This summary presents findings of the 20th round of Mobility Tracking Assessments (previously known as Baseline Assessments) conducted across Northern, Central and Southern Mozambique through key-informant and group interviews at location level between November and December 2023. Mobility Tracking assessments provides a geographical overview of demographic and mobility profiles of internally displaced persons (IDPs) and returnees across Mozambique. During this round, IOM DTM mapped a total of 709,529 IDPs and 632,408 returnees in 364 locations. Cabo Delgado hosts 76 per cent of the overall IDP figure followed by Sofala (11%). Estimated 55 per cent of the total IDPs were identified in host communities whilst 45 per cent are living in displacement sites. Conflict was the major trigger of displacements in Northern Mozambique whereas most of the displacements in Central Mozambique were triggered by disasters due to natural hazards. The total figure of IDPs decreased by 17 per cent comparing to the previous round. However, the analysis suggests that this decrease does not directly correlate with an increased rate of returnee. In Round 20, there was an 11 per cent increase in returnees. This follows significant household-level verification efforts to ensure best estimates.
