“…Using the principle of non-refoulement would ensure that displaced migrants could not undergo involuntary resettlement to an area where their security was at risk (Mooney 2000). In fact, involuntary resettlement poses a problem as such.…”

Between 2006 and 2010, thousands of Karimojong women and children moved to Kampala in an attempt to escape misery and violence at home. In 2007 the Ugandan government began to evict these people from the capital and resettle them back in Karamoja. This paper is based on data from a ten-month ethnographic project with Karimojong mothers living in the Kisenyi slum of Kampala and residents within Napak and Moroto districts, to illuminate migrants' experiences with the resettlement campaign. I address three major fl aws with the campaign: ignorance of living conditions and violence in Karamoja; the overall dehumanizing impact on the Karimojong; and inadequate programme design, resources and infrastructure.

“…Son olarak Antalya'ya gelen bazı göçmenlerin 1980'lerin ortalarından itibaren Doğu ve Güneydoğu Türkiye'de bölgesel iç çatışmaların tırmanmaya başlaması nedeniyle köken bölgedeki güvenlik sorunlarından kaynağını alan ülke içi yerinden olma hareketlerini deneyimlediklerine, ek olarak kan davaları ve aile içi çatışmaların da yine ölümcül sonuçları nedeniyle zorunlu göçte etkili olduğuna işaret etmek gerekmektedir. Bu tür göçe katılanlar önceki çalışmalarda işaret edilen (İlkkaracan ve İlkkaracan, 1999;Mooney, 2000;Yüceşahin ve Özgür, 2006) fiziki güvensizlik ve maddî yoksunluk koşulları nedeniyle göç etmiştir.…”

Bu araştırma, göçmenlerin görüş ve deneyimlerinden yararlanılarak, Türkiye'nin Doğu ve Güneydoğu bölgelerinden Antalya'ya gelen göçmenlerin göç sürecini, sosyo-mekânsal bütünleşme ve aidiyet düzeylerini ve göçmenlerin geri dönüş eğilimlerini belirlemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Araştırma, Antalya'nın sosyo-ekonomik gelişmişlik düzeyi farklı üç mahallesinde amaca yönelik ve kartopu örnekleme yöntemleri kullanılarak ulaşılan on beş Doğu ve Güneydoğu Anadolu kökenli göçmen ile yapılan derinlemesine görüşmelere dayanmaktadır. Çalışmanın bulgularına göre, katılımcıların göç sürecini başlatan ve devam ettiren en önemli faktör, sosyomekânsal bir sermaye olan göçmen ağlarıdır. Çalışmanın en önemli bulgusu, göçmenlerde farklı mekânsal aidiyet duygularının gelişmiş olmasıdır.

“…However, there is no capacity to undertake systematic monitoring of countries which flout the guiding principles established to protect the rights of IDPs (Weiss, 2003). Human rights violations cut across all phases of internal displacement and impede equitable and lasting solutions (Mooney, 2000).…”

Individuals and families forced to flee their homes during internal armed conflict have to cope with the weakening, if not complete breakdown, of societal institutions in their local communities. Furthermore, internally displaced people (IDPs) flee to host communities which frequently are poor and struggle to cope with the influx.The common approach to addressing this humanitarian problem used by the international community is project-based, sequenced programmes. Frequently decisions regarding these interventions do not involve IDPs, accentuating their powerless position. This approach has been criticized for not providing for true participation and therefore not leading to sustainable change (Chambers, 1995) and it can only meet the basic elements of participation in a typology of participation identified by Pretty et al. (1995). 2 The following case study of a post-conflict transition project in Mindanao, Philippines illustrates an alternative paradigm of participation (Muncy, 2000) developed by Community and Family Services International (CFSI), a Philippines-based international humanitarian non-government organization (NGO). This paradigm uses a blended rather than solely sequenced approach to engagement, participation and action. The process engages IDPs from the moment of displacement and does not reduce the experiences

Principles of Protection for Internally Displaced Persons

Abstract: For forced migrants who have not left their country but are internally displaced persons, human rights law provides an important framework through which to analyse and address their plight. Two principal reasons underpin this assertion.
