Between 8 August and 17 September 2022, IOM’s DTM deployed Site Assessment (SA) Round 31 and Village Assessment Survey (VAS) Round 14. SA is conducted in locations hosting a reported 20 or more IDP households, and the VAS is conducted in locations hosting a reported 20 or more returning IDP households that returned after 1 January 2021. The National Returns Map visualizes locations of return, density of return caseload, primary reasons for initial displacement, estimated return figures, and access constraints.
