Ethiopia — Cash Feasibility Snapshot Report (August – September 2023)
Sep 02 2023
- Mobility Tracking
- Site Assessment
- Village Assessment
Between August and September 2023, the International Organization for Migration (IOM) Data and Research Unit (DRU), through its Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) methodology, deployed the Site Assessment (SA) and Village Assessment Survey (VAS) tools to assess the mobility, needs and vulnerabilities of Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) and returning IDPs across Ethiopia. This snapshot report will present key findings on needs and vulnerabilities, in particular those related to Cash and Voucher (CVA) assistance.
It is recommended to utilize cash and mixed modality (cash + in-kind) responses for these population groups if feasible. The finding that 80.5% of sites and 75.7% of villages mentioned a preference towards cash, whether by itself or mixed with in-kind/baskets, aligns with Ethiopia Cash Working Group (CWG) recommendations based on joint CVA feasibility assessments.
DTM API
Making global IDPs data accessible and reliable
The Displacement Tracking Matrix application programming interface (API) accelerates secure sharing of IDPs’ data, simplifying access to data across users and partners to support action, insight and foresight.
