On May 2nd and 3rd, 2024, Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) team members gathered in London for a Global DTM Retreat. For two days, we developed, exchanged, and launched ideas about internal displacement and other migration issues. Our collective efforts reconfigured DTM's data collection and consolidation systems. An evolution that strengthens the use of actionable, comparable, and insightful data and continues to align with our purpose of better supporting our humanitarian partners and response. https://dtm.iom.int

IOM - UN Migration’s Global Data Institute and the Institute for the Study of International Migration at Georgetown University have released a series of Focus Group Discussion Reports as part of the PROGRESS initiative. The third is from Yemen. Navigating the Effects of Displacement: Yemen Insights from Host Community, Internally Displaced and Returnee Populations Following the publication of the first edition of PROGRESS 2023, Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) conducted focus group discussions to better understand the effects of displacement and progress towards durable solutions from the perspectives of displaced individuals. This report from the Yemen country team presents a deeper country-specific dive into the findings of the qualitative analysis of 25 focus group discussions conducted between 1 and 15 August 2023, mainly in Ma’rib City and Harib, with 281 representatives of IDPs, host communities, and returnees. Just under one-third (32%) of the respondents were female. Regarding support, the top-mentioned needs include jobs and training—housing and repair. According to one participant, ‘The majority of us want the conflict to end and peace, security and safety prevail in the homeland, and for us to live a decent life in our homeland and among our families and loved ones, and for livelihoods, job opportunities and all services to be available in all fields.’- Male Returnee, Focus Group Participant, Yemen, August 2023. The PROGRESS initiative, including the upcoming 2024 edition, supports the urgent need to accelerate coordinated action to find solutions to prolonged internal displacement. PROGRESS amplifies the experiences of the internally displaced, returnees, and host communities through analyses and posing new questions, facilitating data for action. https://lnkd.in/gSv9XPJt #Data4Action #PROGRESS #VoicesOfCommunities IOM Yemen

📣 Data is vital for educators, students, and youth activists. As a data actor, Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) engages with youth to encourage critical reflection on public narratives around displacement and migration. We aim to increase the capacity to interpret and use displacement and migration data to support innovation from young leaders. Through a multifaceted approach, DTM looks to increase the impact and use of IOM’s data and empower youth. This engagement has three pillars: academic partnerships, data events and workshops, and student research projects. In line with these modalities, we have set up a youth engagement webpage that serves as a repository to document the outputs produced through these collaborations. The results showcase insightful and powerful pieces that keep you connected and informed. ➡ Take a look https://lnkd.in/g6qN9yDK IOM Regional Data Hub (EHoA), Snowflake, SOAS University of London, UCL Department of Risk and Disaster Reduction (RDR) #Data4Action #Data4Insight #Data4Foresight

IOM - UN Migration’s Global Data Institute and the Institute for the Study of International Migration have released a series of Focus Group Discussion Reports as part of the PROGRESS initiative. The second in this series is from Central African Republic and provides a better understanding the effects of displacement and progress towards durable solutions from the perspectives of displaced individuals. Navigating the Effects of Displacement: Central African Republic Insights From Internally Displaced, Host Community and Returnee Populations This report by the Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) country team presents a deeper country-specific dive into the findings of the qualitative analysis of six focus group discussions conducted between 1 and 15 August 2023 in Kaga-Bandoro, with 69 representatives of the internally displaced host community, and returnee populations. Half of the respondents were female. Regarding support, the top-mentioned needs include health—jobs and training. According to one participant, 'If the humanitarian community supports us in income-generating activities, we will be able to improve our financial situation and find definitive solutions to end our displacement.' - Internally Displaced Male, Focus Group Participant, Central African Republic, August 2023. The PROGRESS initiative, including the upcoming 2024 edition, supports the urgent need to accelerate coordinated action to find solutions to prolonged internal displacement. PROGRESS amplifies the experiences of the internally displaced, returnees, and host communities through analyses and posing new questions, facilitating data for action. ➡ https://lnkd.in/gTTDk5Rq #Data4Action #PROGRESS #VoicesOfCommunities

Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) recently released its Migration Situation Report for Kyrgyzstan in coordination with IOM Kyrgyzstan. This quarterly report aims to present migration dynamics, drawing upon data from 2022 and 2023 from national and international datasets on migration movements. It covers recent significant global and regional developments that continue to impact internal and international migration in the country. IOM Kyrgyzstan established a Mobility Tracking Matrix team (MTM) in 2022 to support the Government of the Kyrgyz Republic in contributing to evidence-based migration management and a mandate to develop a national collection system of migration-related data. The MTM is adapted to the context of Kyrgyzstan from the global DTM methodology—a system that monitors and tracks displacement and population mobility. A key takeaway in this report is that the top two primary drivers of migration out of the country remain dissatisfaction with wages (26%) and lack of job opportunities (17%). The government of Kyrgyzstan is actively working to diversify destination countries for migrant workers from Kyrgyzstan. Exploring opportunities in countries such as Germany, Japan, the Republic of Korea, and the UK through bilateral agreements paves the way for a more balanced and sustainable migration pattern. For example, under an approved 2023 quota in the UK, there are 2,000 places for workers from Kyrgyzstan. ➡ https://lnkd.in/gfChHTUb Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation Follow IOMKyrgyztan on X.

Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM)'s global support unit and IOM Regional Data Hub (EHSA)—East, Horn, and Southern Africa—hosted a four-day regional training in Kenya from June 25 to June 28, 2024. Day four, the last training day, began with an overview of the Periodic Global Report on the State of Solutions to Internal Displacement (PROGRESS) and the planned work for 2024. There is a sense of urgency to ramp up coordinated action to find solutions for the 75.9 million internally displaced globally (Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre, 2024). The PROGRESS 2024 initiative supports this effort by amplifying the experiences of the internally displaced, returnees, and host communities through data analyses, asking new questions to find solutions to prolonged internal displacement. We followed this with afternoon sessions on data responsibility and the Protection Information Management Support Network presentation. Next was a teamwork exercise on solutions simulating engagement scenarios with five key actors: the Chief of Mission, donors, government, and partners. The final session highlighted understanding how the DTM global team works together and strengthening activities with the Regional Data Hub and country-level colleagues. On behalf of the organising team, we’d like to thank all those who participated in person and the virtual space.
