The Project on Internal Displacement was created to promote a more effective national, regional and international response to this global problem and to support the work of the Representative of the UN Secretary-General on the Human Rights of Internally Displaced Persons in carrying out the responsibilities of his mandate. The Project is co-directed by Walter Kälin, the Representative of the Secretary-General, and Elizabeth Ferris, Senior Fellow at the Brookings Institution. Website:
