I wanted to point out also a few questions or thoughts : i am not sure
it is ok (or pretty sure it is dangerous) to tag houses or group of
houses with refugee=yes because it is quite localised and could be a
sensitive information.
Then I am not a big fan of
amenity=social_facility+social_facility:for=refugee for spotting a whole
camp, as it is recurrent that there is social facilities in this camp,
and so it will lead to errors such as "impossible to have an amenity
inside an amenity".
Looking forward to read HOT views,
Thks

Hello all,
Thanks Violaine, for sharing this. Yes, we did a lot of work on these
semantics and tagging in the Ugandan context. We use refugee = yes,
because designated refugee areas are not always 'camps' (settlements,
urban blocks, etc).
'Camp' can be pejorative/othering in certain contexts. IDPs as
Internally Displayed Persons are certainly refugees. I copy-in Paul
Uithol and Deo Kiggudde to collaborate in this discussion. Having
limited online access, I will monitor and comment more next week, once
back online proper.
Best,
Rupert

As wikipedia (1) seems to say refugee camp implies internally
displaced people it seem ok to me. (i was wondering if IDP was a
type of refugees or different)
Maybe add a refugee_camp:for=refugee/idp..., refugee_camp:type=
informal/...
I still want to point out that there is more than 2500 use of
refugee=yes (2) so I add Allan to this discussion, hoping he has
some more field feedbacks, what having this new tag would imply..

I would prefer something like refugee_camp=yes or similar.
