@IOMSudan, @UNHCRinSudan & @Inquiry_org kicked off field team training and data collection in North, West, and Central Darfur for the #Refugee & #IDP Profiling Towards Sustainable Peace and Durable Solutions in Darfur project, supported by the @UNPeacebuilding Fund #PBF
🚨Public release of the 2022 household #profiling of the south of #Iraq: "A Climate of Fragility".
The joint webportal w/@IOMIraq provides access to key findings from the near 4,000 surveys, an interactive dashboard, topline results, and an open dataset.

This Iraq profiling covered topics ranging from wellbeing and livelihoods (and links with environment) to governance, social grievances, and security––a key aim was to answer who is most affected, where, and by how much.

The ongoing 4,000 household surveys in Basra, Thiqar & Missan will generate a unique #baseline for dynamics in this critical part of Iraq that will become public and be a reference for further work there. Updates of this joint @IOMIraq @inquiry_org available in our linkedin site.
New 📚 out from our #justice pillar "Movements Before Mechanisms: Community Grievances and Windows of Opportunity for #Restorative Justice in a #Transitional Justice Context". Full report and programmatic brief available at 👇 social-inquiry.org/reports-1…
The link btwn #environment and #conflict is not linear. It is strongly shaped by economic insecurity and rule of law. Here's our latest qualitative research on the topic in #rural Iraq w/ @WFP_Iraq which formed the backbone for these two conflict analyses: social-inquiry.org/reports-1…

It is true the conflict in Kirkuk and largely in other disputed territories is political, but my fear is that it has and continue to seep into the communities as well. This spans extensive data that we have been collecting @inquiry_org. Bottom-up and top-down look is needed.
#COP26. The fact that 12% of the 2M residents in #Basra are #migrants from nearby districts and that more than half left due to water scarcity and death of livestock highlights the magnitude of the climate challenge and its impact also on the receiving environments. Our report👇
A recent IOM🇮🇶+@inquiry_org study on climate-induced informal urbanization estimates that 12% of the current population of the city of Basra are migrants, having mainly come from rural areas in the past 10 years.

In the midst of #Iraq’s worsening #watercrisis, support is urgently needed to mitigate needs, avoid further displacement and prevent the magnification of existing social problems.

📑 New joint report with the @IOMIraq Research Unit. Taking #Basra as a case study, we analyze the dynamics of #climate #migration into cities already experiencing widespread degradation in economic security and governance👉social-inquiry.org/reports-1…
Something we have been working on for the last 3 years w/@USIP @Sanadirq: a new wave of data for the Conflict and Stabilization Monitoring Framework in Ninewa Iraq coming out, six months after the previous. Key indicators on cohesion, governance, justice, protection, all at hand.

This was in the presentation in Baghdad of our research study "Streets tell stories" with @Cordaid on MHPSS and post-conflict social cohesion. Thanks for @NLinIQ for taking the lead.

“Invisible wounds are most difficult to heal. Let’s break the taboo around mental health, because only peaceful minds lead to peaceful societies,” Ambassador @MRentenaar at @Cordaid and @inquiry_org's event on the crucial relationship between #MHPSS and social cohesion in #Iraq.
