About

Devising tailored attention and inclusion strategies (TAISs) for vulnerable groups among forcibly displaced people.

The term ‘vulnerability’ refers to a situation determined by both contextual conditions and individual features. Vulnerability not only indicates exposure to potential harms but also one’s reduced capacity to cope with harms.
Vulnerability is a universal human condition, but people experienced it differently depending on contextual and situational factors. Legal instruments and public discourse addressing this topic should take these factors into account.
Insufficient knowledge about vulnerability in contexts of forced displacement leads to poor protection. Even when vulnerable people among those forcibly displaced are promptly identified and there is a formal commitment to safeguarding their fundamental rights, resources are often insufficient to ensure that they are not socially excluded.
TAISs can support the inclusion of vulnerable people in forced displacement thanks to the active participation of all stakeholders, from forcibly displaced people to service providers and policymakers, from the design phase through to implementation and evaluation.
