Towns and cities are a major refuge for internally displaced persons. Yet, urban settings present a series of challenges for these populations, including difficulties accessing housing, basic services, and education. These issues stem from a variety of different reasons, such as discrimination, lack of documentation, financial barriers, amongst others.

Most importantly, it presents a series of recommendations on how these problems can be overcome through the implementation of specific policies and services.
