Where applicable, States should ensure that all necessary steps are taken for the environmental and developmental rehabilitation of areas to which displaced persons are returning. 99. States should ensure that minority groups affected by displacement are adequately included in any durable solution, strategy or displacement-focused policy developed following the displacement of a population. Such strategies and policies should contribute to shaping a comprehensive response that includes protection and humanitarian and developmental considerations. Comprehensive profiling activities can be helpful for informing the implementation of such processes. 100. States should ensure effective and comprehensive monitoring of recovery and progress towards durable solutions for all communities, including persons belonging to minorities who may face specific obstacles or discrimination hindering them from reestablishing their lives or reaching a durable solution after a crisis.

Targeted attention must be paid to minorities who may be subject to multiple and intersectional forms of discrimination at the post-crisis stage. All service providers must take into account that some groups within minority communities, such as women, children, older persons, persons with disabilities or lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender or intersex persons may need special support in order not to be excluded from the delivery of such services. Claiming minority rights 105. States, the United Nations, international and other actors should work at all stages, but in particular at the recovery stage, to empower minorities so as to enable them to know and to claim their rights and raise awareness about their own situation. In this respect, minority activists and civil society organizations should be supported, in particular at the post-crisis stage. 106.
