This site lets internally displaced people tell their life stories – in their own words. The narratives in these pages are valuable complements to the official information on conflicts which governments and international organisations offer.

These stories deal with the real lives of real people. The narrators share their personal experiences, their sensations, hopes and dreams, and the impact for them of being forced from their homes.

Read and listen to IDP Voices from Colombia and Georgia. IDP Voices from further countries will be added as the projects progress.
