The IASC Framework on Durable Solutions for IDPs is operationalised into :
The guide outlines a systematic and principled process to jointly inform durable solutions to internal displacement, measure progress, and identify priorities for action. The indicator library and question bank provide a solid starting point for designing a household survey tool for a durable solutions analysis.
The 2010 IASC Framework on Durable Solutions for Internally Displaced Persons is widely recognised as the internationally agreed benchmark to work towards solutions for IDPs.
The IASC Framework determines that “a durable solution is achieved when IDPs no longer have specific assistance and protection needs that are linked to their displacement and such persons can enjoy their human rights without discrimination resulting from their displacement”.
This Guide outlines:
The library operationalises the IASC Framework on Durable Solutions into agreed upon and statistically sound indicators for measuring progress towards solutions.
The Durable Solutions Indicator Library has been translated into a Durable Solutions Question Bank. This can be used to jumpstart the process of designing a household questionnaire for measuring durable solutions.
The question bank was developed by JIPS, with valuable reviews provided by several of the Technical Steering Committee partners.
The presentation introduces the IASC Framework and approaches to analyse solutions. Intended for use by partner organisations and durable solutions practitioners, it provides an easy entry point to the topic. To be used in combination with the session plan.
The session plan offers guidance for the facilitation of the presentation on durable solutions analysis including guidance on interactive exercise to explore the definition of durable solutions. To be used in combination with the presentation.
Below is a compilation of durable solutions studies and other resources relevant to exploring further how measuring progress towards solutions is done across different contexts and by different actors.
