Peru IOM Displacement Tracking Matrix: Subnational IDP Figures

Aggregated Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) figures for Peru provided by the International Organization for Migration (IOM) through their Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) API. The data contains non-sensitive displacement statistics updated as of March 2026, covering national and subnational administrative levels. It serves as a primary source for humanitarian and academic monitoring of forced migration within the country.

Use Cases

• Spatial analysis of IDP figures across Peru's Admin 1 and Admin 2 regions
• Humanitarian planning based on aggregated displacement counts per province
• Longitudinal study of forced displacement trends using IOM DTM standardized metrics

Strengths

• Official data from the International Organization for Migration (IOM)
• Subnational granularity at Admin 1 and Admin 2 levels
• Standardized reporting via the global DTM API framework

Limitations

• Aggregated nature prevents individual-level or household-level analysis
• Exclusion of sensitive data may result in incomplete displacement totals in high-risk zones
• Lack of specific column definitions in the provided metadata
