The IDMC, established in 1998 by the Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC), is the leading international body monitoring internal displacement worldwide

JIPS - the Joint IDP Profiling Service - is an inter-agency service and was set up in 2009. Based in Geneva, JIPS is supervised by a Steering Committee comprised of the Danish Refugee Council (DRC), the Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre - Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC-IDMC), the International Organization for Migration (IOM), the Office of the Special Rapporteur on the Human Rights of IDPs, the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (UNOCHA) and the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA).

The PARK online was created to complement existing guidance on profiling and assessment activities (such as the Guidance on Profiling IDPs produced by NRC-IDMC and OCHA, 2008). It does this by making methodologies, tools and other practical resources used in previous profiling and assessment exercises readily available to practitioners around the world.
