A/HRC/26/33 communities, States are also required, where appropriate, to extend their assistance to local and host communities. Furthermore, States are to take measures to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness and impact of humanitarian assistance provided to internally displaced persons, in accordance with relevant standards of practice, including those of the Sphere Project. (iv) Registration and documentation 50. Other measures relevant to protection and assistance during displacement that the Convention requires States to take include, but are not limited to, support for registration and the provision or replacement of personal documentation (art. 13). The Convention stresses, however, that the failure to issue internally displaced persons with such documents should not in any way impair the exercise or enjoyment of their human rights. (c) Obligations relating to durable solutions and compensation 51. Article 11 of the Kampala Convention commits States to promoting and creating satisfactory conditions for durable solutions to displacement, including voluntary and sustainable return, local integration or relocation in safety and in dignity. The Convention, in its article 12, also addresses the right of those affected by displacement to effective remedies, including just and fair compensation and other forms of reparations. 52. States are responsible for consulting internally displaced persons on their options for securing durable solutions to displacement to enable them to make a free and informed choice on return, local integration or relocation, and for ensuring their participation in sustainable solutions. 53. Article 11 (4) of the Convention also requires States to take measures for the resolution of property disputes and the recovery of property, including by establishing simplified property dispute resolution mechanisms for internally displaced persons; and restoring the lands of communities with a special dependency and attachment to such lands upon the return of communities and their reintegration (art. 11 (5)). States are further obliged by article 12 (2) to establish an effective legal framework to provide displaced persons, in accordance with international standards, with just and fair compensation and other forms of reparations for damage incurred as a result of displacement, in accordance with international standards. The specific case of internally displaced pastoralists 54. Pastoralism in Africa is characterized by a high reliance on livestock as a source of economic and social well-being, and various types of strategic mobility to secure access to water and grazing resources in areas with a high degree of rainfall variability. Pastoralism is found in all regions of Africa, where, in some regions, it is the dominant livelihood. In 2010, pastoral areas were known to occupy some 40 per cent of African land mass.24 Contrary to assumptions and despite their tradition as nomads, pastoralists do suffer from arbitrary displacement. Displacement of pastoralists is closely linked to the loss of livestock and of access to markets.25 All causes of internal displacement identified in the Convention can be causes of forcible internal displacement for pastoralists.26 24 25 26 African Union, Policy framework for pastoralism in Africa: Securing, protecting and improving the lives, livelihoods and rights of pastoralist communities, October 2010 (available from http://publications.cta.int/en/publications/publication/1735/), p. 1.
