Outcomes and commitments on internal displacement of the World Humanitarian Summit 2016, para. 20
Paragraphe- Paragraph text
- [Putting the most vulnerable people first was a major Summit theme, with the objective of leaving no one behind, which was one of five key responsibilities identified in line with the 2030 Agenda. World leaders and other participants at the Summit agreed to "reach the furthest behind". It was made clear that this category includes displaced people globally. The Special Rapporteur was one of the high-level leaders at the round table in which core commitments that are directly relevant to internally displaced people were addressed. These are:] Core commitment 1. Commit to a new approach to addressing forced displacement that not only meets immediate humanitarian needs but reduces vulnerability and improves the resilience, self-reliance and protection of refugees and internally displaced persons. Commit to implementing this new approach through coherent international, regional and national efforts that recognize both the humanitarian and development challenges of displacement. Commit to take the necessary political, policy, legal and financial steps required to address these challenges for the specific context.
