The Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) is IOM’s primary suite of tools used to track and monitor displacement and population mobility in over 60 countries around the world including Sudan. During the month of July 2017, IOM DTM teams conducted 29 field missions, covering about 70 sites/villages, to register and verify different caseloads of IDPs, returnees, refugees and affected host communities in the states of North Darfur, South Darfur, West Darfur, South Kordofan, and West Kordofan. A total of 15,819 individuals were registered during these missions. Additionally, the DTM teams tracked 1,747 individuals arriving at different localities in South Kordofan and 232 individuals in Abyei. In addition, 12,764 returnees were registered in North Darfur since January 2017. All DTM activities are conducted in collaboration with the Humanitarian Aid Commission (HAC), the Area / Humanitarian Country Team (A/HCT) and partners on the ground.
