Internal displacement

In 2023, IOM’s Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) collected data on the Needs, Intentions, and Integration Challenges of refugees from Ukraine in 11 countries in Central and Eastern Europe that are part of the IOM’s Regional Ukraine Response: Belarus, Bulgaria, Czechia, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Romania, Republic of Moldova, and Slovakia.

This report presents the findings of surveys with Ukrainian citizens related to their employment profiles and job prospects in the countries hosting the displaced respondents. The analysis focuses on these respondents who are of working age (18 to 64 years old), are active on the labour market (either working or looking for work), and intend to remain in the country where the survey took place for the foreseeable future.

En el último trimestre del 2023, en la ciudad de Desaguadero (Puno), localizada en la zona fronteriza con Bolivia (al sureste del Perú), el Ministerio del Interior (Mininter) en coordinación con la Organización Internacional para las Migraciones (OIM) y la Municipalidad Distrital de Desaguadero reforzaron acciones para combatir la trata de personas a través de la instalación de la Red Distrital contra la Trata de Personas y Tráfico Ilícito de Migrantes de Desaguadero (octubre, 2023).

A nivel migratorio, el 10 de noviembre y luego de seis meses de proceso de regularización, culminó el plazo para que las personas extranjeras en situación migratoria irregular puedan acceder y tramitar el permiso temporal de permanencia (CPP) (Superintendencia Nacional de Migraciones, 2023). En esa línea, la Policía Nacional del Perú ha continuado con los operativos de control de identidad en los diversos terminales de buses.

Le rapport DTM indique qu'entre le 16 et le 21 avril 2024, au Burundi, 19 573 personnes ont été affectées et 4 783 déplacées suite à des pluies torrentielles, des glissements de terrain, et des inondations nécessitant une réponse immédiate de la communauté humanitaire. Parmi les affectés, 10 755 sont des femmes et 8 818 sont des hommes.

La DTM Burundi a le plaisir de vous partager (dans le lien ci-dessus) des informations sur les urgences qui se sont produites au Burundi en dates du 29 avril au 04 mai 2024. La DTM a identifié 16 353 personnes affectées (3 170 ménages) dont 2 162 personnes déplacées (405 ménages) par les pluies torrentielles, les inondations et les glissements de terrain dans les provinces de Bujumbura Rural, Cibitoke, Kirundo, Muyinga, Ngozi et Rumonge.

As of 15 March 2024, IOM estimates that around 3,689,000 people remained internally displaced in Ukraine while UNHCR indicates that further 5,930,400 people were displaced abroad. IOM estimates that, as of 15 March 2024, approximately 4,455,000 people have returned spontaneously to their place of habitual residence in Ukraine following a period of displacement of at least two weeks (internal displacement or cross-border). Of these, 26 per cent have returned from abroad.

To inform targeted interventions aimed at alleviating the vulnerability that stems from poor structural and social conditions in areas of return, the Conditions of Return Assessment (CoRA) provides granular data on where returns are occurring, the ways in which those who have returned are most vulnerable and why.

The information below was collected following several armed attacks that occurred between 25 April and  5 May 2024, in the commune of Delmas, specifically in the neighborhoods of Cité Numéro 2 (Delmas 24) and Solino. As a result of these incidents, residents from six sites located in the neighborhoods of Cité Numéro 2, Carrefour Pean, 2ème cité Saint Martin, and Sylvio Cator - Delmas 28 were forced to evacuate these sites. In total, 5,178 individuals were displaced, including residents from these six sites and residents from the Cité Numéro 2 neighborhood. Internally displaced persons (IDPs) headed towards the communes of Port-au-Prince, Delmas, Croix-Des-Bouquets, and Tabarre. Among them, 51% found refuge with host families, while 49% settled in ten sites, including six new sites and four pre-existing sites.

The quarterly report is developed by combining secondary data obtained from different sources, including government agencies, international organizations, non-profit entities, and other types of organizations. More specifically, the report on the fourth quarter of 2023 was derived from data of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Bureau of National Statistics, and Border Service of Kazakhstan. The data was compiled through a combination of published sources and direct requests to the partners and government agencies.

Over two years since the full-scale invasion of Ukraine, the humanitarian situation, especially near the frontline, has grown increasingly complex. In response, the International Organization for Migration (IOM) Data and Analytics unit has developed a frontline monitoring system to track mobility and critical needs of civilians in heavily conflict-affected areas. This system integrates three key components: the Mobility and Needs Assessments (MaNA), frontline settlement monitoring, and evacuation tracking. MaNA provides information about the estimated population disaggregated by sex and age at the hromada level and the estimated proportion of this population facing acute humanitarian needs. Frontline settlement monitoring provides granular baseline population estimates, as well as primary humanitarian needs in selected settlements within 25 km from the frontline to support scenario-planning and prepositioning of humanitarian assistance. In addition, IOM continuously monitors evacuations to provide humanitarian partners with data on the direction and scale of movements from selected settlements undergoing evacuation. Each component aims to support the coordination of effective humanitarian response, ensuring the safety and well-being of affected frontline populations.
