Reports

Le suivi des situations d’urgence (en anglais, emergency tracking tool ETT) est une des composantes de la Matrice de suivi des déplacements (DTM) déployée par l’Organisation Internationale pour les Migrations (OIM). Il a pour objectif de recueillir des informations relatives aux déplacements causés par une crise ou des évènements soudains.  Il offre une évaluation préliminaire d’une situation et permet de rapidement mettre en œuvre des mécanismes de réponse. Les informations ont été collectées auprès d’informateurs clés (représentants de déplacés, leaders communautaires) au moyen d’un questionnaire structuré axé sur les déplacements et les besoins humanitaires multisectoriels. Un formulaire d’enregistrement rapide a été également déployé auprès des ménages pour les recenser par sexe et catégorie d’âge et identifier les vulnérabilités présentes. Ce tableau de bord donne un aperçu  de l’évaluation rapide réalisée entre le 16 et le 17 juin 2021 dans la localité de Kavala suite à une alerte de déplacements causés par des violences liées à la transhumance.

The objective of the Emergency Tracking Tool (ETT) of the Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) is to collect information on large and sudden population movements. Since 11 April 2021, following armed conflict and clashes in the Central African Republic (CAR), thousands of Chadian and Central African nationals are crossing the border and found refuge in the sous-préfectures of Bekourou and Dembo (province of Mandoul département of Barh-Sara).   Between 21 and 26 May 2021, 199 households of 709 Chadian nationals fled and found refuge in the five villages of Maibo, Maissou, Nanabaria, Maya and Boumou (70 households of 187 people in the village of Maibo, 29 households of 159 people in the village of Maissou, 25 people of 130 people in the village of Nanabaria, 13 households of 35 people in the village of Boumou and 62 households of 198 people in the village of Maya).

L’outil de suivi des urgences (ETT, Emergency Tracking Tool) de la Matrice de suivi des déplacements (DTM, Displacement Tracking Matrix) a pour but de recueillir des informations sur les mouvements importants et soudains de populations. Entre le 12 mai et le 26 mai 2021, suite à des affrontements armés en République Centrafricaine (RCA), des milliers de ressortissants tchadiens et centrafricains traversent la frontière pour se réfugier dans les sous-préfectures de Bekourou et Dembo (province de Mandoul département de Barh-Sara).   Ainsi, 709 retournés tchadiens (199 ménages) se sont refugiés dans les cinq villages de Maibo, Maissou, Nanabaria, Boumou et Maya (70 ménages de 187 personnes dans le village Maibo, 29 ménages de 159 personnes dans le village de Maissou, 25 personnes de 130 dans le village de Nanabaria, 13 ménages de 35 personnes dans le  village de Boumou, ainsi que 62 ménages de 198 personnes dans le village de Maya).

Between the months of January 2021 and March 2021, a decrease of 5 per cent (5,937 IDPs) was recorded. On the other hand, an increase of 1 per cent (1,265 PDI ) was observed. The province of Bujumbura Rural recorded the largest decrease with 85 per cent (5,040 IDPs) of the overall decrease in IDPs. This decrease was due to the local integration in rented houses and return to community of origin of many IDPs of Gatumba locality. Some of these displaced households had received support through IOM Shelter/NFI interventions such as accomodation support and emergency shelters. In addition, the decreases reported in the provinces of Makamba, Ngozi and Rutana were due to the local integration in host communities mainly at Makamba and return to their places of origin after the rehabilitation of their houses. Despite the decreases reported in other provinces, the province of Bujumbura Mairie recorded an increase of 795 IDPs mainly due to displacements caused by torrential rains in Muha commune.

Building on the global joint work by the International Organization for Migration (IOM) and the World Food Programme (WFP) on the impact of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) on hunger, migration and displacement in the world from November 2020, this report aims to provide an overview of the unique challenges faced by migrants and forcibly displaced populations in the East and Horn of Africa (EHoA) region during 2020. This joint study explores the impacts of COVID-19 and related containment measures on migrant workers, remittance-dependent households and the forcibly displaced, and assesses the implications of the pandemic for people’s mobility, food security and other livelihood outcomes in major migration and hunger hotspots in the region.   Already home to some of the most vulnerable populations globally, the EHoA has seen additional displacement and challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic, with nearly 9 million people internally displaced by the end of 2020 alongside an estimated 5 million refugees and asylum- seekers. The pandemic has further challenged the situation for the populations on the move in the EHoA, a region that is already weakened by conflict, insecurity, extreme weather conditions, climate change and pests.

DTM teams activated EET to monitor the displacement of individuals affected by inter-communal conflict between Fur and Arab tribes in Shamal Jabal Marrah, Central Darfur, on 12 June 2021. The first update estimates a total number of 16,898 individuals (2,414 households) seeking shelter in Borgo (35%), Sangara (28%), Watari (22%), and Jemiza and Kaya (15%) villages in Shamal Jabal Marrah, Central Darfur. All displaced individuals are Sudanese nationals. Field teams indicate one individual was killed and another individual sustained injuries. There are at least 1,337 cases of additional vulnerabilities in need of assistance and support. Based on a ranking scale, the three priority needs across the displaced caseload are non-food items, food, and emergency shelter. 

During the COVID-19 pandemic, IOM’s Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM), in collaboration with the World Health Organization (WHO), monitors the movement to and from Nigeria's Adamawa and Borno States, located in the North East Zone. Assessments are conducted at Points of Entry located along the border with Cameroon.   During the period 12 - 18 June 2021, 194 movements were observed at four Points of Entry in Borno State. Of the total movements recorded, 69 were incoming from Cameroon’s Far North Region and 4 were incoming from N’djamena in Chad, while 121 were outgoing from Borno State to Cameroon‘s Far North Region.   A range of data is collected during the assessment to better inform on travellers’ nationalities, sex, reasons for moving, mode of transportation and timeline of movement as shown in figures 1 to 4 below.

Nigeria's North Central and North West Zones are afflicted with a multidimensional crisis that is rooted in long-standing tensions between ethnic and religious groups and involves attacks by criminal groups and banditry/hirabah (such as kidnapping and grand larceny along major highways). The crisis has accelerated during the past years because of the intensification of attacks and has resulted in widespread displacement across the region.   Between 14 and 20 June 2021, armed clashes between herdsmen and farmers, and bandits and local communities have led to new waves of population displacement. Following these events, rapid assessments were conducted by DTM (Displacement Tracking Matrix) field staff with the purpose of informing the humanitarian community and government partners, and enable targeted response. Flash reports utilise direct observation and a broad network of key informants to gather representative data and collect information on the number, profile and immediate needs of affected populations.   The latest attacks affected 1,078 individuals including 10 injuries and 13 fatalities in Agatu and Apa LGAs of Benue state and Faskari LGA of Katsina state. The attacks caused people to flee to neighbouring localities.

Entre les mois de janvier 2021 et mars 2021, une diminuon de 5 pour cent (5 937 PDI) a été enregistrée. D’autre part une augmentaon de 1 pour cent (1 265 PDI ) a été observée. La province de Bujumbura Rural a enregistré la plus grande diminution qui représente 85 pour cent (5 040 PDI) de la baisse globalemensuelle de PDI. Cetie diminution est dueà l’intégration locale en louant des maisons et le retour dans leurs communautés d’origine de plusieurs PDI de la zone de Gatumba. Certains de ces PDI ont bénéficié de l’assistance de l’organisation internationale pour les migrations (OIM) pour la construction des abris d’urgence et l’appui à l’hébergement. De plus, les diminutions rapportées dans les provinces de Makamba, Ngozi et Rutana sont dues d’une part à l’intégration locale des PDI  dans la communauté d’accueil surtout à Makamba et d’autre part à leur retour dans leurs communautés d’origine après la réhabilitation de leurs maisons. Malgré les diminutions rapportées dans d’autres provinces, la province de Bujumbura Mairie a rapporté une augmentation de 795 PDI expliquée en grande partie par les déplacements dus aux pluies torrentielles dans la commune de Muha.
