Armed non-State actors and the protection of internally displaced people

Conference report on armed non-State actors and the protection of internally displaced people

IDMC and Geneva Call organised in March 2011 an expert conference in Geneva, Switzerland, which explored different aspects of the complex interface between armed non-State actors (ANSAs) and IDPs. The conference report details the findings of this event, during which current and former ANSAs and members of civil society from areas undergoing internal displacement expressed their views and perspectives, and humanitarian organisations and academics shared their experience and presented the findings of their academic and field research. The report also presents a series of recommendations to enhance the protection of IDPs in situations where ANSAs are active.
