DTM Displacement event tracking in Libya covers all the events related to population movements during one month. In March 2019, events related to displacements and population movements were recorded in 18 Muncipalities (Baladiyas)  all over the country.   

From 14 — 15 April, DTM teams in coordination with Mozambique’s National Institute of Disaster Management (INGC), conducted a rapid intention survey in 18 displacement sites in Beira district.

Os dias 14 e 15 de Abril, as equipas da DTM, em coordenação com o Instituto Nacional de Gestão de Calamidades de Moçambique (INGC), realizaram inquéritos sobre as intenções de retorno em 18 locais de deslocamento no distrito da Beira.

Le suivi des urgences a pour but de recueillir des informations sur les mouvements importants et soudains de populations. Les informations sont auprès des informateurs clés à travers des appels téléphoniques, des entretiens physiques ou des observations directes. Ce rapport présente les informations sur les mouvements de populations suite à une attaque de groupes armés survenue le 15 avril 2019 dans le village Boma, dans la sous-préfecture de Kaiga Kindjiria: 25 ménages (105 individus) ont fui et se sontsont réfugiés dans la localité de Magui dans la même sous-préfecture.  

From 2 — 12 April 2019 IOM, in close coordination with the Government of Mozambique agency Instituto Nacional de Gestão de Calamidades, conducted multi-sectoral location assessments in 67 displacement sites in Sofala, Manica, Tete and Zambezia provinces.

From April to July 2018 a localized conflict in Gedeo and West Guji zones caused the displacement of an estimated 958,175 people. Between 11 to 17 March 2019, DTM's Rapid Responses Assessment (RRA) estimates that 690,364 individuals are still displaced across both zones, with 374,872 IDPs in Gedeo and 315,492 IDPs in West Guji. Of these, 261 sites (74%) are in host communities and 94 sites (26%) are living in collective sites. In addition and following the end of data collection for RRA round 6, DTM and SMS (Site Management Support) teams on the ground continued to monitor the rapidly changing population dynamics of collective sites in Gedeo and West Guji. A total of 147,017 IDPs were observed in collective sites in RRA round 6, while 264,464 IDPs were observed in collective sites under the Weekly Mobility Tracking tool between 29 March to 4 April 2019. This represents an increase of 117,447 IDPs after the end of RRA round 6. A total of 87,550 IDPs were on the move between 29 March to 4 April 2019. The majority of moving IDPs (81%) were coming into the sites with 68,252 IDPs entering collective sites in Gedeo and 2,547 IDPs coming into collective sites in West Guji. A total of 16,751 IDPs (19%) were moving out of collectives sites in Gedeo and West Guji.

Mobility tracking aims to quantify the presence and needs of internally displaced persons (IDPs), returnees and relocated individuals in displacement sites and host communities across South Sudan. The assessments are repeated at regular intervals to track mobility dynamics and needs over time. This summary presents the main findings from the multi-sectoral location assessment component of the fourth round of Mobility Tracking in South Sudan, complementing the Baseline Assessment Summary Report, location-level catalogues and atlas of IDP and returnee settlements. Data collection for Mobility Tracking round 4 took place between November and December 2018, following the signing of the revitalized peace agreement for South Sudan. 

From 2 — 12 April 2019 IOM, in close coordination with the Government of Mozambique agency Instituto Nacional de Gestão de Calamidades, conducted multi-sectoral location assessments in 67 displacement sites in Sofala, Manica, Tete and Zambezia provinces. An estimated 77,019 individuals were identified in these sites.

More than three and a half years since the escalation of conflict in Yemen, the civilian population continues to bear the burden of active conflict and economic decline, while suffering from extreme hunger and the deterioration of infrastructure. In this context of severe needs and scarce resources, the Multi Cluster Locations Assessment (MCLA) was designed and implemented based on the imperative to address information gaps and improve evidence-based humanitarian resource allocation across geographical areas, sectors, and population groups. More specifically, the MCLA aimed at providing a nationwide evidence base for the 2019 Humanitarian Needs Overview (HNO). The MCLA Technical Working Group (TWG) leading the exercise was formed in May 2018 by the Assessment and Monitoring Working Group (AMWG). It is composed of the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), the International Organisation for Migration (IOM), and the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), and it worked in close coordination with the Inter Cluster Coordination Mechanism (ICCM) and relevant authorities. With the support of clusters, the TWG designed the MCLA questionnaire so as to assess the local demographic profile, displacement dynamics, key vulnerabilities, access to basic services, and humanitarian needs of six population groups: internally displaced persons (IDPs), returnees, host communities (HC), non-host communities (non-HC), refugees, and migrants. Furthermore, the MCLA sought to identify the forms of humanitarian aid received by the affected populations, and their alignment with minimum standards and priority needs. The MCLA covered 331 out of the 333 districts in Yemen and completed 8,024 questionnaires through more than 21,000 Key Informant Interviews (KIIs) conducted between September and November 2018 in 6,791 locations. The number of KIIs conducted per population group was proportional to the sizes of the target population groups in Yemen, and the target locations were randomly selected within each district. As the information collected in the MCLA is based on KIIs and is therefore not statistically representative, figures produced by the MCLA should be considered as indicative and interpreted as trends.

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 countries. It is published on a monthly basis and covers the Middle East and North Africa Region.
