📍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.
Many displaced families in #Yemen live in small camps with no basic services. We are on the ground, providing ID papers, solar powered lighting, clean water and hygiene kits, with support from @ECHO_MiddleEast as part of the Yemen Displacement Response Consortium.

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.
💸 Disasters cost more than we realise. Broken economies, deepening poverty: the fallout keeps growing. At #FFD4 in Sevilla, Spain, leaders have a choice: keep responding to costly disasters – or invest in resilience. #FinancingOurFuture

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.

📊 Disasters triggered nearly 265 million forced movements of people over the past decade. Storms & floods drove 89% of these internal displacements. Disaster displacement is not inevitable. Better data, targeted policies & long-term investments can reduce its risks & impacts.

When governments address internal displacement, they not only help displaced communities find lasting solutions but also unlock development.

Internal displacement is where conflict, poverty & climate risks collide, hitting the most vulnerable the hardest. 📈 Since 2009, the number of countries facing both conflict & disaster displacement has tripled. It's not just a humanitarian crisis, but a development challenge.

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 ➡️
