Title   Profile of internal displacement: Zimbabwe
Author Global IDP Project
Edition PDF
Published Geneva: Global IDP Project
Year 2002-10-17
Pages 38
Abstract Since the release in July 2002 of the first version of this profile on internal displacement in Zimbabwe, the general food situation has become even more disastrous and there are clear indicators that an increasing number of people have been internally displaced by continuous political violence and the ongoing eviction of the commercial farmers. The IDPs are left in an extremely vulnerable situation both with regard to physical security and basic needs like food, health services and shelter. While the food shortage in Zimbabwe attracts major international attention and has been fairly throughout assessed, the internal displacement situation unfortunately remains poorly documented.
