Chad IOM Displacement Tracking: Subnational IDP Figures via API

Aggregated figures for internally displaced persons (IDPs) in Chad are provided by the International Organization for Migration (IOM) via the DTM public API. The data includes non-sensitive displacement counts at the Admin 1 and Admin 2 subnational levels as of March 2026.

Use Cases

• Analyzing displacement trends across Admin 1 and Admin 2 regions to identify high-concentration areas
• Integrating IDP figures into humanitarian response maps using subnational administrative boundaries
• Correlating conflict-violence tags with regional displacement counts to assess impact

Strengths

• Official data from the International Organization for Migration (IOM)
• Granular subnational aggregation at Admin 1 and Admin 2 levels
• Standardized CSV format for interoperability

Limitations

• Excludes sensitive individual-level data
• Lacks demographic breakdowns like age or gender in the API summary
• Temporal resolution depends on API update cycles
