Indeed, people in these facilities have no other place to seek rescue. In addition, a large number of IDPs are children and persons in need of care (including medical) – the elderly, persons with disabilities, pregnant, and persons with illnesses. Settlements are often created in buildings and territories not equipped for simultaneous stay of adults and children, i.e. children’s camps, boarding schools etc. Some buildings require refurbishments; there are no heating systems or sufficient amount of furniture. In addition, accommodation of IDPs, particularly children, automatically creates the need for staff services, from cooks to psychologists and pedagogues.
