This Multi-Sectorial Location Assessment (MSLA) report, which presents findings from the International Organization for Migration’s (IOM) Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) Round 13 assessments, aims to enhance understanding of the extent of internal displacements and the needs of affected populations in conflict-affected and disaster-affected districts of Mozambique. Data was collected between 5 - 29 December 2023 in close coordination with provincial government and Instituto Nacional de Gestão e Redução do Risco de Desastres (INGD) partners, and presents trends from 190 assessed sites hosting internally displaced persons (IDPs) across Northern (Cabo Delgado 95 sites, Nampula 2 sites, Niassa 7 sites), Central Mozambique (Sofala 36 sites, Manica 35 sites, Zambezia 10 sites, Tete 3 sites) and Southern (Inhambane 2 sites).

A total of 317,224 (IDPs were reported present in all 190 sites assessed. This represents a reduction of 19 per cent from MSLA Round 12. Reported figures, however, exclude displaced individuals living in host community settings. According to DTM Round 20 Mobility Tracking Report, as of August, an estimated 709,529 were identified living in both host communities and sites (582,764 IDPs in Northern Mozambique, and 126,765 IDPs in Central Mozambique).
