An internally displaced person (IDP) is someone who has been forced to leave their home and community but stays within the boundaries of their state. They have not crossed an international border and are not considered refugees. The United Nations defines an IDP as a person who has been "forced or obliged to flee or to leave their homes or places of habitual residence, in particular as a result of or in order 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 an internationally recognized State border."
