Mission and objectives

IOM KGZ organization mission TBD

Context

The UN Volunteer assignment supports implementation of the Mobility Tracking Matrix (MTM) in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan. IOM’s Mobility Tracking Matrix (MTM) was established in 2022 in Kyrgyzstan (more information: https://dtm.iom.int/kyrgyzstan). MTM is adapted to the context in Kyrgyzstan based on IOM’s Global Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) methodology. MTM is a system that tracks and monitors displacement and population mobility. It is designed to regularly and systematically capture, process and disseminate information to provide a better understanding of the movements and evolving needs of various mobile populations, whether on site or en route.

Through project funding from the European Union and the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation, the IOM MTM programme collects data through its so-called Baseline Mobility Assessment (BMA), Return Migrant Survey (RMS) and Potential Migrants Survey (PMS). Data-collection activity will take place across Kyrgyzstan and aim to further enhance the understanding of human mobility in, to and from Kyrgyzstan and related trends, needs and vulnerabilities.
