This indicator visualizes the estimated number of people who were displaced due to disasters and were living in internal displacement as of the end of each year. These figures include not only people displaced in the reference year, but also those who were displaced years or decades ago and were continuing to live in displacement at that point in time.
IDMC's methodology to estimate disaster stock at the end of each year is based on time-series and housing destruction data collected for specific disaster events, as well as aggregated figures on the number of people displaced by disasters recorded by governments and other stakeholders. IDMC considers these estimates as conservative.
