Displacement and resettlement of people in development activities

AusAID recognises that where physical or economic displacement occurs as a result of development activity, it may lead to long-term hardship and impoverishment unless appropriate measures are carefully considered and carried out. This publication describes AusAID's approach to physical or economic displacement as a result of development. This publication was first issued in February 2012. This version contains minor revisions made to clarify aspects of that document.
