core pillars of international protection, but this is only a temporary measure aimed at alleviating suffering and cannot replace a comprehensive political solution. Addressing this completely unacceptable and unsustainable state of affairs therefore represents a matter of great urgency and it can only be realized through the application of concerted pressure by the international community through all available channels. These joint efforts should be based on adopting and supporting rights-based durable solutions within a long-term strategy. This strategy would incorporate developing mechanisms and taking effective measures to bring Israel into compliance with international law; ensuring the end of Israeli policies of forcible displacement, the effective protection of Palestinian refugees, IDPs and those at risk of forcible transfer in Palestine and host countries; and realization of the right to reparations of all forcibly displaced Palestinians. Adopting a rights-based approach and solution would mean that the international community must exert pressure on Israel to recognize the right of return of Palestinian refugees, and to implement it, starting with the revocation of all legislation and policies set in place to that deny return of all those displaced, followed by taking positive steps to facilitate the repatriation of all those displaced. A rights-based solution would also entail the realization of the right to restitution, both for Palestinian returnees and also for those choosing not to return. The international community must also make concerted efforts to establish a compensation mechanism, not in place of the right of return, but in addition to it, to compensate forcibly displaced Palestinians for material and non-material damages. Finally, it is essential that there are firm guarantees of non-repetition, in order to ensure that forcibly displaced Palestinians can take voluntarily determine their status and future. 69
