Migration policy framework for Africa and plan of action (2018 – 2030) put under pressure and their humanitarian needs not being addressed to the same extent as those of refugees. xvii. Support international efforts to find durable solutions to mass displacement by promoting the objectives of UNHCR’s Agenda for Protection and the Comprehensive Implementation Plan for Protection Activities in Africa (CIP), inter alia through local capacity building and more equitable international burden sharing, including consideration of bilateral and multilateral frameworks for co-operation in line with UNHCR’s Convention Plus initiative, and the possibilities of targeted development assistance and debt relief to major refugee hosting countries. xviii. Provide durable solutions to refugees that offer opportunities for voluntary repatriation, local integration and resettlement. xix. Strengthen bilateral cooperation between States with regard to the treatment and status of refugees. xx. Encourage countries to give priority to family tracing and reunification for separated and unaccompanied refugee children. Where tracing is unsuccessful, mechanisms should be devised to allow for the adoption of refugee children where possible. Where children are allowed to be adopted by citizens, they should be given the opportunity to choose their nationality upon attaining majority in accordance with national law. xxi. African refugees should be given equal treatment with others from other parts of the world in line with international law, norms and standards. 6.2 Internally displaced persons Today the IDP population in Africa outnumbers the refugee population by a wide margin, thereby creating the need for comprehensive and concerted efforts to address the issue of internal displacement, including through early warning systems, to implement timely measures to prevent displacement. Displacement of populations within a country may occur as a result of terrorism, conflict, natural disasters or climatic conditions, and may require transnational cooperation to prevent or address. Member States adopted the Kampala Convention for the Protection and Assistance of Internally Displaced Persons in Africa in 2009, to comprehensively address the plight of IDPs. It recognises that the primary responsibility to prevent internal displacement, as well as protect and assist IDPs, lies with national authorities. Recommended strategies i. 60 Ratify and implement the Kampala Convention for the Protection and Assistance of Internally Displaced Persons in Africa and its Action Plan (2017 – 2025).
