People have been uprooted not merely from their homes, but also from homelands to which they may have ties from their ancestors.Displaced persons lose much, such as their houses, their productive resources, culture as well as livelihood, environmental circumstances suited to their abilities and habits, community networks as well as a sense of belongingness.The extent of their deprivation, affliction, and pains is determined by the challenges they experience and the resources they have access to in
