Le suivi des urgences a pour but de recueillir des informations sur les mouvements importants et soudains de populations. Les informations sont collectées à travers des entretiens avec des informateurs clés ou des observations directes. Ce tableau de bord présente les informations sur un mouvement de personnes survenu le 13 avril 2020 dans un village de la province du Lac. En raison de crainte d’attaques armées, à la date du 13 avril 2020 environ 240 ménages de 1 200 personnes ont quitté les villages de Kirmya et Bourboura, ainsi que le site de Wadarom 2, tous situés dans la sous-préfecture de Ngouboua (département de Kaya), pour se réfugier dans le village de Fourkoulom, situé dans la même sous-préfecture.

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Government of Sudan (GoS) declared a nationwide health emergency and introduced mitigation measures in March 2020 to reduce the transmission of the virus. These measures include restrictions on travel due to closure of airports, points of entry (POE) along land borders and maritime boundaries, as well as domestic movement restrictions.   

El desplazamiento de la población refugiada y migrante proveniente de Venezuela se ha configurado como uno de los desplazamientos más importantes en los últimos años, con un impacto significativo sobre todo en la región sudamericana. El Perú se constituye como el segundo país de destino de esta población, albergando, según los datos del Estado peruano, a más de 860,000 nacionales venezolanos. Dentro de las necesidades más urgentes de la población venezolana se considera el alojamiento temporal y el acceso a vivienda digna. Según información oficial del gobierno peruano, Lima alberga a mayor cantidad de población refugiada y migrante venezolana en el Perú y además es una de las zonas con mayor concentración de albergues temporales para población venezolana. La OIM como la Agencia de las Naciones Unidas para las Migraciones, con mandato en migración y liderazgo en el sector de Camp Coordination and Camp Management (CCCM) presenta junto con su socio RET, la Matriz de Monitoreo del Desplazamiento (DTM) – Evaluación de sitios que permite dar una mirada general al estado de los albergues temporales en Lima Metropolitana. Finalmente, señalar que el levantamiento de información se ha realizado anterior al contexto del COVID19, y que las personas albergadas en estos sitios pueden encontrarse en un riesgo urgente de salud y de protección en estas circunstancias por lo que es necesario que los esfuerzos de las organizaciones que responden a las necesidades de la población venezolana, puedan enfocar esfuerzos en la población albergada en estos sitios.

According to field observers, at least 745 families (approximately 3,725 individuals) were forced to displace from conflict affected areas of Abusliem municipality, and from the neighborhoods of Salah Eddin and Al Hadba due to the deteriorating security situation.

L’objectif de l’outil de suivi des urgences est de rassembler des informations sur les mouvements significatifs et soudains de population.

The 855,000 Rohingya Refugees currently residing in 34 makeshift camps in Cox’s Bazar, Bangladesh are highly vulnerable to COVID-19. Lessons learned from previous epidemic responses, such as the response to Ebola across affected African countries, highlight the critical role perceptions have on health seeking behaviour, trust in humanitarian responders and the willingness of affected communities to comply with public health measures. Among the Rohingya refugees in Bangladesh, distrust and lack of confidence in the medical system of the response is widespread. The implications of this on the effectiveness of any COVID-19 response cannot be overstated or ignored. The perception that the Rohingya have of the health system in the camps is their reality and is highly informed by their culture, history, and their understanding of sickness and health. Therefore, if the perceptions and opinions of Rohingya on healthcare are not taken properly into account and if community awareness and engagement are not prioritized as a key pillar of the COVID-19 response, lessons indicate that the capacity of response actors to control the outbreak will be severely hindered. The purpose of this thematic report on health behaviours is to support humanitarian responders in understanding the current perceptions of healthcare, the impact of these perceptions on health seeking behaviour and the direct implications these perceptions and behaviours have on the ability to respond to, and control, a COVID-19 outbreak in the Rohingya refugee camps.
