In
collaboration with OCHAs IDP Unit and UNDPs 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).
