Assessment of the Displacement Process Due to Political Violence in Peru (1980–1997)
This report is a broad overview of the issue of displacement in Peru, based on the registry of NGOs from the Regional Roundtables that accompany displaced populations in the departments of Ayacucho, Huancavelica, Apurímac, and Pasco since the second half of the 1980s. These departments are those that have suffered the most from violence during these two decades in the country.
