This desk review report is part of the outputs of the first phase of IOM’s project implementation on data collection to enable a better understanding of migration flows from Afghanistan, Ethiopia, Iraq, Nigeria, Pakistan and Somalia towards Europe, a collaborative effort by DTM support team and relevant IOM field missions funded by the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

As of 30 September 2017, the DTM has identified 3,203,124 internally displaced persons (533,854 families) displaced after January 2014, dispersed across 98 districts and 3,726 locations in Iraq. For the same period, DTM has identified 2,282,370 returnees (380,395 families). Overall, the total number of identified IDPs decreased by approximately 2% (56,748 individuals). Decreases were recorded across most governorates, with peaks in Erbil, (6% or 18,294), Baghdad (6% or 17,532), and Anbar (9% or 10,998).

The two governorates with the highest increase in returnee population were Ninewa (14% or 55,176) and Anbar (4% or 45,996 individuals).

This Emergency Tracking (ET) system tracks displacement along the Mosul Corridor as of 17 September 2017. The dashboard merges three ET datasets and records a total of 179,488 internally displaced families (1,076,928 individuals). The Salah al-Din and Ninewa ET indicates that 148,890 individuals have been internally displaced, while the Al-Hawija ET shows 102,708 individuals being displaced, and the Mosul Operations ET displays a total of 825,330 IDP individuals.

In July and August 2017 DTM Libya interviewed 1,258 key informants across 100 Baladiyas and 657 Muhallas. A total of 204,458 IDPs were identified. The threat of violence from conflict and the presence of armed groups was the main driver of displacement for 93% of the displaced population. 76% of IDPs lived in self-paid rental homes. In addition, a total of 301,988 returnees were identified. The main shelter for 91% of returnees was their previous home.

IOM’s Displacement Tracking Matrix has been monitoring displacement movements related to this crisis since October 15, when Iraqi Security Forces began moving into disputed areas previously held by Kurdish forces. As of 24 October, a total of 165,780 individuals are currently displaced since the disputed areas bordering the KRI were handed over from the Kurdish Peshmerga to the Iraqi Security Forces beginning 15 October 2017.

Ce rapport contient les résultats des enquêtes sur les intentions de retour effectuées dans 26 sites de déplacement dams les communes de Les Cayes, Camp Perrin, Maniche, Port-Salut, St Jean du Sud, Arniquet, St. Louis du Sud, Cavaillon, Coteaux, Roche-A-Bateau, Chardonnières, Les Anglais, Jeremie, et Dame-Marie.  

Mogadishu hosts the largest estimated protracted internally displaced population in Somalia, mainly living in informal IDP sites across the city. DTM’s October 2017 data collection focusing on the greater Mogadishu area identified a total of 545,000 individuals in over 840 IDP sites. Findings show that during the last three years, the majority of IDPs have shifted from more central districts in Mogadishu to districts in the periphery of the city, which stands in contrast to previous studies carried out in Mogadishu. Moreover, people continue to move into the city from other parts of the country, while others are forced to move from within the city to its outskirts.

IOM's Displacement Tracking Matrix has been monitoring displacement due to tensions over the Kurdish referendum crisis since the vote took place on 25 September. Major displacement movements have been observed since 15 October, when Iraqi security forces began moving into areas that had been held by Kurdish forces. These areas included parts of Ninewa, Diyala, Salah al-Din and Erbil governorates. As of 22 October 2017, a total of 135,660 individuals were displaced since the disputed areas bordering the KRI were handed over from the Kurdish Peshmerga to the Iraqi security forces on 15 October 2017. An estimated 50,000 returnees have returned to Kirkuk City.

As of 01 September 2017, the TFPM has identified, 2,014,026 internally displaced persons (IDPs) (335,671 households) who have been displaced due to conflict since March 2015, dispersed across 21 governorates. For the same period, the TFPM has identified 956,076 returnees (159,346 households), across 20 governorates. As a result, 10.3% of the total population of Yemen has experienced the shock of displacement due to conflict in the last 30 months.
