It also illustrates how PEA may contribute to understanding forced displacement crises with nine case studies: Casamance (Senegal), Colombia, Cote dapos;Ivoire, Democratic Republic of Congo, Liberia, the Philippines, Somalia, South Sudan, and Zimbabwe. Forced displacement is understood here as a situation where persons are forced to leave or flee their homes due to conflict, violence, or human rights violations. The key elements of forced displacement PEAs include: i) a review of the historical context and displacement characteristics; ii) durable solutions prospects; iii) environmental, geographic, social, political, and economic drivers, constraints and opportunities; (iv) needs of the displaced and hosts; v) existing policies, government/institutional context, and operations; and vi) recommendations. Recommendations on development policies and programs that result from a PEA characteristically fall into at least four categories, namely: i) improving access to land, housing and property; ii) reestablishment of livelihoods; iii) improving delivery of services; and iv) strengthening accountable and responsible governance. PEAs of forced displacement analyze the contestation and distribution of power and resources along with the development challenges associated with forced displacement crises. By nature of their marginalization and the frequently protracted nature of their exile, the forcibly displaced are especially vulnerable as power and resources are disputed. The purpose of conducting a PEA on forced displacement is to inform policy dialogue and operations so that the interests of vulnerable forcibly displaced populations and their hosts are effectively accommodated in resource allocation decision-making and in poverty alleviation initiatives. From the earliest design phase to dissemination of the results, the PEA is essentially an exercise in effectively collecting relevant data, analyzing these, and then marketing the analysis and its operational implications to the right stakeholders. This report is intended to be an aid in navigating these decision points and activities and to encourage more frequent and better use of political economy analysis in evaluating and addressing forced displacement.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOACCESS TO COMMONACCESS TO MARKETSACCOUNTABILITYADJUDICATIONAGRICULTURAL PRODUCTIONANALYTICAL APPROACHARMED CONFLICTARMED CONFLICTSARMED FORCESASYLUMASYLUM SEEKERSBASIC NEEDSBASIC RIGHTSBORDER AREASBOUNDARYCAPACITY BUILDINGCASH CROPSCAUSES OF DISPLACEMENTCITIZENCITIZEN SECURITYCITIZENSCITIZENSHIPCIVIL SOCIETYCIVIL WARCIVILIAN POPULATIONSCOMMUNITIES OF ORIGINCOMMUNITY DRIVEN DEVELOPMENTCONFLICT RESOLUTIONCONSOLIDATIONCONVENTIONCOPING STRATEGIESCOUNTERINSURGENCYCOUNTERPARTCOUNTERPARTSCOUNTRY OF ORIGINCRIMECRIMINAL ORGANIZATIONSCRIMINALITYCRISESCULTURAL PRACTICESCYCLE OF VIOLENCEDEATHSDEBTDEFICITSDEMININGDEMOBILIZATIONDEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIESDEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCEDEVELOPMENT INTERVENTIONSDEVELOPMENT POLICIESDEVELOPMENT PROJECTSDISARMAMENTDISCRIMINATIONDISPLACEMENT EFFECTSDISPUTE RESOLUTIONDISPUTED TERRITORIESDISSEMINATIONDIVISION OF LABORDRINKING WATERDRIVERSDRUGECONOMIC CHANGEECONOMIC DEVELOPMENTECONOMIC GROWTHECONOMIC INTEGRATIONECONOMIC REINTEGRATIONECONOMIC STATUSELDERLYELECTIONSEMPLOYMENTEMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIESENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITYEQUAL PARTICIPATIONETHNIC GROUPETHNIC GROUPSEX-COMBATANTSEXPLOITATIONFAMILIESFIGHTINGFOOD INSECURITYFOREIGNERSFRONTIERSFULL CITIZENSHIPGENDER EQUALITYGOOD GOVERNANCEGOVERNMENT DEPARTMENTSGOVERNMENT LEGITIMACYGOVERNMENT POLICIESGOVERNMENT PROGRAMSGUERRILLAHEALTH CAREHOMELESSNESSHOST GOVERNMENTHOUSINGHUMAN RIGHTSHUMAN RIGHTS VIOLATIONSHUMANITARIAN AFFAIRSHUMANITARIAN AIDHUMANITARIAN ASSISTANCEIMMIGRATIONIMMIGRATION POLICYINCLUSIONINCOMEINDIGENOUS CULTUREINEQUITIESINFORMATION CAMPAIGNSINHERITANCEINSTITUTIONAL CAPACITYINTERNATIONAL COMMITTEEINTERNATIONAL LAWINTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATION FOR MIGRATIONJOB OPPORTUNITIESJOURNALISTSLABOR MARKETLABOR MARKETSLACK OF INFORMATIONLAND MINESLAND OWNERSHIPLAND TENURELAND USELARGE NUMBERS OF REFUGEESLAWSLEGAL FRAMEWORKLEGAL REFORMLEGISLATIONLIFE EXPECTANCYLIVELIHOOD OPPORTUNITIESLIVELIHOOD SKILLSLIVING CONDITIONSLOCAL COMMUNITIESLOCAL GOVERNMENTSLOCAL POPULATIONLOW-INCOME COUNTRYMARKET VALUEMEDIATIONMEETINGMENTAL REHABILITATIONMIGRANTSMILITARIZATIONMILLENNIUM DEVELOPMENT GOALSMINORITYNATIONSNATURAL RESOURCENATURAL RESOURCESNEEDS ASSESSMENTNEEDS ASSESSMENTSNUMBER OF PEOPLEPARTNERSHIPPEACEPEACEBUILDINGPOLARIZATIONPOLICEPOLICY ACTIVITIESPOLICY DIALOGUEPOLITICAL ECONOMYPOLITICAL INSTABILITYPOLITICAL POWERPOLITICAL SETTLEMENTSPOLITICAL VIOLENCEPOPULATION MOVEMENTSPRACTITIONERSPROPERTY OWNERSHIPPROPERTY RIGHTSPROVISION OF SUPPORTPUBLIC INFORMATIONPUBLIC SERVICESQUALITY OF LIFERACERECONCILIATIONRECONSTRUCTIONREFERRAL SERVICESREFERRAL SYSTEMSREFUGEEREFUGEE CAMPSREFUGEE POPULATIONSREFUGEESREGIONAL STRATEGYREGULATORY FRAMEWORKRESOURCE ALLOCATIONRESOURCE USERESPECTRESTITUTIONRETURNEESRULE OF LAWRURAL AREASRURAL DEVELOPMENTRURAL INFRASTRUCTURERURAL POPULATIONSRURAL PROPERTYSAFETYSAFETY NETSANITATIONSCARCITY OF WATERSELF-RELIANCESERVICE DELIVERYSERVICE PROVISIONSOCIAL CAPITALSOCIAL COHESIONSOCIAL CONDITIONSSOCIAL DEVELOPMENTSOCIAL GROUPSOCIAL SERVICESOCIAL SERVICESSOCIAL SUPPORTSTATUS OF REFUGEESSTATUS OF WOMENSYSTEMS OF LAND TENURETACTICSTECHNICAL ASSISTANCEUNDERDEVELOPMENTURBAN AREASURBAN CENTERSVICIOUS CYCLEVICTIMSVIOLENCEVIOLENCE PREVENTIONVIOLENT CONFLICTVOCATIONAL TRAININGVOLUNTARY REPATRIATIONVOLUNTEERVULNERABILITYVULNERABLE GROUPSWAGESWARWARFAREWARSWORLD DEVELOPMENT10.1596/20815
