  3. Who is an IDP? Internally displaced persons are persons or groups of persons who have been forced or obliged to flee or to leave their homes or places of habitual residence, in particular as a result of or in order to avoid the effects of armed conflict, situations of generalized violence or natural or human-made disasters, and who have not crossed an internationally recognized state border.“

  4. Putting into context Why is it difficult to identify who an IDP is? • Multi-causality of internal displacement in Afghanistan. • Internal displacement in rural and urban contexts. • Internal displacement in the context of refugee returns and migration.

  5. When does displacement end? A durable solution is achieved when internally displaced persons no longer have any specific assistance and protection needs that are linked to their displacement and can enjoy their human rights without discrimination on account of their displacement.
