Forced Migration Review, in collaboration with OCHA and UNDP's Bureau
for Crisis Prevention and Recovery, is looking for papers for the August
2004 issue on the return and reintegration of IDPs. It 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. We are looking for articles on: property
restitution, reconciliation and peace building, the rule of law and
return, protection of IDPs after return, re-establishment of
livelihoods, psychosocial needs and rehabilitation, special needs of
women and children and 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. 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 15th May. For further information see:
