Title Translating Protection into Legislative Action: Normative Framework on Internal Displacement in Ukraine and Georgia
Summary This study focuses on Ukrainian IDP’s right to social security and right to equal treatment before the law. Drawing upon international legal norms on internal displacement and Georgian experience in this field, the research aims to identify applicable legislative initiatives to address these areas of concern. It examines compliance of the Ukrainian normative framework on internal displacement with the international legal norms envisaged in the UN Guiding Principles on Internal Displacement. Through legal analysis and interviews with Georgian experts it reveals how similar legal and policy gaps were addressed by Georgian law and policy makers. The research suggests that Georgian experience in ensuring durable solutions on internal displacement through legislative and policy reforms should be considered while designing laws and policies affecting Ukrainian IDPs.
