The Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) is a system designed to regularly and systematically capture, process and disseminate information on the movements and evolving needs of displaced populations and other mobile populations, providing critical information to decision-makers and responders during crises, supporting advocacy and informing operational planning and response, and contributing to better understandings of population flows. In West and Central Africa, DTM produces a variety of products aimed at meeting the information needs of government and humanitarian actors and at deepening the understanding of displacement and population flows in the WCA region.
