Governance structures for internal displacement 2015, para. 52
Párrafo- Paragraph text
- In some cases displacement can be predicted to result from actions taken by Governments, which should therefore put appropriate measures in place. For example, development projects have displaced millions of people in all regions. Development-induced displacement requires careful management and consultation with the internally displaced persons and other affected communities. However, this is rarely done, resulting in violations of human rights, including forced displacement and violence. International standards must be adhered to, notably the Indigenous and Tribal Peoples Convention, 1989 (No. 169) of the International Labour Organization, which requires obtaining the free, prior and informed consent of indigenous peoples regarding issues affecting them and their ancestral lands and territories. The basic principles and guidelines on development-based evictions and displacement (A/HRC/4/18, annex I) developed in 2007 by the Special Rapporteur on adequate housing as a component of the right to an adequate standard of living provide valuable guidance to assist States in the development of policy and legislation to prevent forced evictions.
