Abstract
A variety of sources are examined, including academic studies, reports from agencies such as the UN, NGOs working directly with displaced persons and reports and information from the government, including legislation and policy relating to the employment status and activity of the displaced people. Existing information on demand and supply for the labour of displaced people is considered, together with sources of information on income levels. Various projects, run by NGOs and other groups, are also examined to assess how these have met their aim of providing employment and income generating opportunities, either directly or through training and skills development.
