Today marks the first coordinated effort by the INGOs to encourage the IDPs to return home. INGOs will set up food distribution in the suburbs of Dili while the International Stability Force are set to post security personnel to the suburbs, thus addressing two concerns the IDPs have and which prevent them from leaving the camps: food and security. Let’s hope it has a noticeable effect.
