Lebanon: Displacement Tracking Matrix: Mobility Snapshot - Round 72 (16 January 2025)
Overview
The International Organization for Migration (IOM) conducts daily monitoring of population movements to support preparedness and response efforts. This work is carried out in partnership with the Disaster Risk Management Unit, technically supported by the United Nations Development Programme, to triangulate and verify data from IOM’s mobility tracking exercise and the Lebanese Red Cross household registration exercise.
Mobility Tracking data indicates that 871,859 internally displaced persons (IDPs) have begun returning to their communities. Given the complexity and fluidity of population movements in the country, these observed returns cannot be considered permanent and should be viewed as a snapshot in time, as many people remain on the move.
