This study aims to deepen understanding of the drivers and history of displacement in Kabul. It reviews policies and legal frameworks for displaced populations, including protection, housing, land and urban development policies. The study also discusses the specific protection threats and vulnerabilities affecting displaced populations in Kabul and how they compare with other urban poor. The findings of this study indicate that the vast majority of Kabul's urban poor have been displaced at one time or another during their lifetime. The findings also indicate that the drivers of vulnerability amongst Kabul's urban poor, including displaced populations, are complex and relate to a wide range of social, political, ethnic, cultural and other factors.
