 Buzi - Movement, Relocation and Settlement  Reference Map

Le système d’élevage transhumant, pratique ancestrale au Burkina Faso et dans toute l’Afrique de l’Ouest, est confronté à des facteurs de vulnérabilité (crise sécuritaire, faible pluviométrie, compétition sur les ressources naturelles) qui menacent sa durabilité, fragilisent ses capacités d’adaptation et provoquent des tensions entre communautés qui résultent parfois en des conflits meurtriers. Ce rapport présente les données de l’outil d’alerte, qui a pour objectif de recenser les évènements liés à l’utilisation des ressources naturelles et aux pratiques agro-pastorales dans la région transfrontalière des pays du Liptako Gourma, de comprendre les modes de résolution de conflits existants et d’informer les autorités compétentes afin de réduire les tensions dans les communes d’intervention pour la période d’octobre à décembre 2020.

 La DTM a identifié 1078 personnes affectées inclus 459 personnes déplacées par des pluies torrentielles dans les provinces de Ruyigi et Kirundo.

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.   From 01 January 2021 to 30 January 2021, IOM Yemen DTM estimates that 593 households (HH) (3,558 Individuals) have experienced displacement at least once.   Since the beginning of 2021, DTM also identified other 6 previously displaced households who left the displaced location and moved to either their place of origin or some other displaced location.   Between 24 January 2021 and 30 January 2021, IOM Yemen DTM tracked 234 households (1,404 individuals) displaced at least once. The highest number of displacements were seen in:                                                                                   Al Dhale'e  (76 HH) – Ad Dhale'e (39 HH), Al Hussein (19 HH), Qa'atabah (18 HH) districts. Most displacements in the governorate originated from Al Dhale'e and Ibb. Al Hudaydah (66 HH) – Ad Durayhimi (57 HH), Hays (9 HH) districts. All displacements in the governorate were internal. Taizz (43 HH) – Al Qahirah (13 HH), Al Mudhaffar (6 HH), Al Ma'afer (6 HH) districts. Most displacements in the governorate originated from Taizz and Al Hudaydah. Most displacement resulted from increased conflict in the following governorates and districts. Al Hudaydah (93 HH) – Al Hawak (48 HH), Ad Durayhimi (16 HH), Al Garrahi (13 HH) districts. Al Dhale'e (53 HH) – Qa'atabah (34 HH), Al Husha (17 HH), Ad Dhale'e (2 HH) districts. Taizz (39 HH) – At Ta'iziyah (11 HH), Maqbanah (7 HH), Jabal Habashy (3 HH) districts.

DTM teams activated Emergency Event Tracking (EET) to monitor the displacement of individuals affected by inter-communal conflict between Fur and Arab tribes in Sharg Aj Jabal (East Jabal Marrah) and Tawila localities since 24 January 2021. The second update estimates a total number of 12,850 individuals (2,700 households) seeking shelter in Katur village, having been displaced from Faluja (53%), Touwa Shalal and Kabiri (33%), and Dobo Umda (14%). Since the first EET, there has been a 41 per cent increase in the captured number of individuals displaced, in addition to 23 households returning to Dobo Umda. All individuals are Sudanese nationals. At least 872 individuals out of the captured caseload have additional vulnerabilities in need of assistance and support, meanwhile 27 unaccompanied minors were reunited with their families since the previous update. With no new losses indicated, reports indicate that six individuals have been killed and eight sustained injuries, whilst at least 800 internally displaced persons (IDPs) have lost personal belongings and livestock. Based on a ranking scale, the three main priority needs identified are food, non-food items and emergency shelter. Urgent humanitarian assistance is needed for the new arrivals. 

During the COVID-19 pandemic, IOM’s Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) in collaboration with the World Health Organization (WHO) monitors the movement to and from Nigeria's Adamawa and Borno States, located in the North East Zone. Assessment are conducted at Points of Entry located along the border with Cameroon.   During the period 13 - 19 February 2021, 237 movements were observed at three Points of Entry in Borno State. Of the total movements recorded, 110 were incoming from the Far North Region in Cameroon, while 4 were incoming from the North Region in Cameroon and 5 were incoming from N‘Djamena in Chad. Additionally, 117 outgoing movements were recorded from Borno State to the Far North Region in Cameroon and 1 outgoing movement to the North Region of Cameroon.   A range of data is collected during the assessment to better inform on travellers’ nationalities, sex, reasons for moving, mode of transportation and timeline of movement as shown in figures 1 to 4 below.

Nigeria's North Central and North West Zones are afflicted with a multidimensional crisis that is rooted in long-standing tensions between ethnic and religious groups and involves attacks by criminal groups and banditry/hirabah (such as kidnapping and grand larceny along major highways). The crisis has accelerated during the past years because of the intensification of attacks and has resulted in widespread displacement across the region. Between 15 and 21 February, armed clashes between herdsmen and farmers, and bandits and local communities have led to a fresh wave of population displacement. Following these events, a rapid assessment was conducted by DTM (Displacement Tracking Matrix) field staff  with the purpose of informing the humanitarian community and government partners, and enable targeted response. Flash reports utilise direct observation and a broad network of key informants to gather representative data and collect information on the number, profile and immediate needs of affected populations.   Latest attacks affected 1,727 individuals, including 16 injuries and 24 fatalities, in Faskari and Kankara LGAs of Katsina State, Katsina-Ala LGA of Benue State, Bassa LGA of Plateau State and Gusau LGA of Zamfara State. The attacks caused people to flee to neighbouring localities. 

The lingering conflict in Nigeria's North East Zone has been the major cause of widespread population displacement. Over 700,000 persons have been forced to leave their areas of residence in search of safety and security in neighbouring Wards and LGAs.   On 14 February 2021, a Non-State Armed Group (NSAG) carried out an attack in Njine Ward of Marte LGA, leading to a substantial wave of population displacement. Following the attack, a rapid assessment was conducted by DTM (Displacement Tracking Matrix) field staff with the purpose of informing the humanitarian community and government partners, and enabling targeted response. Flash reports utilise direct observation and a broad network of key informants to gather representative data and collect information on the number, profile and immediate needs of the affected population.   The attack in Marte LGA affected approximately 3,380 individuals from Njine Ward and has caused a considerable movement towards the transit camp located in neigbouring Dikwa LGA. Other displaced persons fled to other LGAs, including the state's capital Maiduguri.

On 13 February 2021, in close coordination with the Mozambique’s National Institute for Disaster Management and Risk Reduction (INGD), International Organization for Migration (IOM) DTM, and the CCCM Cluster together with the Local HCT and the district authority conducted an intention survey, at household level, in accommodation centres located in Beira district of Sofala province. A total of 81 heads of households (accounting for 400 family members) were interviewed during this exercise to understand their intentions and concerns.

This report presents the findings of round 34 of the Mobility Tracking component of IOM Libya’s Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) programme, covering November and December 2020. During the reporting period, the security situation remained stable as the ceasefire continued to hold, resulting in an increasing number of previously displaced families returning to their places of origin in Western Libya. The number of returnees identified during this round of data collection increased from 567,802 returnees identified in round 33 to 604,965 returnees in round 34 (+37,163 individuals). Correspondingly, the number of internally displaced persons (IDPs) identified in Libya decreased from 316,415 individuals reported in round 33 to 278,177 IDPs by the end of December 2020.
