This dataset updates: Every day

Conflict and disaster population movement (flows) data for Somalia. The data is the most recent available and covers a 180 day time period. Internally displaced persons are defined according to the 1998 Guiding Principles as people or groups of people who have been forced or obliged to flee or to leave their homes or places of habitual residence, in particular as a result of armed conflict, or to avoid the effects of armed conflict, situations of generalized violence, violations of human rights, or natural or human-made disasters and who have not crossed an international border. The IDMC's Event data, sourced from the Internal Displacement Updates (IDU), offers initial assessments of internal displacements reported within the last 180 days. This dataset provides provisional information that is continually updated on a daily basis, reflecting the availability of data on new displacements arising from conflicts and disasters. The finalized, carefully curated, and validated estimates are then made accessible through the Global Internal Displacement Database (GIDD). The IDU dataset comprises preliminary estimates aggregated from various publishers or sources.

This dataset updates: Every month

The INFORM Severity Index is a regularly updated, and easily interpreted model for measuring the severity of humanitarian crisis globally. It is a composite index, which brings together 31 core indicators, organised in three dimensions: impact, conditions of affected people, and complexity. All the indicators are scored on a scale of 1 to 5. These scores are then aggregated into components, the three dimensions (Impact, Conditions, Complexity), and the overall severity category based on the analytical framework. The three dimensions have been weighted according to their contribution to severity: impact of the crisis (20%); conditions of affected people (50%); complexity (30%). The weightings are currently a best estimate and will be refined using expert analysis and statistical methods. Each crisis will fall into 1 of 5 categories based on their score ranging from very low to high. ACAPS – an INFORM technical partner – is responsible for collection, cleaning, analysis and input of data into the model and the production of the final results.

This dataset updates: As needed

This dataset provides Palmer Drought Severity Index (PDSI) values for Ethiopia from 2020 to 2024, offering insights into drought conditions across the country. The PDSI is a widely used drought index that measures deviations in soil moisture conditions from the long-term average, helping to identify both drought and wet conditions. Unlike traditional PDSI calculations that rely on the Thornthwaite method for estimating potential evapotranspiration (ET), this dataset utilizes a more physically based Penman-Monteith reference ET, which accounts for: Solar radiation Temperature Humidity Windspeed Interpretation of PDSI Values: PDSI between -0.5 and 0.5 → Near-normal soil moisture conditions PDSI < -4 → Extreme drought PDSI > 4 → Very wet conditions

The dataset includes internally displaced persons (IDPs) and returnees at the sub-national level, along with information on the reasons for displacement, places of origin, and dates of multiple displacements. In the context of Zimbabwe’s drought response, displacement dynamics remain complex and evolving. Reports indicate movements of IDPs from drought-affected regions to areas with better access to water and resources. While some individuals have permanently resettled, others frequently move between their place of displacement and their area of origin.
