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.
