While there is currently no binding and comprehensive international legal framework specifically addressing DID, individuals affected can benefit from the general protections provided under IHRL. Additionally, there are specialized human rights regimes that deal with specific subject matters relevant to DID or offer normative protections to specific groups affected by DID. Notably, the frameworks concerning the rights of internally displaced persons, the rights of indigenous peoples, and the right to development provide applicable normative standards. Relevant standards can also be drawn from various policy frameworks adopted by international financial institutions funding development projects potentially resulting in displacement. This work draws on these legal and policy frameworks. Overall, the objectives of this book are twofold: first, to map out existing IHRL norms applicable to DID; and second, to assess the adequacy of these norms in addressing the adverse consequences and distinctive features of DID. To these ends, the book identifies the relevant frameworks and norms, examines their application within the context of DID, and critically engages with their gaps and limitations.
Those working at the intersection of human rights and development or displacement will find this book relevant. It also offers valuable insights for protecting the rights of individuals or groups potentially affected by DID or for implementing DID in accordance with human rights standards.
