Benin Internally Displaced Persons Figures at Admin 1 and 2 Levels

Benin displacement data from the International Organization for Migration (IOM) provides non-sensitive internally displaced person (IDP) figures aggregated at Admin 1 and Admin 2 levels. Sourced from the DTM API, these records support humanitarian monitoring of conflict and forced displacement as of March 2026.

Use Cases

• Mapping IDP concentrations using Admin 1 and Admin 2 geographic identifiers
• Trend analysis of displacement figures to monitor humanitarian crises in Benin
• Integrating non-sensitive IDP counts into regional vulnerability assessments

Strengths

• Sourced from the official IOM DTM API
• Provides subnational granularity at Admin 1 and Admin 2 levels
• Standardized for humanitarian interoperability

Limitations

• Aggregated nature prevents individual-level analysis
• Excludes sensitive data which may omit specific vulnerable populations
• Specific column headers and row counts are not defined in the source metadata
