Nigeria — North-central And North-west Zones Site Assessment Round 10

A site assessment is a sub-component of mobility tracking. It aims to collect data on population presence, living conditions and needs in a particular displacement site or community. As of October 2022, the DTM identified a total of 1,087,875 IDPs in 180,307 households in Nigeria’s north-central and north-west zones. This signifies an IDP increase of 12.2 per cent or 118,118 IDPs compared to December 2021. The IDP population included IDPs in camps and camp-like settings (217,205 individuals or 20%) and IDPs residing in host communities (870,670 individuals or 80%). Data collection for IDPs took place between August and September 2022 in 1,690 localities in the eight states of north-central and north-west Nigeria (Benue, Kaduna, Kano, Katsina, Nasarawa, Plateau, Sokoto and Zamfara).
