Can community-based action reduce disaster displacement? In Gambia, early results say it can. 💪 Floods trigger most disaster displacements. But Gambia’s new disaster management policy & strategy are mitigating their impacts. By putting communities at the heart of the response.

🌊Disaster displacement can affect anyone, anywhere. But it's not inevitable. With reliable data, targeted policies & long-term investments, decision-makers can reduce the scale and impact of disaster displacement.

📍 Sudan. Syria. Colombia. DR Congo. Yemen. Over half of all people internally displaced by conflict & violence live in just these five countries. Many have fled multiple times, many have been displaced for years. They need immediate aid & investments in long-term solutions.

📍Yemen: 4.8 million people were living in internal displacement at the end of 2024, the 6th-highest figure globally. While conflict displacements have decreased since 2022, limited access to basic services & livelihoods continues to prevent millions from rebuilding their lives.

In 2024, historic floods in Rio Grande do Sul triggered 775,000 internal displacements. 🌊 Now, floods in Brazil are again displacing thousands of people. To reduce future risks, we need to include displacement data in disaster plans & policies.

People forced to flee disasters face both economic & non-economic losses and damages. Internal displacement is one of them, disrupting lives, & livelihoods. Development financing, including investments in disaster risk reduction, can reduce the scale & impacts of displacement.

Internal displacement is growing rapidly 📈 Today, 80% of internally displaced people live in low- and lower-middle income countries, where displacement can undermine development progress. Development financing can help governments address displacement sustainably. #FFD4

🌍 This #DesertificationandDroughtDay, we're highlighting the risk of drought displacement in the Horn of Africa. Our model estimates how many people, in any given year, could be displaced by drought and floods in Ethiopia, Somalia & Sudan. Swipe for the figures ⬇️

Disasters triggered 264.8 million internal displacements in the past decade 🌊 In 2024 alone, disasters forced people to flee 45.8 million times, the highest figure on record. Disaster displacement isn't inevitable. With reliable data, governments can reduce risks & impacts.

Conflict displaced millions of people last year, many of them more than once. Sudan & DR Congo made up nearly half of all conflict-related movements of people. Investments in recovery & lasting solutions can help people rebuild. More in #GRID2025 ➡️ bit.ly/4dhB2qb
