Call for Papers-Return and Reintegration of Internally Displaced Peoples (IDPs)

(Forced Migration Review)
April 19, 2004


In collaboration with OCHA’s IDP Unit and UNDP’s Bureau for Crisis Prevention and Recovery (BCPR) the August 2004 issue will focus on the return and reintegration of IDPs.

The issue will focus on lessons learned from recent return movements as well as policy issues relating to the creation and maintenance of enabling environments for sustainable returns. It will also include some case-studies of recent or current returns. Among the topics that the guest editors would like addressed in the special issue are:

  • re-establishment of livelihoods
  • restitution of lands and property
  • reconciliation and peace building
  • the rule of law and return
  • protection of IDPs after return
  • psychosocial needs and rehabilitation
  • special needs of women and children
  • capacity building among local authorities

These topics can be presented either as lessons learned from recent experience or as discussion papers. Papers having relevance to field practice, charting innovations which could be translated into implementation, would be preferred. The guest editors may also consider additional topics.

Widening of discussion to include refugees is welcomed as are papers that look at how post-conflict communities ‘rebuild’ and can be strengthened and supported to sustainably reintegrate those coming back (refugees, IDPs and ex-combatants).

Deadline for submissions 15 May 2004
