Number of unique individuals who were forcibly displaced and were clients of the organization during the reporting period.
Organizations should footnote all assumptions used as well as their categorization of forcibly displaced groups served. See usage guidance for further information.
This metric is intended to capture the number of individuals served by the organization who have been forcibly displaced, including refugees, asylum seekers, internally displaced persons, stateless persons, and returnees.
For more information on forcible displacement, see the United Nations (UN)'s World Refugee website (https://www.un.org/en/events/refugeeday/background.shtml) and the World Health Organization (WHO)'s displaced people summary (https://www.who.int/environmental_health_emergencies/displaced_people/en/).
This metric may help describe the HOW MUCH Scale dimension, which helps estimate the number of the targeted stakeholders experiencing the outcome. For more on the alignment of IRIS metrics to the five dimensions of impact, see specific guidance document. No single metric is sufficient to understand an impact; rather, metrics are selected as a set across all dimensions of impact. When possible, the selection of metrics to measure and describe the five dimensions should be based on best practice and evidence.
This metric has 0 related submetrics.
Metrics identified as "cross-category" are those that are relevant to any IRIS+ Impact Category or Impact Theme (i.e., these metrics are not specific to any particular industry/category or theme).

IRIS Metrics Work Better in Sets
To use IRIS metrics—and the resulting data—to understand impact performance, IRIS metrics should be used and analyzed in generally accepted sets and according to well-defined objectives. IRIS+ gives you access to generally accepted Core Metrics Sets aligned to common Impact Themes and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
