A/HRC/38/39 81. Political will, leadership and good governance at all levels, including what is needed to prevent and stop conflicts, are essential components in reducing internal displacement and implementing the Guiding Principles. Without such a commitment to action, the numbers of internally displaced persons will continue to rise inexorably in all regions and the internal displacement crisis will deepen and extend. Numerous States have shown the necessary vision and demonstrated such leadership and good governance in their responses to internal displacement. Their examples should be highlighted in this anniversary year and demonstrate that national authorities who adhere to the Guiding Principle, are able to heal and include all in society — truly leaving no internally displaced person behind. VIII. Recommendations 82. The Special Rapporteur makes the following recommendations to States, particularly those affected by internal displacement. On the occasion of the twentieth anniversary of the Guiding Principles on Internal Displacement, States should undertake national level activities and initiatives to enhance protection for internally displaced persons and prevent and resolve internal displacement. Such activities may include: (a) Reviewing national legal, policy and institutional frameworks to assess their functions, progress and achievements against the Guiding Principles on internal displacement; (b) Ensuring that internally displaced persons are included in all relevant decision-making and national processes, including in relation to the Sustainable Development Goals; (c) Initiating a national action plan for internally displaced persons with the objective of achieving durable solutions within established time frames; (d) Ensuring that internal displacement issues are addressed in national and local development plans; (e) Undertaking a programme of consultations and participatory measures to review the situation, needs and expectation of internally displaced persons; (f) Convening conferences, seminars and other platforms, in collaboration with civil society and other national and international stakeholders, for local and national dialogue, including the full participation of internally displaced persons; (g) Undertaking awareness-raising and promotional campaigns relating to the human rights of internally displaced persons; (h) Making or renewing national commitments to achieving durable solutions for internally displaced persons, including for those in situations of protracted displacement; (i) Considering preparatory, early warning and risk management processes and mechanisms relating to internal displacement; (j) Considering inviting the Special Rapporteur to conduct an official visit to engage in dialogue on internal displacement challenges; (k) languages; (l) Translating the Guiding Principles into national and local or minority Undertaking the training of relevant officials on internal displacement; (m) Contributing to regional activities and solidarity and experience-sharing initiatives aimed at sharing effective practices in response to internal displacement; (n) Establishing a national day for internally displaced persons. 19
