Reports

In the framework of its conflict prevention and management activities, IOM is currently implementing a project in the Grande Sido département (Moyen-Chari province). One of the components of this project is the monitoring of transhumance movements and the collection of data on alerts related to conflicts between herders and farmers. This dashboard presents the results of the data collected from December 2019 to March 2020. During this period, great transhumance movements from Chad to the Central African Republic (CAR) occurred. Usually, these movements occur earlier in the year (often starting in September). However, during the 2019 year, rainfall was spread over a longer period of time. As a result, herders stayed for a longer period of time in the provinces of Chad. The data indicate that 90 per cent of cattle was headed towards CAR, while 10 per cent came from CAR. Although the main movement observed was in the direction towards CAR, a number of herders would sometimes cross the border towards Chad to graze their cattle, following the availability of water along the border.

Le présent rapport présente les résultats clés des évaluations rapides mises en œuvre du 15 au 20 mai 2020 par l’Organisation internationale pour les migrations (OIM) à travers la Matrice de suivi des déplacements (DTM- Displacement Tracking Matrix) à la suite d’affrontement communautaires ayant touché la ville de Ndélé (préfecture du Bamingui-Bangoran) entre mars et mai 2020. Le rapport présente des chiffres relatifs au nombre, au profil, aux conditions et aux besoins et vulnérabilités des populations déplacées par les tensions intercommunautaires. Il a pour but de fournir des données qui offrent une compréhension plus complète et affinée des déplacements et a pour finalité le développement et la mise en œuvre de programmes de réponse humanitaire eu bénéfice de ces populations

With the onset of the rainy season in Nigeria’s conflict-affected northeastern State of Borno, varying degrees of damages are expected to infrastructures (self-made and constructed) in camps and camp-like settings. This is so because the rains are more often than not accompanied by very high winds and have been known to cause serious damage to properties.   On 26 May 2020, IOM’s DTM program carried out an assessment to ascertain the level of damage sustained in camps and camp-like settings due to heavy windstorm and rainfall between 23rd and 25th May 2020. Overall, 18 camps were affected in Gwoza, Bama, Maiduguri, Jere and konduga LGAs. The worst-hit of the camps assessed was the Muna El-Badawy Camp in Jere Lga where a heavy windstorm reignited unguarded cooking fires. This led to a fire outbreak that left 622 makeshift shelters damaged and an estimated 3,576 individuals without shelter, with two casualties recorded in the disaster.   Other affected camps are: GSS Camp, Reception/Transit, Umbazah Rock Side, Wege Arrival Centre in Gwoza LGA; Bakasi Camp, Stadium Camp, Teachers Village, NYSC Camp, Musune, Suleimanti, Kaduwa I, Dogon Iche, Borgozo Camp, Shuwari 5 Camp in Maiduguri Metropolitan Council (MMC); Farm Centre in Jere LGA and 250 Housing Estate (Dalori II) in Konduga LGA. Major complaints in the assessed camps are lack of shelter repair kits for reinforcement and blockage of drainage system restricting proper flow of water. Although the Camp Coordination and Camp Management (CCCM) unit of IOM have responded with the provision of over 100 sand bags, there is still a major need of shelter, shelter repair kits, construction and cleaning of drainages as a preparedness measure in all camps.  

As of April 2020, DTM in the region tracked 6.3M Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) and 2.8M Returnees, as reported during the last round of DTM assessments for each country, or through secondary data sources.  The figures of IDPs and returnees for Ethiopia are as of Round 21 (Feb 2020),  and the figures for South Sudan are as of Round 7 (Nov 2019).  The IDP figure for Burundi is as of Round 51 (Mar 2020). Displacement figures for Kenya and Uganda were reported as of December 2019. While DTM coverage is being expanded in Somalia, the IDP figure indicated on this map is the most up-to-date data available shared by the Information Management Working Group - Technical Working Group (IMWG-TWG) and endorsed by the National Commission for Refugees and IDPs (NCRI) in Somalia, as of February 2018.  There was a 50% reduction in overall movements in April, as compared to March; due to the COVID-19 outbreak, many border ports have been closed with movements restricted since the last week of March. In April, arrivals to Yemen decreased by 76%, as compared to March. Of the overall movements observed across all routes, most were tracked along the HoA route (90%). A large proportion of movements tracked in April consisted of stranded migrants, or nationals moving within the country; only 225 movements consisting of Ethiopian and Somali nationals were tracked along entry locations into Djibouti, likley intending to travel along the Eastern route.. In Ethiopia, 1,105 outgoing movements were tracked, most (78%) of which were Ethiopians, travelling towards the Arab Peninsula via Djibouti and Somalia. In Somalia, 3,939 movements consisting of Ethiopian nationals tracked upon entry into Somalia, travelling eastward.

The ongoing conflict in Yemen, since March 2015, has led to the displacement of more than 3.6 million people (according to DTM's 2018 Area Assessment). DTM's Rapid Displacement Tracking tool collects and reports on numbers of households forced to flee on a daily basis, allowing for regular reporting of new displacements in terms of numbers, geography and needs.   From 01 January 2020- 23 May 2020, IOM Yemen DTM estimates that 14,152  Households or 84,912 Individuals have experienced displacement, at least once. Between the 17th of May 2020 and 23rd of May 2020, the highest number of displacements were seen in:  ·       Lahj (228 HH) – Al Maflahy (142 HH), Al Had (71 HH), Habil Jabr (8 HH) districts. Most displacements in the governorate were originated from Aden and Lahj.                                                             ·       Marib (136 HH) – Marib (102 HH), Marib City (11 HH), Al Jubah (6 HH) districts. Most displacements in the governorate were originated from Al Jawf and Marib.  ·       Al Dhale'e (117 HH) – Al Azariq (52 HH), Ash Shu'ayb (26 HH), Ad Dhale'e (20 HH) districts. Most displacements in the governorate were originated from Aden and Al Dhale'e.  Most displacement resulted from increased conflict in the following Governorates and districts.  ·       Aden (291 HH) – Al Mansura (157 HH), Ash Shaikh Outhman (34 HH), Attawahi (24 HH) districts.   ·       Al Jawf (73 HH) – Khabb wa ash Sha'af (39 HH), Al Hazm (24 HH) districts.         ·       Lahj (52 HH) – Tuban (48 HH) district.                                                                        Methods used: ·       DTM’s Rapid Displacement Tracking (RDT) tool collects and reports on numbers of households forced to flee on a daily basis, allowing for regular reporting of new displacements in terms of numbers, geography and needs. Limitations: ·       DTM Yemen is unable to report on figures in some governorates due to access limitations. ​

IOM DTM in collaboration with the World Health Organization (WHO) and the state Ministry of Health have been conducting monitoring of individuals moving into Nigeria's conflict-affected northeastern states of Adamawa and Borno under pillar four (Points of entry) of COVID 19 preparedness and response planning guidelines. During the period 16 to 22 May 2020, 412 movements were observed at twenty two Points of Entry in Adamawa and Borno states. Of the total movements recorded, five were incoming from Nord in Cameroon while 131 were incoming from Extreme-Nord of Cameroon.   A range of data was collected during the assessment to better inform on migrants’ nationalities, gender, reasons for moving, mode of transportation and timeline of movement as shown in Figures 1 to 4.

By 10 May 2020 the number of confirmed COVID-19 cases has increased to 156 according to the Ministry of Health. Two COVID-19 patients reportedly recovered as of 4 May 2020. As the number of confirmed cases rises rapidly, UNMISS in cooperation with a taskforce comprised of civil society members, has taken to the streets of Juba and other parts of the country to carry out risk communication through a variety of media. UN agencies and UNMISS further set up national Public Health Laboratories and rehabilitating laboratories in Yambio, Nimule and Wau, prepositioned 12 months of nutritional supplies and engaged in a range of other preparedness and response activities related to COVID-19.
