Tunisia Internal Displacement Data: New Displacements and IDP Stock

Annual estimates of internal displacement in Tunisia, tracking both the stock of people living in displacement and new displacement incidents. The data is maintained by the Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre (IDMC) and aligns with the 1998 Guiding Principles on Internal Displacement. It serves as a validated resource for analyzing long-term displacement trends resulting from conflict, violence, and disasters.

Use Cases

• Modeling displacement trends over time based on annual stock and flow figures.
• Assessing the impact of conflict or natural disasters on internal displacement in Tunisia.
• Comparing displacement metrics (stock vs. new incidents) to understand population movement dynamics.

Strengths

• Data is validated by the Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre (IDMC).
• Tracks two distinct metrics: year-end IDP stock and new displacement incidents.
• License is CC-BY-3.0-IGO, allowing for open use and sharing.

Limitations

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