Abstract
The aim of this workshop was to bring together academics specializing in all aspects of shelter for refugees and displaced persons with practitioners working in the field and manufacturers of shelter systems to discuss current practice of shelter provision in the Post-Yugoslav countries and collectively make recommendations for improvement. In advance of the workshop, twelve papers were prepared which outlined general experience and areas of achievements and difficulties. Themes from these papers, together with the results of research being undertaken by Sue Ellis, formed the basis of the discussion:
• Level of shelter provision in a developed, cold climate country
• Participation in the design, organization and management of shelter
• Integration of refugees and displaced persons into the built and social environments
• Shelter provision that is sensitive to the requirements of age, gender and .
