Guadeloupe Internal Displacement Data: New Displacements and IDP Stock

The Global Internal Displacement Database (GIDD) from the Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre (IDMC) provides validated annual estimates of internal displacement. It tracks two primary metrics: the stock of people living in displacement at year-end and the flow of new displacement incidents. The dataset for Guadeloupe is licensed under CC-BY-3.0-IGO and was last updated on 2026-03-18.

Use Cases

• Analyze trends in new displacement incidents based on the 'New Displacements' metric.
• Model the long-term stock of displaced populations based on the 'People Displaced' or 'Stock' figures.
• Assess the impact of conflict or natural disasters on internal displacement patterns in Guadeloupe.

Strengths

• Data is validated by the Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre (IDMC).
• Tracks two distinct, standardized metrics: stock and flow of displacement.
• Uses a formal definition of IDPs aligned with the 1998 Guiding Principles.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
