    Between 01 August and 02 September 2023, IOM’s DTM deployed Site Assessment (SA) Round 34 and Village Assessment Survey (VAS) Round 17, carrying out a multisectoral location assessment. SA is conducted in locations hosting a reported 20 or more IDP households, and the VAS is conducted in locations hosting a reported 20 or more returning IDP households that returned after 1 January 2021. It is to be noted that Amhara region was largely uncovered this round due to increased insecurity, and both the IDP and returning IDP caseloads should likely be higher.

    According to the data collected through the Village Assessment Survey round 17 between August and September 2023, there were an estimated 2,530,101 returning IDPs (552,773 returning IDP households) across 2,072 assessed, accessible villages in Ethiopia. The highest returning IDP caseloads nationwide were in the regions of Tigray (1,503,141 returning IDPs, 59.41%), Amhara (an estimated 389,937 returning IDPs, 15.41%) and Afar (an estimated 222,894 returning IDPs, 8.81%).

    In June 2023, IOM DTM deployed the Village Assessment Survey (VAS) Round 16 (figure update) in 64 villages across Afar, Amhara, Oromia, SNNP and South West Ethiopia Peoples' regions of Ethiopia. The VAS Round 15 data (November 2022 - January 2023) was compiled with the figure update VAS Round 16 (June 2023) data to develop a national returning IDP figure updated to June 2023 for 1,791 villages, excluding Tigray region. The villages assessed during both Round 15 and Round 16 are not duplicated in the consolidated figure.

    As of June 2023, IOM DTM estimated 1,982,506 returning IDPs (441,644 returning IDP households) across 1,791 assessed, accessible villages in Ethiopia, excluding Tigray region. The data for Tigray region is shared separately.

    The purpose of VAS is to assess the capacity of villages to absorb returns through the availability of services with a focus on livelihoods and reintegration. Demographic information was collected through representative sampling at the village level at a 95% confidence interval and a 10% margin of error. Overall, 1887154 IDP returnees and 424162 returnee households were identified.

    Through Village Assessment Survey round 11 (Dec 2021-Feb 2022), a total of 2.85 million returning IDPs were identified in 2,378 villages across 11 regions (except Tigray region due to a lack of fuel and cash). 2.7 million returning IDPs (94%) were initially displaced due to conflict, 54,129 returning IDPs (2%) were initially displaced due to seasonal floods and 51,540 returning IDPs due to drought (2%). Significantly, this round’s returning IDP number has increased substantially due to the mass return of 1.5 million returning IDPs, mainly concentrated in the east of Amhara region (North Shewa, North Wello and South Wello zones), following the withdrawal of armed conflict.
