Dans le cadre de sa seizième phase de la Matrice de suivi des déplacements (DTM), l’Organisation Internationale pour les Migrations (OIM) a mené une enquête sur les intentions de retour ciblant les Personnes Deplacées Internes (PDI) et réfugiés hors camp dans la région de l’Extrême-Nord du Cameroun. L’enquête a eu lieu en novembre 2018 dans les six départements de la région: Diamare, Mayo-Danay, Mayo-Kani, Mayo Tsanaga, Mayo-Sava, et Logone-et-Chari. L'enquête a été menée dans 558 localités auprès de 3 038 ménages deplacés. 74% des PDI et réfugiés ne souhaitaient pas quitter le lieu actuel. 23% souhaitent retourner dans leur lieu d’origine et 3% souhaitaient se déplacer ailleurs. Selon les personnes enquêtées, les quatre conditions principales nécessaires au retour, étaient : assurer la présence des forces de sécurité dans la zone d’origine (71%), bénéficier de l’aide internationale dans le village d’origine (30%), l’amélioration de l’accès aux services de base (31%), et la réhabilitation des maisons endommagées (27%).

DTM interviewed 1,473 households representing 4,315 individuals (62% women and girls) entering or exiting Wau Protection of Civilians site Adjacent Area (PoC AA site) between 1 September and 30 November 2018. A comparatively sizable proportion of this cohort were new arrivals (11%) and permanent exits (23%) as opposed to same-day travel (18%, no overnight travel) or temporary leave (48%, overnight travel short to long-term over four months).

DTM keeps track of movement into and out of Malakal Protection of Civilian (PoC) site. DTM interviewed 3,519 households representing 3,898 individuals from September to November 2018. Malakal distinguishes itself from other PoC sites by its proportionally large commuter population that leaves in the morning and returns on the same day (70% of measured flows), hence the small average household size, and a relatively small proportion of new arrivals or permanent exits (3%). Same-day travellers (62% women and girls) most commonly farmed or fished in nearby locations such as Eastern Malakal (43%) and, to some extent, Ogot (11%).

DTM interviewed 2,127 households representing 4,234 travelling individuals crossing into and out of Bentiu Protection of Civilians site (PoC) site, Malakal PoC site and Wau PoC Adjacent Area (AA) site during the reporting period. Wau PoC AA stood out as 45% of respondents indicated intending to permanently leave the site, most commonly due to improved living conditions at destinations. Temporary travel (overnight up to more than six months) away from the site was also often long-term at the Wau PoC AA site. While temporary travel was common for residents at Malakal PoC Site, the vast majority lasted or was intended to last for less than a week and largely limited to the same county. DTM interviewed more individuals who were new to Bentiu PoC site than persons intending to permanently leave, with family being the main motivation to enter the site.
