Building on the Pinheiro Principles, this Handbook provides important and practical guidance to all those working on housing and property restitution issues. It aims at promoting durable solutions for internally displaced persons and refugees, including the right to return to the homes and properties from which they fled or were forced to leave due to armed conflict and human rights violations. The Handbook should contribute to efforts to strengthen the protection of restitution rights, and in doing so, help to prevent future conflict and consolidate recent peace.
