Bangladesh IOM DTM: Aggregated IDP Figures at Admin 2 Level

Aggregated population figures for internally displaced persons (IDP) in Bangladesh, sourced from the International Organization for Migration (IOM) Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) API. The data provides non-sensitive displacement counts at the country, Admin 1, and Admin 2 levels as of March 2026. It is designed for humanitarian and academic use to track subnational displacement trends.

Use Cases

• Analyzing IDP population distribution across Bangladesh's Admin 1 and Admin 2 regions
• Mapping humanitarian needs based on aggregated displacement figures
• Correlating conflict-violence events with subnational displacement counts

Strengths

• Official IOM source data
• Subnational granularity at the Admin 2 level
• Standardized administrative hierarchy for Bangladesh

Limitations

• Aggregated data only, preventing site-specific analysis
• Specific column headers and row counts are not predefined in the source metadata
• Excludes sensitive protection-related displacement details
