IDU: Daily Internal Displacement Flows in Peru

Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre (IDMC) provides daily provisional data on new internal displacements in Peru caused by conflict and disasters. The IDU dataset offers initial assessments of displacement flows, updated daily with data from the beginning of 2025. Finalized and validated estimates are later published in the annual Global Internal Displacement Database.

Use Cases

• Monitor daily displacement flows based on provisional event data.
• Analyze displacement trends triggered by conflict based on the daily updated information.
• Assess displacement trends triggered by natural disasters based on the daily updated information.
• Compare provisional daily data with validated annual stock and flow estimates from the GIDD.

Strengths

• Updated daily, providing timely event data.
• Covers displacement events from the beginning of 2025.
• Data is provided by the authoritative Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre (IDMC).

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Data is provisional and requires preprocessing to avoid double-counting, as noted in the description.
