced persons to be permanent citizens of Herat, but, following the consultations, the political elites of the city now acknowledge the permanent settlement of those persons in the city. In a major breakthrough, the Government is now considering upgrading and regularizing the Maslakh settlement. Measures aimed at achieving durable solutions for internally displaced persons can therefore yield positive results when internally displaced persons are treated not as objects, but as active participants in the search for, and implementation of, durable solutions.
