This document aims to explore these questions by reviewing the paper Promoting recovery and resilience for internally displaced persons: lessons from Colombia (2022) written by Ana María Ibáñez, Andrés Moya, and Andrea Velásquez (Part 1). The discussion will be complemented using the PDETs Population Triage developed by the National Statistics Oce (DANE) to delve deeper in the contexts of regions that historically have been the most aected by the conflict (Part 2). It is expected that this discussion about academic research can be used for operational purposes by UNHCR, following an evidence-based approach that enhances the response to the needs of Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs).
