Measuring the costs of internal displacement: Eswatini, Ethiopia, Kenya and Somalia
Open accessAbstract
Sub-Saharan Africa is the region with the most people living in internal displacement associated with conflict or violence, with nearly 16.5 million at the end of 2018. It is where most new displacement associated with conflict and violence occurred in 2018. Disasters also led to more than 2.5 million new displacements in 2018, a historical record. This report presents estimates of the economic impacts of internal displacement on displaced people and host communities in Eswatini, Ethiopia, Kenya and Somalia. These estimates are based on the first standard survey developed to measure the financial consequences of internal displacement on livelihoods, housing, health, education and security.

The paper relies on this without support.
Quantitative assessments of the economic impact of internal displacement on IDPs and host communities are rare and inconsistent.
“Internal displacement can have a severe impact on the wellbeing and welfare of internally displaced people (IDPs) and their host communities, but quantitative assessments of this impact are rare and inconsistent.”
The paper relies on this without support.
The surveyed IDPs and hosts are representative of the broader populations affected by displacement in the study areas.
“One hundred and sixty-five IDPs and 154 members of the host community were interviewed in Nakuru County in July 2019.”
The paper relies on this without support.
Respondents' recall of pre-displacement conditions is sufficiently accurate for before-and-after comparisons.
“Some interviewees were unable to remember precise figures.”

Self-check
Percentages, sums and reported differences re-computed from the paper’s own numbers.
Each contradiction between two passages listed here was confirmed by an independent check.
Somalia schooling figures conflict on the cost barrier
MinorThe text places both sets of figures in children's home area, but says cost was a barrier for only 25 per cent of boys and 33 per cent of girls while 95 per cent and 88 per cent, respectively, identified it as the main barrier. A main barrier must also be a barrier.
“Cost was a barrier to schooling before displacement for 25 per cent of the boys and 33 per cent of the girls”
“the percentage of respondents who identified it as the main barrier in the home area rose to 95 per cent for boys and 88 per cent for girls.”
Eswatini host-sharing categories exceed the total surveyed
MinorThe three mutually exclusive categories account for about 106 per cent of interviewed hosts: two-thirds, plus 27 per cent, plus 12 per cent. Rounding cannot explain the excess.
“Two out of three interviewed hosts were sharing their home with one to three IDPs”
“27 per cent with four to six and 12 per cent with more than six.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
