Internal Displacement: Global Overview of Trends and Developments in 2009
The Global Overview provides a comprehensive review of the 2009 situation of internal displacement, based on the information on over 50 countries brought together at www.internal-displacement.org. It aims to provide information on these different situations from regional and country-specific perspectives, while providing an analysis of the different situations of IDPs globally: those newly displaced, those living in continuing displacement, and those making progress towards durable solutions. The achievements and limitations of the responses to these situations are also examined.
