Tools and Resources


The following tools and resources are for grassroots and global activists, researchers, journalists and others.

At IAP we strive to collect a library of tools and resources on forced displacement and accountability in development finance.  Through our Research & Popular Education program area we produce accessible materials for community partners and regional networks.  Our Arts & Media program also generates a number of multi-media resources including photo slide shows and targeted advocacy videos.


IAP Publications
IAP provides accessible and empowering materials for community partners and regional networks that are requesting information about communities’ rights in the context of forced displacement.

Know Your Rights!
Knowing your rights is the first step to defending them! IAP is committed to making available resources that support communities facing unjust displacement to understand what their rights are and how they can be defended.

Photo & Video Gallery
IAP harnesses the power of photos and videos to enhance our advocacy work and amplify the stories of our on-the-ground partners. This page is a collection of photos and videos, created both by IAP and by our partner groups, that have been used in campaigns in which IAP is involved.
