DTM COVID-19 impact assessment is implemented as part of the Mobility Tracking activities aimed at understanding the socio-economic impact of mobility restrictions and curfews on the vulnerable people on move in Libya.

Throughout June the number of confirmed COVID-19 cases in Libya(1) steadily increased, while simultaneously a significant socio-economic impact related to restrictions on freedom of movement and the resulting loss of livelihoods was also observed. Although COVID-19 is first and foremost a health crisis, it has also resulted in associated socio-economic and protection crises as acknowledged in the UN policy brief on COVID-19 and people on the move.
