In 1994, Roberta Cohen and I cofounded and codirected The Brookings Project on Internal Displacement to assist my mandate with research and outreach activities, including collaboration with regional organizations and nongovernmental organizations. When I left Brookings in 2002 to join the City University of New York Graduate Center and then to the Johns Hopkins University School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS) the Project changed names to reflect the Brookings collaboration with these institutions. In 2004, when Professor Walter Kalin of Bern University in Switzerland, the Project became Brookings-Bern Project on Internal Displacement.

Initially, the working definition of the United Nations described internally displaced persons as "persons who have been forced to flee their homes suddenly or unexpectedly in large numbers, as a result of armed conflict, internal strife, systematic violations of human rights or natural or manmade disasters, and who are within the territory of their country." Analytical Report of the Secretary General on Internally Displaced Persons, U.N. Doc. E/CN.4/1992.23 (1992). For a preliminary discussion of definitional issues on the basis of this definition see Report of the Representative of the Secretary General on Internally Displaced Persons, U.N. ESCOR, 51 Sess., Agenda item 11(d) 116-27, U.N. Doc. E/CN.4/1995/50 (1995). Further points for consideration and the rational for refining the definition appear in Cohen and Deng, Masses in Flight, p. 10. The present definition in The Guiding Principles on Internal Displacement, Principle 2, is: a persons or group of persons who have been forced or obliged to flee or to leave their homes or places of habitual residence in particular as a result of, or to avoid the effects of, armed conflict, situations of generalized violence, violations of human rights, or natural or human-made disasters and who have not crossed internationally-recognized State border."

When internally displaced persons were first counted in 1982, it was estimated that there were 1.2 million IDPs. By 1992, when the issue was considered by the Commission on Human Rights, the numbers had increased to between 20 and 24 million. With the end of the Cold War, super power rivalry ended and Western governments geopolitical advantage in accepting refugees began to wane, which led to the desire to find solutions that would keep potential refugees within their own borders. Today, the number of IDPs in estimated at 24 million in about 50 countries. Norwegian Refugee Council, Global IDP Project, 2004.
