The impact of conflict, climate and economy on agriculture in the return districts in Iraq – Iraq

This assignment is part of a larger research project, Reimagining Reintegration, conducted by IOM Iraq and Social Inquiry, which examines the sustainability of returns in 14 districts that have the largest proportion of returnees in the country. These are, in descending order of return, Mosul, Ramadi, Falluja, Telafar, Tikrit, Heet, Hawija, Hamdaniya, Shirqat, Kirkuk, Baiji, Sinjar, Khanaqin and Balad. The findings presented here are drawn from an original household survey and a selection of 2,260 returning respondents in these districts, collected between March and April 2022. The survey included a household module (applicable to the overall household situation), a personal module (in which perceptions of the household’s situation are collected). respondent) and a roster module (collecting the personal characteristics of each household member), covering topics related to demography, displacement and conflict history, safety and security, adequate living standards, livelihood and economic conditions, housing condition/restitution and security of tenure, civil documentation, social cohesion and public participation, and remedies and justice. The results of this project also include an analysis of sustainable reintegration in return districts and another brief explanation on the differences between male- and female-headed households and their implications for sustainable return.
