The number of internally displaced persons in the country is estimated at 4.4 million. The local administrations of the host regions are barely able to meet the needs of their own population and therefore cannot respond to the additional requirements and needs of vulnerable groups.

In particular, the needs of disadvantaged groups are taken into account.
