IGAD to engage with UNEP, UNHABITAT, UNHCR, OCHA and national environmental management authorities to provide technical, financial and other assistance which ensures environmental protection in areas where the environment pushes out and those where it pulls migrants and displaced persons. iii.

Monitor residential behabiour of displaced persons in the host communities to detect plausible environmental challenges and opportunities for formulating appropriate policies and programmes. v.
