The study employed descriptive survey research design and primary data were collected through informant interview, observation and document reviews. The findings of the study show that there is a limitation of government response in providing adequate standard of living, including at a minimum access to adequate food, water, better housing, health care and basic education, and access to employment and livelihoods. Furthermore, none of IDPs recover their personal property left behind or destroyed at their place of origin due to displacement; the limitation of national policy on the protection of the rights of IDPs are major findings of the study. The findings of the study suggests national policy framework formulation towards protection of IDPs during displacement and after relocation, provide them lasting solution by ensuring adequate living conditions for IDPs, finding a mechanism through which the IDPs recover their own property and documentations left behind or destroyed as a result of displacement or providing a compensation for it, providing a legal remedy for the crimes committed against IDPs, building a favorable environment on the way in which the IDPs and host communities live together are all obligations that expected from the government. Ethiopia also has to sign international instruments such as Guiding Principles on Internal Displacement(GPID) and has to build strong institutional mechanisms and this impose the Ethiopian government to concern and give attention to IDPs displaced due to conflict and other reasons. Accordingly, fulfilling of the above recommendations by the government can succeed the protection of rights of IDPs relocated in Sululta town. | en_US |
