Reports

As of February 2016, IOM Niger has been carrying out flow monitoring of migrants at two points in Niger in the region of Agadez. Flow monitoring points (FMPs) are active in Séguédine and Arlit. The data collected provides a snapshot of migrant movements through the region. Restrictive measures taken by the government of Niger to crack down on irregular migration, the situation in Libya, and the repatriation of Nigerien nationals residing in Algeria, have led to a shift in the routes used by migrants. Most of the migrants observed were male (95%) and approximately 371 minors have been observed at the FMPs. Among them are 111 unaccompanied migrants. 

A total of 6,310 arrivals, 781 departures and 33 transit movement were recorded at locations in Askira/Uba, Bama, Chibok, Demsa, Dikwa, Fufore, Girei, Gombi, Gubio, Guzamala, Gwoza, Hawul, Hong, Jere, Kaga, Kala/Balge, Konduga, Kukawa, Madagali, Mafa, Magumeri, Maiduguri, Maiha, Michika, Mobbar, Monguno, Mubi-North, Mubi-South, Ngala, Nganzai, Numan, Yola-North and Yola-South LGAs in Borno and Adamawa States.  The main triggers of movements were poor living conditions (37%), voluntary relocation (24%), military operations (16%), ongoing conflict (11%), improved security (8%) and fear of attack (4%). 69% of the observed population were IDPs an 31% were returnees.

11,569 displaced individuals comprising 2,383 households in 22 displacement sites were identified in the Amhara region. These figures represent a decrease of 1,993 in the total individuals (15%), 280 in the number of households (11%) but an increase by one site since Round 7 (September/October 2017).  54% of displaced individuals were female and 41% were younger than 18 years old.
