The DTM Emergency Event Tracking (EET) is deployed to track sudden displacement and population movements when needed. Activated on a need basis, EET utilises a broad network of Key Informants to capture best estimates of the affected population presence per location – a useful tool for humanitarian response planning and design. DTM teams activated EET to monitor the displacement of individuals and conditions of communities following episodes of drought and rapid political changes in Afghanistan.
This report derives information from 507 Key Informants across 9 provinces and 46 districts in Afghanistan. Key Informants in Helmand, Baghlan and Kabul most frequently reported an increase of IDP arrivals in their communities.
