Abstract
This article is a short discussion of the Malawi Disaster Risk Management Policy, a document that is indirectly linked to internally displaced persons (IDPs) in that country.
The paper focuses on how the Policy can be advantageous for internally displaced persons, despite the fact that it does not have terminology such as ‘internal displacement’ or ‘internally displaced persons’. The paper ends by making three recommendations on policy and legislation regarding IDPs in Malawi.
