In 2022, DTM Somalia collaborated with GIST to implement a study aimed at understanding the key drivers of displacement during the drought crisis of that year. A key finding highlighted that the availability of humanitarian assistance and geographical presence of aid actors in Somalia guides internal displacement.
Following this, in 2023, DTM and GIST teamed up again to conduct this follow up research aimed at answering the following question: How have investments in resilience, durable solutions and development programming influenced displacement patterns? This report summarises key findings from the study.
