Dear colleague,
The Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre (IDMC) is pleased to share its latest briefing paper with you: "The Kampala Convention two years on: time to turn theory into practice". The first of its kind in the world, the convention is a regional instrument that legally binds governments to protect the rights and wellbeing of people forced to flee their homes by conflict, violence, disasters and human rights abuses.
To commemorate the ground-breaking convention, the paper illustrates its achievements and how signatory countries like the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), Mali, Zimbabwe and Cote d'Ivoire have taken different approaches to implementing its provisions.
We remain at your disposal should you have any comments or inquiries.
With warm regards,
Best regards,
Sebastián Albuja
