Mexico's National Commission for the Development of Indigenous Peoples (CDI) is carrying out the Project for Assistance to Displaced Indigenous Peoples (PAID), which provides the basic conditions to enable displaced indigenous populations to re-establish themselves, materially and culturally, in the places to which they have relocated, or from which they were expelled in the case of return, through the joint efforts of federal, state and municipal entities. Under this project, displaced indigenous families can acquire farmland, plots of land, building materials for houses and inputs to launch productive activities as compensation for material losses they may have suffered as a result of acts of violence, armed conflict, human rights violations, or religious, political, cultural or ethnic intolerance, with the assurance that their cultural diversity will be fully respected.
