dc.description.abstractDevelopment projects and war regularly lead to the internal displacement and involuntary resettlement of tens of millions of people each year. Though most “internally displaced people” settle spontaneously, a significant proportion is involuntarily resettled into planned “camps” and “settlements”. Drawing on a vast and rapidly growing literature, this study sought to establish the salient roles of civil society organizations in the resettlement of the internally displaced people in Tinderet district within Kenya. On this note, all other authors’ works similar to this particular study were revisited and this tornied the basis of the researcher’s review of related literature. A descriptive survey design was employed since the whole study was about explaining a scenario / an event or occurrence. In the process of data collection, questionnaires and interview guides were employed after which data was analyzed and presented in percentages and frequency distribution tables. The findings from the study revealed that civil society organization had played a significant role in the resettlement of the internally displaced people. Their contributions were seen in the aspects of; medical care, housing facility provision, food provision, resettlement package and education service provision. Recommendations were made which called for; Incentive provision to marginalized communities, Initiation and strengthening of disaster preparedness department, gazetting of more land for the internally displaced and eradication of cattle rustling vice among others.en_US
