In Afghanistan, DTM employs the Baseline Mobility Assessment tool, designed to track mobility, determine the population sizes, locations and geographic distribution of forcibly displaced, return and migrant populations, reasons for displacement, places of origin, and times of displacement, as well as basic demographics, vulnerabilities and priority needs. Data is collected at the settlement level, through community focus group discussions with key informants and direct observations.

As of 30 June 2020, 34 provinces, 397 districts and 12,335 settlements have been assessed, including interviews with 62,194 key informants. Between 2012 and June 2020, 3,881,903 returnees and 4,760,478 IDPs currently living in host communities were identified.
