The DTM Ethiopia Site Assessment Durable Solutions Index Report measures the progress of IDP populations towards overcoming displacement-related vulnerabilities by examining specific criteria outlined within the IASC Framework on Durable Solutions for Internally Displaced Persons. The composite index is made up of 24 indicators from DTM Ethiopia's Site Assessment and treated as sub-criteria in measuring the 5 core criteria of the IASC Framework. In this report, the index is applied to the same 10 sites as the previous round, to measure progress towards overcoming displacement-related vulnerabilities.  

The international Organization for Migration’s (IOM) Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) in partnership with the World Food Programme (WFP), United Nations Missions in South Sudan (UNMISS) and other humanitarian partners conducted a biometric registration exercise at Malakal Protection of Civilians (PoC) site from 12 December 2019 to 7 January 2020. Prior to the registration, the Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) in the PoC site were targeted through a process known as temporary registration (T-Reg) on 26 October 2019 to quickly determine the actual population residing in the site by rapidly establishing a simple fingerprint database of all residents. Those who participated in the T-Reg were screened and allowed to participate in the full biometric registration.

The international Organization for Migration’s (IOM) Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) in partnership with the World Food Programme (WFP) and World Vision International (WVI) conducted a biometric registration exercise in Nasir County, Upper Nile between March and June 2019 covering 10 locations. The exercise was conducted in two phases at registration sites along the Sobat River (Jikmir, Makak, Maker, Mandeng) which were accessed via boat from March to April 2019, while registration sites for in-land locations (Garieng, Gum 1, Gum 2 (Meer), Kiechkuon, Mading, Ngueny) were covered from May to June 2019. DTM registered a total of 90,480 individuals (16,014 households) during the exercise. Population categories were disaggregated during the registration to categorize beneficiaries into IDPs, returnees and host community. 

The international Organization for Migration’s (IOM) Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) in partnership with the World Food Programme (WFP), United Nations Missions in South Sudan (UNMISS) and other humanitarian partners conducted a biometric registration exercise in Wau Protection of Civilians Adjacent Area (PoC AA) from 8 to 27 August 2019. Prior to the registration, the Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) in the PoC site were targeted through a process known as temporary registration (T-Reg) which is a day-long exercise to quickly determine the actual population residing in the site by rapidly establishing a simple fingerprint databse of all residents. Those who participated in the T-Reg were screened and allowed to participate in the full biometric registration. During the exercise, IOM DTM registered 13,053 individuals (4,006 households) as residents of Wau PoC AA. Although IOM DTM had observed a gradual decline in the population of the site through monthly population counts, the biometric registration show a significant drop of 27 per cent (30,167 individuals) compared to the last biometric registration conducted in 2017.

The crisis currently affecting the Lake Chad Basin states results from a complex combination of factors, including conflict with Non-State Armed Groups, extreme poverty, underdevelopment and a changing climate, which together have triggered significant displacement of populations. As of 27 January 2020, Cameroon, Chad, Niger and Nigeria were hosting an estimated 4,672,045 affected individuals made up of Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs), Refugees (both in- and out-of-camp), Returnees (Former IDPs and Returnees from abroad) and Third Country Nationals (TCNs). 78 per cent of the affected population (representing 3,654,242 individuals) were located in Nigeria, while 11 per cent resided in Cameroon (523,073 individuals), 6 per cent in Niger (260,553 individuals) and 5 per cent in Chad (234,177 individuals).

Population distribution as of DTM Round 5 (Jan. - March 2019) in soums with very high and high level of risk of Dzud under the EAP January 2020. Important note: DTM Round 5 (Jan - Mar 2019) was completed in 330 soums, but did not include data collection in Ulaanbaatar. This map therefore does not contain population numbers for Ulaanbaatar.

This report presents the findings of Round 28 of the mobility tracking component of the Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) programme in Libya, covering the reporting period from November to December 2019. In Round 28, the number of internally displaced persons (IDPs) identified in Libya increased from 343,180 IDPs to 355,762 IDPs. New displacements during the reporting period were primarily due to continued armed conflict in western Libya (Tripoli mantika and surrounding regions).
