Reports

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 rapport présente les informations sur un mouvement de personnes survenu le 16 mai 2019 dans un site de la province du Lac. Ces informations ont été collectées le 20 mai 2019.

The objective of the Emergency Tracking Tool (ETT) is to quickly collect information on sudden displacements of populations. The information is collected through key informant interviews and direct observation. This dashboard provides information on an event which occurred on 16 May 2019 at one site in the Lac province. Data was collected on 20 May 2019.

Since DTM’s last update on 17 May, an additional 1,455 displaced families (approximately 7,275 individuals) were identified, bringing the total to at least 16,460 families (approximately 82,300 individuals) who have been displaced from their homes since the start of hostilities on 04 April 2019.

La Encuesta de Medios de Vida y Participación Comunitaria es la tercera encuesta realizada por OIM en el contexto de la emergencia ocasionada por la erupción del Volcán de Fuego. Para cumplir con los objetivos de la encuesta, el instrumento fue diseñado para recopilar información de los(as) jefes(as) de hogar, así como de sus compañeros(as) de vida (cuando aplique) en los albergues de transición La Industria, Papa Francisco y Santa Isabel. Los resultados son representativos para la población de jefes(as) de hogar y sus compañeros(as) de vida en albergues de transición designados por la Secretaría de Obras Sociales de la Esposa del Presidente (SOSEP). El marco de muestra fue elaborado a partir de los registros oficiales de personas albergadas contenidos en el Sistema Integrado de Registro de Albergues (SIRA) desarrollado por OIM para SOSEP.

The DTM Monthly Regional Update contains consolidated summary updates and highlights from DTM field operations. This document covers updates from the regional network of flow monitoring of migrants, as well as the tracking and monitoring of internal displacement in the different countries. It is published on a monthly basis and currently covers three regions: West and Central Africa, Middle East and North Africa, and East and the Horn of Africa.

As part of IOM’s Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) preparedness activities, DTM operates Flow Monitoring Points (FMPs) on the borders with Uganda (UGA), the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and the Central African Republic (CAR). 21 FMPs were active in April, including three new ones in Yei County (one replacing an existing point) and one in Lainya County. This dashboard highlights key entry routes to South Sudan (SSD) and presents the demographic profile of people surveyed on arrival from the three high-risk countries. Participation in the survey is voluntary and the data collected is only indicative of actual flows.

Since the onset of hostilities in South Tripoli a large number of families have been displaced from their homes in search of safety and protection. As of 19 May, at least 15,645 families (approximately 78,225 individuals) have been identified as IDPs by the ongoing DTM Emergency Tracking.The armed conflict has also affected markets, negatively impacting food security situation of the displaced and affected populations, and has also disrupted the provision of services in several affected areas. DTM has conducted several rounds of rapid assessments on the impact of conflict on availability of food, access to markets & cash as well as availability of services in the municipalities of Abusliem, Ain Zara (also covering Khallat al Furjan and Salah Eddin separately), Al Aziziya, Hai Alandalus, Janzour, Qasr Bin Ghashir, Suq Al Khamis, Swani Bin Adam, Tajoura, and Tripoli Center. These assessments are conducted on a bi-weekly cycle and rely on direct data collection via enumerators and key informant interviews.

In 2014, 54 per cent of the world’s population lived in urban areas, with urban populations projected to increase to 66 per cent by 2050. As the world is rapidly urbanizing, so too is displacement. Specifically, internal displacement is becoming an urban phenomenon, especially as conflict and wars increasingly occur in cities. This report aims to discuss the analysis of the rural-urban dimension, specifically on access to services, using Nigeria and Ethiopia as case studies. Current discourse on displacement focuses only on the urban. It lacks a rural-urban dimension that allows for a more comparative understanding of the needs and vulnerabilities for and between each context. This is crucial as intervention and responses in urban settings is a new challenge for humanitarian agencies. This is largely due to the complexities and diversities of the urban landscape and lack of available and accurate data on urban internal displacement. As crises increasingly occur in urban areas, humanitarian actors will have to adapt their approaches to address the complex and dynamic urban environments. An understanding between displacement in rural versus urban areas can help to better inform humanitarian responses.

Localized conflict in Benishangul Gumuz region (BSG) and East and West Wollega zones of Oromia region beginning in the last week of September 2018 is believed to have displaced an estimated 191,995 individuals comprising 36,470 households.
