Reports

The Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) in the East and Horn of Africa (EHoA) region is currently active in six countries (Burundi, Djibouti, Ethiopia, Somalia, South Sudan, and Uganda), and its methodology includes four main components (mobility tracking, flow monitoring, registrations, and surveys).   As of March 2021, DTM in the region tracked 6.8M Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) and 3.2M Returnees, as reported during the last round of DTM assessments for each country, or through secondary data sources. The figures of IDPs and returnees for Ethiopia are as of Round 24 (January 2021), and the figures for South Sudan are as of Round 9 (September 2020). The IDP figure for Burundi is as of Round 60 (February 2021). Displacement figures for Kenya and Uganda were reported as of December 2019. While DTM coverage is being expanded in Somalia, the IDP figure indicated on this map is the most up-to-date data available endorsed by the Somali National Bureau of Statistics (SNBS) on behalf of the government as of March 2021.

Following the recent attacks in Palma Sede, DTM teams in Nangade, Mueda, Montepuez, and Pemba districts continue to register significant rise in IDP arrivals since 27 March. On 30 April 2021, an estimated number of 686 IDPs were registered in the four districts bringing the total number of IDPs to 31,136 people who have been displaced from Palma. IDPs continue to arrive in Nangade on foot and by bus from Nangade to Mueda, Montepuez, and Pemba.

In the states Borno and Adamawa, a total of 2,809 movements were recorded, comprising 2,144 arrivals and 665 departures, between 19 and 25 April 2021. Arrivals were recorded at locations in Askira/Uba, Bama, Biu, Gwoza, Hawul and Monguno Local Government Areas (LGAs) of the most conflict-affected state of Borno and in Fufore, Girei, Gombi, Hong, Lamurde, Madagali, Maiha, Michika, Mubi North, Mubi South, Numan, Song, Yola North and Yola South LGAs of Adamawa.   Departures were recorded in Askira/Uba, Gwoza and Kala/Balge LGAs of Borno, and Demsa, Fufore, Gombi, Hong, Madagali, Maiha, Michika, Mubi North, Numan and Yola North LGAs of Adamawa.   ETT assessments identified the following movement triggers: poor living conditions (970 individuals or 35%), voluntary relocation (861 individuals or 31%), conflict/attack (620 individuals or 22%) and improved security (345 individuals or 12%).

L’objectif de l’outil de suivi des urgences est de rassembler des informations sur les mouvements significatifs et soudains de population. Ce rapport présente des informations sur les mouvements ayant eu lieu entre le 1er mars et le 9 avril 2021 dans le département du Mayo-Sava de la région de l’Extrême-Nord.L’objectif de l’outil de suivi des urgences est de rassembler des informations sur les mouvements significatifs et soudains de population.

The Return Intention Survey (RIS) was conducted through a household questionnaire from 14 December 2020 to 31 March 2021 in 48 Local Government Areas (LGAs) hosting IDPs in the states Borno, Adamawa and Yobe (BAY States) in northeastern Nigeria.   A total of 6,747 IDP households responded to the questionnaire. Of these, 3,380 households (or 50%) were IDP households who were living in camp/camp-like settings, while 3,367 households (50%) were IDP households who were residing among host communities. The survey was conducted in 611 locations, situated in 189 wards across the region. Of the assessed locations, 344 were locations where IDPs were hosted among the local communities, while 267 were camps/camp-like settings. To match the ratio of displacement per state, sixty-six per cent of the assessed households were located in Borno State, 21 per cent were located in Adamawa State and 13 per cent were located in Yobe State. The respondents that participated in the survey were randomly selected from the displaced population living in the locations surveyed, with 40 per cent of the selected households being female headed households. Before participation, the voluntary nature and the objectives of the survey were clearly explained to the respondents.   To ensure the accuracy of the data collection, the survey of displaced households was conducted by trained IOM DTM enumerators and in close collaboration with the administrative authorities of the respective locations.

The eleventh round of the DTM Baseline assessment was carried out in 154 localities, located in the provinces of Cabo Delgado (114 localities), Nampula (20 localities), Niassa (12 localities), Sofala (2 localities) and Zambezia (6 localities).  As of March 2021, an estimated 630,241 IDPs were identified in Cabo Delgado, while an additional 64,919 IDPs were identified in Nampula, 1,153 in Zambezia, 1,072 in Niassa, and 153 in Sofala. This brings the total number of individuals displaced in the five provinces to 697,538 Internally Displaced Persons, or 150,335 displaced families. All displacements are a result of the insecurity situation in Cabo Delgado province.

Les conflits agro-pastoraux liés à la transhumance, pratique ancestrale au Cameroun et dans la sous-région, sont devenus une cause d’insécurité majeure à la frontière avec le Tchad et la République centrafricaine. L’outil de suivi des mouvements de transhumance (Transhumance Tracking Tool) mis en place depuis Août 2020 dans les régions de l’Est, de l’Adamaoua et du Nord, permet de comprendre les dynamiques liées à la transhumance transfrontalière avec le Tchad et la République Centrafricaine. Le TTT combine trois composantes: l’alerte, la cartographie et le comptage. Le système d’alerte a pour objectif de recenser les mouvements inattendus de bétail et les conflits liés à l’utilisation des ressources naturelles et aux pratiques agro-pastorales dans la région, de comprendre les modes de résolution de conflits existants et d’informer les autorités compétentes, dans l’objectif de réduire les tensions dans les trois régions d’intervention. Ce système permet de recenser les alertes liées à un événement conflictuel (alerte événement) ou à un mouvement massif ou inattendu de bétail (alerte prévention) qui pourrait provoquer un conflit. Ce rapport détaille les données de l’outil d’alerte pendant les mois de février et mars 2021.

DTM’s Rapid Displacement Tracking (RDT) tool collects and reports on numbers of households forced to flee on a daily basis, allowing for regular reporting of new displacements in terms of numbers, geography, and needs.   Since the beginning of 2021, DTM also identified 460 previously displaced households who left the displaced location and moved to either their place of origin or some other displaced location.                                                                                                              Between 18 April 2021 and 24 April 2021, IOM Yemen DTM tracked 101 households (606 individuals) displaced at least once.

Most displacements in the governorate were internal. Marib (22 HH) – Marib City (17 HH), Harib (2 HH), Marib (2 HH) districts. Most displacements in the governorate originated from Marib and Hajjah. Al Dhale'e (13 HH) – Ad Dhale'e (7 HH), Qa'atabah (6 HH) districts.
