Climate change and internal displacement 2011, para. 68
Párrafo- Paragraph text
- Unplanned influxes to urban settings present a number of potential risks. Because internally displaced persons are more likely to be "untitled", "unregistered", "unlisted" and "undocumented", inequalities which existed prior to a disaster may be reinforced after the disaster. As newcomers, internally displaced persons are likely to have less access to resources and livelihoods, to live in slum areas, and to be the potential targets of urban violence in these sites. Like other impoverished slum-dwellers they may be forced to live in hazard-prone locations such as low-lying areas and landfill sites, exposing them to risks to their physical safety and the risk of loss of housing and further displacement.
