Ten Years of the Guiding Principles
http://www.fmreview.org/GuidingPrinciples10.htm
This 40-page special issue of Forced Migration Review (FMR), published
by the Refugee Studies Centre of Oxford University, reflects discussions
at the international conference on the Ten Years of the Guiding
Principles on Internal Displacement (GP10) held in Oslo on 16-17
October 2008.
The conference aimed to assess the accomplishments and shortcomings of
the Guiding Principles since their launch in 1998. It also sought to
generate increased political will to incorporate the Guiding Principles
into national, regional and global frameworks and to encourage progress
towards their practical implementation.
The FMR special issue includes shortened versions of some of the
conference presentations, plus a selection of other articles, most of
which present case studies on the application of the Guiding Principles
in different countries.
It is now online (in English) at
http://www.fmreview.org/GuidingPrinciples10.htm
It will be published in English, Arabic, French and Spanish, and has
been produced with the support of NRC/IDMC, the Norwegian Ministry of
Foreign Affairs and the Brookings-Bern Project on Internal Displacement.
