Ignored Displaced Persons: the plight of IDPs in urban areas

UNHCR describes internally displaced persons (IDPs) as “probably the largest group of vulnerable people in the world.” Although it is nearly impossible to estimate the global number of urban IDPs, the figures that do exist would put the total at nearly four million. Yet this group remains silent, largely ignored, and without hope for durable solutions to their plight.
