ALT The Guiding Principles on Internal Displacement provide an internationally recognized framework that defines the rights of those affected and the responsibilities of national authorities and other actors toward them. They reaffirm that: Every person has the right to be protected from arbitrary displacement. Displacement should be prevented whenever possible and minimized when unavoidable. Internally displaced persons retain full human rights, including dignity, safety, and access to basic needs. Displacement, return, resettlement, or integration must be safe, voluntary, and dignified. They set out rights and guarantees relevant to the protection of persons from forced displacement and to their protection and assistance as well as during local integration, return or resettlement.
