Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) In North America
Related Facts & Figures
The figures below are taken from the latest estimates of Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) by the Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre (iDMC), the leading international body monitoring conflict-induced internal displacement worldwide, which was set-up by the Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC). These figures use the United Nations statistics (the ones most commonly quoted by the media), along with statistics from other sources. Whilst the UNHCR & UNRWA quote the number of IDPs at around 20 million, the iDMC figures show a total of 27 million.

Based on its monitoring and data collection activities, the Centre advocates for durable solutions to the plight of the internally displaced in line with international standards. The IDMC also carries out training activities to enhance the capacity of local actors to respond to the needs of internally displaced people (IDPs). In its work, the Centre cooperates with and provides support to local and national civil society initiatives.
