North Macedonia Internal Displacements: Annual Stock and New Displacement Cases

North Macedonia data from the Global Internal Displacement Database provides annual estimates of internal displacement. The dataset, maintained by the Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre, includes validated figures for people living in displacement at year-end and counts of new displacement incidents. It is updated regularly, with a last recorded update in March 2026.

Use Cases

• Analyze long-term displacement trends based on annual stock figures.
• Model drivers of new displacement incidents based on the flow metric.
• Assess humanitarian needs based on the validated displacement figures.

Strengths

• Data is validated by the Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre (IDMC).
• Tracks two distinct metrics: population stock and new displacement flows.
• License is CC-BY-3.0-IGO, allowing for open use with attribution.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Freshness should be verified as the last update date is in the future (2026-03-18).
