Since June 2022, the International Organisation for Migration (IOM) Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) and the Joint IDP Profiling Service (JIPS) have been planning implementing and monitoring the ECHO-funded project: Environmental degradation and displacement: leveraging citizen-centred data to improve humanitarian programming. 


According to the Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre (IDMC), 2021 saw 38 million new displacements, of which 23.7 million – almost two thirds – were due to natural hazards. In response, IOM and JIPS will jointly lead a Collective Intelligence initiative targeting HIP priority areas on Disaster Displacement and Anticipatory Action for displacement events related to environment and climate related disasters in the East and Horn of Africa. The findings from this study can be used to feed early warning systems already in place in Burundi.
