| dc.description.abstract | Internally displaced person (IDPs) are a person or a group of people who displaced from their home or permanent residence and flee to another part of their country without crossing international border because of natural or manmade disasters. Since IDPs are a person or group of people who displaced from their property and home, they are vulnerable groups who need special protection and assistance. Because of this the relevant international law like GP and KC, imposes primary obligation on state to provide protection and assistance to their IDPs within their territory. The protection and assistances provided to IDPs have enforced through pillars of state obligation; obligations to respect, protect, and fulfill/provide based on the rights of IDPs, identified under Guiding Principle as worldwide legal standards. GP provide universal legal standard by imposing obligation on state or concerned authority, which includes obligation to respect and protect the rights of IDPs such as the right to be protected from arbitrary displacement, the right to life, dignity, morality, physical integrity, and liberty of IDPs by preventing any acts that violates the rights of IDPs. State has also obligation to fulfill/provide the rights of IDPs, which includes the right to provide immediate humanitarian assistance, durable solution, basic needs, and social service, as well as obligation to provide effective legal frameworks, and legal remedy both in case of civil and criminal matters. In case of Oromo IDPs displaced from Ethiopian Somali region, Ethiopia government did not fulfill its obligation to protect the right of IDPsto be protected from arbitrary displacement, the right to life, dignity, morality, physical and mental integrity of IDPs. Concerning obligation to fulfill/provide, Ethiopia fulfills its obligation to provide humanitarian assistance to Oromo IDPs displaced from Somali regions in 2017. But until now Ethiopia didn’tfully fulfill its obligation to provide durable solution, obligation to provide basic needs and social service and obligation to provide effective legal frameworks and legal remedy both incase of civil and criminal matters for the protection of the rights of its IDPs particularly in case of Oromo IDPs displaced from Ethiopian Somali region. | en_US |
