The EGRISS 2024 Annual Report: Pursuing sustainable change in refugee, IDPs, and statelessness statistics: mainstreaming the International Recommendations and advancing regional engagement is the fourth annual report produced by the Expert Group on Refugee, IDP and Statelessness Statistics (EGRISS). The publication highlights the main achievements and the collective work of the group between January and December 2024. With a foreword signed by the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) and the Institut de la Statistique de Djibouti (INSTAD), this document showcases key achievements through two key channels: mainstreaming the International Recommendations on Refugees (IRRS), IDP (IRIS), and Statelessness (IROSS) Statistics into key global statistical frameworks and deepening regional engagement to support implementation through peer learning and local adaptation.
The report also presents key findings from the 2024 iteration of the Global Annual Inclusion (GAIN) Survey, which monitors global uptake of the Recommendations and collected data of over 100 country-led examples last year alone. It also includes in-depth case studies illustrating their practical applications. Looking ahead, EGRISS sets a priority agenda as it enters the final year of its third mandate and prepares for an extension.
