The International Organization for Migration’s (IOM) Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) in partnership with the World Food Programme (WFP) conducted a biometric registration exercise in Koch County, Unity between July and August 2019. Although IOM had previously conducted a biometric registration in Koch Town in 2018 (report here), this registration covered two more locations (Mir Mir and Buaw) as well as a verification exercise to determine identify registered individuals still present in Koch Town as well as to register those who newly arrived tat the location. At the end of the exercise, a total of 18,229 individuals (4,203 households) were biometrically registered.
