IOM DTM Syria displacement and return estimates by governorate

IOM DTM baseline-round estimates of internally displaced persons and IDP returnees per Syrian governorate and nationally, from February 2025. Field assessment estimates, not registration counts.

Description

IOM DTM baseline-round estimates of internally displaced persons and IDP returnees per Syrian governorate and nationally, from February 2025. Field assessment estimates, not registration counts.

Methodology

These are field estimates from IOM Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) baseline rounds, activated in Syria from February 2025 after the December 2024 shift — not a registration of individuals. They count internally displaced persons and returnees per governorate per round, and figures are revised round to round. They differ methodologically from UNHCR registration counts, so the two should not be summed or directly compared.
