The Forced Displacement Survey (FDS) is UNHCR’s new household survey programme that is designed to standardize, streamline, and produce high-quality and timely data on people forced to flee. It produces multi-topic data which is comparable across countries and over time. Aligned with international statistical standards, the FDS provides the evidence needed to plan development programmes for refugees, asylum-seekers and host communities. © UNHCR/Colin Delfosse
