ABSTRACT
The
study
was
conducted
in
Pader
district,
one
of
the
districts
that
was
worst
affected
by
the
LRA
conflict
in
northern
Uganda.
95%
of
the
total
population
of
Pader
district
were
displaced
into
IDP
camps
and
neighbouring
districts,
as
a
result
of
the
twenty
year
old
armed
conflict
in
northern
Uganda.
With
the
improvements
in
the
security
situation
from
the
year
2005
to
date,
the
IDP
population
in
Pader
district
have
been
resettling
to
either
transit
sites
or
homes
of
origin.
The
objective
of
the
study
was
to
find
out
the
opportunities
that
the
IDPs
had
for
resettling;
the
challenges
and
protection
threats
that
IDPs
were
exposed
to
during
the
resettlement
process
and
to
generate
facts,
figures
and
qualitative
information
on
perceived
needs
and
attitudes
of
IDPs
towards
resettlement
in
light
of
the
‘improved’
security
situation
in
Northern
Uganda.
Data
was
collected
from
the
field
by
use
of
questionnaires,
and
focus
group
discussions.
Prior
made
reports
and
written
materials
from
the
UNHCR
and
other
humanitarian
agencies
operating
in
the
district
like
ICRC,
UNICEF,
WHO,
OCHA,
WFP
and
the
district
local
government
were
also
reviewed
and
consulted.
Findings
from
the
study
are
presented
by
use
of
tables,
figures
as
well
as
descriptive
methods.
Findings
from
the
study
indicate
that
the
IDPs
were
displaced
in
areas
within
and
outside
the
district.
Three
resettlement
patterns
of
the
IDPs
was
established
by
the
study;
which
include
resettlement
without
movement
among
those
that
reside
within
a
reasonable
distance
from
their
pre-displacement
homes,
resettlement
with
movement
where
the
IDPs
were
resettling
