The purpose of this document is to present the official figures and estimates that NTMI considers best based and most recent of the population born in El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras currently residing in the United States.
In close coordination with the field teams of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and CONMIGRANTS, on October 31, 2018, the module for monitoring and estimating flows of migrants was implemented from the monument to the Divine Savior of the World to the “Polyhedron” that divides the routes to the different official borders with Guatemala with the objective of supporting humanitarian action and the protection of vulnerable populations.
Additionally, rapid surveys were carried out to characterize the population in transit and identify needs to facilitate the humanitarian support of all actors at the levels of transit, reception and reintegration.
In support of the emergency caused by the eruption of the Volcano of Fire, the International Organization for Migration (IOM) and the United Nations Central Emergency Response Fund (CERF) offers the Government of Guatemala the information compiled with the methodology of the Human Mobility Monitoring Matrix (DTM). The DTM is a very flexible tool that is implemented through technology solutions to generate information quickly. This information was collected on Sunday, June 17, with the support of the technical staff coordinator of each official shelter registered by SOSEP. The results are presented classified into rounds.

In order to provide tools to the State so that actions, plans and policies in favor of mobile populations are supported by transparent, verifiable and secure information, the United Nations Agency for Migration (IOM) presents the Monitoring Matrix of Human Mobility (DTM).
Conceptualized in 2004 in Iraq, the DTM has been continuously improved through years of operational experience in countries in both conflict situations and natural disasters. This instrument is essential in the generation of information and primary data on displacement at national and global levels.
During the period from August to October 2016, IOM implemented the DTM in the Northern Triangle of Central America to identify municipalities to be prioritized from the perspective of its service providers, at the governmental and non-governmental level.
This report briefly describes the methodology used and the general results of data collection, as well as some indicators at the municipal level.
The DTM can be implemented in four ways: baseline evaluation at different geographical levels, flow monitoring, registration and surveys. In the case of the Northern Triangle, a baseline assessment was made at the municipal level, which covered 833 mayorships in the 3 countries.
To collect the information, key people at the municipal level were interviewed to learn about their perception of the number of returned migrants, foreign persons in transit and internally displaced persons, whether due to violence, natural disasters or climate change.
IOM delivers this instrument to the Guatemalan State with the intention of supporting the review, reinforcement and design of public policies and development projects based on international information and criteria for the benefit of all migrants.
