What Do Good Solutions to Internal Displacement Look Like?


Listen Later

On March 8, PRIO invited UN Special Adviser on Solutions to Displacement, Robert Piper, to join a discussion on internal displacement and the gendered impacts of displacement. 

What do data and research have to say about what causes displacement and how? How do various causes of internal displacement affect men and women differently, in the short and long term? What are the short and longer-term consequences of displacement? And what are the gendered impacts of displacement?


Speakers

  • Introduction by Maria Gabrielsen Jumbert, Research Director at the Peace Research Institute Oslo (PRIO)

  • Robert Piper, UN Special Adviser on Solutions to internal displacement, presented "Solutions to situations of internal displacement - a gender perspective"

  • Marta Bivand Erdal, Research Professor in Migration Studies at the Peace Research Institute Oslo (PRIO), presented "Can protracted displacement end?"

  • Halvard Buhaug, Research Director at the Peace Research Institute Oslo (PRIO), presented "We tried to predict flood displacements and failed. This is why"
