  • Survey

The aim of the survey was to shed light on the voices and aspirations of IDPs regarding their preferred durable solutions within the next 12 months or one year, to facilitate evidence-based decision-making, and policy and programme planning around durable solutions. A durable solution is achieved when IDPs no longer have any specific assistance and protection needs that are linked to their displacement and can enjoy their human rights without discrimination on account of their displacement. The intentions such as ‘return to the place of origin’, ‘integrate into the current location’, or ‘relocate to a new location’ which were assessed during the survey were indicative of the preferred Solutions of IDPs. 
The survey brought to light that a large portion (37%) of the respondents intend to return to their place of origin. Also, almost the same proportion of the respondents intended to integrate into their current location (38%). The largest number of respondents who expressed their desire to return were in Borno State. Similarly, most of the respondents who wished to integrate because of the security situation were good in their current location. Regionally, the respondents in the LGAs towards the west of the region were more inclined to integration compared to those LGAs towards the northern parts. The survey also revealed that two per cent of the respondents prefer to relocate to another LGA or state. The majority of those who intended to relocate preferred the LGAs within their state of current displacement.
