Outcomes and commitments on internal displacement of the World Humanitarian Summit 2016, para. 65
Paragraph- Paragraph text
- The lack of reliable and comprehensive data on internal displacement hampers the ability to respond effectively and put in place immediate and longer-term measures to reduce displacement. Detailed profiling of situations of internally displaced persons is needed to ensure that information goes beyond simple numbers and basic needs to include population data disaggregated by sex, age, location and diversity, particular protection or other concerns, coping mechanisms and capacities within internally displaced populations as well as knowledge about host communities they live with and affect. Gathering data on those outside camps has proven difficult and there is a need to find creative solutions to ensure that they do not fall through protection and support nets, including by exploring new technology.
