LIFE OUTSIDE CAMPS: UNDERSTANDING IDPS NEEDS IN INFORMAL SETTLEMENTS IN NIGERIA’S FEDERAL CAPITAL TERRITORY

Master thesis | African Studies (MA)
This research was designed to identify and critically examine social-economic conditions of IDPs in 10 informal settlements in Abuja, Nigeria. Data were collected mainly in the face-to face interviews, observations and informal discussion group. The results show that IDPs in informal settlements are vulnerable and live in very poor conditions. The most alarming data is that some of them have not received any kind support from the Government in years. For this reason, it is important to fill the gap of knowledge in this field in order to provide authorities and other actors (NGOs and international organization) updated data.
