The discussion was dedicated to three main aspects of IDPs’ return process: possible scenarios of conflict resolution and IDPs’ return process; institutional resources and mechanisms for ensuring IDPs’ return process; and IDP communities’ expectations and possible effects in regards to various options of conflict resolution and return.
