Since October 8 there has been an increase in cross-border incidents between Israel and Lebanon, resulting in the displacement of people both within the South and elsewhere within the country. Since October 10, the Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) has been conducting the daily monitoring of population movements. The objective of the exercise is to inform preparedness and response planning.

The International Organization for Migration (IOM), in collaboration with the National Institute for Disaster Risk Reduction and Management (INGD), is pleased to share the Round 21 report of the Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) in northern Mozambique. This report covers data collected during assessments conducted in Cabo Delgado, Nampula, and Niassa by INGD and IOM between May and June 2024. It provides a comprehensive analysis of the demographic and mobility profiles of 577,545 internally displaced persons (IDPs) and 610,732 returnees displaced between 2017 and 2024 in Mozambique.

The report offers updated insights into the profiles of IDPs, and returnees affected by disaster and conflict, drawing on rigorous data collection, verification, and analysis across three(3) provinces. It highlights trends in displacement and return movements, emphasizing the ongoing need for data-driven, area-specific, and solution-oriented approaches to humanitarian, development, and peacebuilding interventions in crisis-affected communities.

The Oblast Profiles draw from data collected during Round 17 of IOM Ukraine’s General Population Survey (GPS), with an emphasis on demographics & displacement, the adoption of coping strategies to meet needs, employment & income, the IDP living allowance, and housing. These granular insights, categorized by population group at the oblast level, aim to inform strategic, programmatic, and operational decision-making.

Between 13 July and 12 August 2024, the International Organization for Migration (IOM) conducted Round 17 of the General Population Survey (GPS), a highly representative assessment of internal displacement in Ukraine. The data presented in this report was commissioned by the International Organization for Migration (IOM) and collected by 51 enumerators employed by Multicultural Insights through screener phone-based interviews with 40,000 randomly selected respondents and follow-up interviews with 1,488 IDPs, 1,188 returnees, and 1,800 residents, using the computer-assisted telephone interview (CATI) method, and a random digit dial (RDD) approach. 

This report provides the main findings from Round 17 of the GPS, including detailed insights into population figures, displacement flows and mobility intentions, demographic profiles, household composition and vulnerabilities, and needs of the displaced population, to facilitate evidence-based decision-making on strategic, technical, and programmatic aspects of the response and recovery efforts in Ukraine.
