Viet Nam Internal Displacements Updates: Daily Conflict and Disaster Flows

Daily-updated provisional data on new internal displacements in Viet Nam caused by conflicts and disasters, starting from 2025. Provided by the Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre (IDMC), this dataset offers initial assessments of displacement flows. The finalized and validated estimates are available in the annual Global Internal Displacement Database (GIDD).

Use Cases

• Track daily displacement flows based on the event-driven, provisional data updates.
• Analyze displacement triggers based on the conflict and disaster categorization.
• Model humanitarian needs based on the provisional estimates of new displacements.
• Cross-reference provisional IDU data with validated GIDD stock data for trend analysis.

Strengths

• Updated daily, providing near real-time insights.
• Sourced from the authoritative Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre (IDMC).
• Covers both conflict and disaster-induced displacements.
• Data is available under the CC-BY-3.0-IGO license.

Limitations

• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Data is provisional and may require preprocessing to avoid double-counting as noted in the description.
