United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (Geneva) 14 June 2011 Abidjan — Some two months after the resolution of Côte d'Ivoire's post-election crisis, more than 300,000 people remain displaced across the country. Over the past three weeks, UNHCR and its partners have registered 322,277 internally displaced people (IDPs) and the exercise is continuing. More than 200,000 Ivorian refugees remain in other countries in West Africa after fleeing violence that erupted between supporters of the rival candidates - Laurent Gbagbo and Alassane Ouattara - in last November's presidential poll.
