DRC – Internal Displacement Overview 2024

The Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) has a complex internal displacement situation with a diverse set of drivers and impacts. In the country’s eastern provinces, armed conflict and insecurity have long been the primary drivers of the large-scale protracted displacement that the region experiences. On top of the large-scale humanitarian crisis in the east of the country, other regions of the DRC have experienced conflict, insecurity, and disasters such as floods and landslides.  A complete understanding of the displacement situation across the entire DRC is vital to inform both near-term humanitarian assistance, as well as engaging a wider array of stakeholders involved in long-term programming. This report presents an updated country-level displacement overview produced by DTM in the DRC and combines data from targeted Mobility Tracking (MT) in the country’s four eastern provinces (conducted between July and August 2024) as well as from a separate exercise (known as MT Light), covering the remaining 22 provinces, for which data was collected between June and July 2024.
