Online Survey has begun among IDPs In the autumn of 2020 Azerbaijan National Army has liberated the territories of our country that was occupied for almost 30 years. Rehabilitation and comprehensive development of these areas are one of main tasks of state and society. The central goal of the process is the return of IDPs to their homes. It is important to predict the repatriation potential as accurately as possible in order to organize their return effectively. In this regard, it is crucial to study the wishes, intentions and suggestions of IDPs. For this purpose, the "Working Group on Academic and Educational Affairs" of the Interdepartmental Center under the "Coordinating Headquarters for the centralized settlement of issues in the liberated territories of the Republic of Azerbaijan" established by the President order, conducted systematic research with the involvement of local and foreign experts.

One of the such research is a study entitled "Preparation of proposals for the forecasting and effective organization of repatriation to post-conflict areas of Azerbaijan" implemented at ADA University. Several sociological surveys were organised as part of this study. The first was an online survey. This survey was held on the basis of a state order by scholars working as an independent group and consisting of specialists from several research and educational institutions. The confidentiality of the personal data of the respondents and their answers was fully guaranteed. The survey was open to public as of February 22, 2021. It took only 5-6 minutes to complete the questionnaire.
