GUIDING PRINCIPLES ON INTERNAL DISPLACEMENT

INTRODUCTION: SCOPE AND PURPOSE

1. These Guiding Principles address the specific needs of

internally displaced persons worldwide. They identify rights and
guarantees relevant to the protection of persons from forced

displacement and to their protection and assistance during

displacement as well as during return or resettlement and
reintegration.

2. For the purposes of these Principles, internally displaced

persons are persons or groups of persons who have been
forced or obliged to flee or to leave their homes or places of

habitual residence, in particular as a result of or in order to

avoid the effects of armed conflict, situations of generalized
violence, violations of human rights or natural or human-made

disasters, and who have not crossed an internationally

recognized State border.
