Strengthening IFRC responses to internal displacement in disasters: Challenges and opportunities
The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) and Red Cross Red Crescent National Societies, together with the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), have a long-standing commitment to addressing situations of internal displacement and provide vital support to millions of internally displaced people.
This year marks the 10th anniversary of the adoption of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement Policy on Internal Displacement , which provides important guidance to all components of the Movement on how to address the various aspects of preventing, responding to and facilitating durable solutions to internal displacement caused by disasters, including those related to climate change, armed conflict and other situations of violence.
