Africa has been reporting rising levels of internal displacement since 2009. In 2023, the Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre (IDMC) reported that at least 35 million people were still internally displaced by the end of the year – a figure that has tripled over the past 15 years. IDMC anticipates a further increase in the number of internally displaced persons (IDPs) in 2024, emphasizing the ongoing severity of the internal displacement crisis for the region.
