Internal displacement

Since October 8 there has been an increase in cross-border incidents between Israel and Lebanon, resulting in the displacement of people both within the South and elsewhere within the country. Since October 10, the Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) has been conducting the daily monitoring of population movements. The objective of the exercise is to inform preparedness and response planning.

As of the end of October 2024, 137,389 individuals (31,019 households) are biometrically registered as active residents in the camp, representing a two per cent increase in registered individuals since January 2024 following the latest biometric registration maintenance in Bentiu IDP Camp.

IOM’s Displacement Tracking Matrix is a comprehensive system to analyse and disseminate information to better understand the movements and needs of Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) in Burundi. The baseline assessment aims at providing information on the stock (presence) by colline of IDPs which are categorized into two groups: Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) including IDPs who returned to their colline of origin but not their home and returnees who became IDPs. The baseline assessment also collects information on the cause of displacement and the type of shelter hosting IDPs. Data collection is conducted four times per year by trained Burundian Red Cross volunteers operating at all administrative levels: provinces, communes and collines.

IOM Yemen DTM's Rapid Displacement Tracking (RDT) tool collects data on estimated numbers of households forced to flee on a daily basis from their locations of origin or displacement, allowing for regular reporting of new displacements in terms of estimated numbers, geography, and needs. It also tracks returnees who returned to their location of origin.

From 1 January to 26 October 2024, IOM Yemen DTM tracked 2,982 households (HH) (17,892 Individuals) who experienced displacement at least once.

Between 20 and 26 October 2024, IOM Yemen DTM tracked 31 households (186 individuals) displaced at least once. The majority of people moved into/within the following governorates and districts:

• Ma'rib (19 HHs) – Ma'rib (8 HHs), Ma'rib City (8 HHs), Raghwan (3 HHs) districts. Most displacements in the governorate originated from Al Hodeidah and Ibb.
• Ta'iz (9 HHs) – Al Makha (7 HHs), Al Misrakh (2 HHs) districts. All displacements in the governorate were internal.
• Ad Dali (3 HHs) – Al Azariq (3 HHs) district. Most displacements in the governorate originated from Lahj and Ta'iz.

The majority of people moved from the following governorates and districts:

• Ta'iz (12 HHs) – Jabal Habashi (4 HHs), Maqbanah (3 HHs), At Taiziyah (1 HH) districts.

This report provides an in-depth look at the progress made in supporting the displaced residents of the Dauchi settlement, located in Song local government area, Adamawa State. Dauchi, home to over 200 households, has become a permanent refuge for people who were forced to flee their homes due to the insurgency in north-east Nigeria. Instead of returning to their areas of origin, many displaced persons have chosen to integrate into this local community.
Through a detailed survey, this report explores the living conditions and livelihoods of Dauchi’s residents while also assessing the availability of key infrastructure and services, such as health centres, schools, and water sources. In addition, demographic data from registration exercises offers valuable insights into the population’s age and gender distribution, which helps inform future interventions for the community.
The findings provide a comprehensive view of Dauchi’s socio-economic landscape and the challenges its residents face, making this report a vital resource for those working to improve conditions and provide long-term solutions for the settlement’s residents.

Between 14 and 20 October 2024, a total of 1,269 new arrivals were recorded at locations in Adamawa and Borno states.
