I. Definition of the concept of profiling

What is profiling of internally displaced persons?

Profiling of IDP situations ‘’is the collaborative process of identifying internally displaced groups or individuals through data collection, including counting and analysis, in order to take action to advocate on their behalf, to protect and assist them and, eventually, to help bring about a solution to their displacement’’ (PARK; 20120:14).

Several approaches are possible, in combination (quick estimates, household surveys, focus group discussions, interviews with key informants, etc.)

II. Context and justification

Why should this exercise be conducted?[specify the context and justification for the profiling]

[E.g. massive displacement of populations following the conflict/disaster; wish to better plan interventions to support the affected population/ find long-term solutions to internal displacement; lack of up-to-date and reliable information; in order to provide evidence based input to Government policies of the internal displacement situation; etc. ]

III. Objectives and expected results

[Specify the general and specific results as well as the expected outcomes, based on the project description of the profiling exrecise].

IV. Methodology

1. Type of approach: • Enumeration• Survey of a sample of households• Focus group discussions• Key informant interviews

2. Target population:• Everyone living on displaced persons' sites

3. Sources of information:• Heads of households (for the household survey)• Community Groups (for the focus group discussions)• Individual key informants (for key informant interviews)
