Internal displacement

This report provides the most recent data on migration trends in Uzbekistan, covering the period from April to June 2024. It includes comparisons and trends based on national and international datasets available to the public. The report also highlights significant global and regional events affecting migration in the country, such as the ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine, which has disrupted traditional migration corridors in the region since 2022 and consequences of the Crocus City Hall attack for migrants. Furthermore, it discusses the trends of inflow and outflow migration, the impact of changing labour migration flows, climate change-related migration, urbanization, socio-economic conditions, increased undocumented migration, and other major events contributing to human mobility and migratory movements during this period.

Environ 910 000 personnes sont estimées avoir traversé la frontière vers le Tchad depuis le début de la crise au Soudan, incluant 213 339 parmi eux qui sont des retournés tchadiens depuis fin juillet. L’OIM s’attend à ce que ce nombre passe à 240 000 d’ici fin décembre 2024, en raison de la reprise du conflit au Darfour.

An estimated 910,000 people have crossed into Chad since the onset of the crisis in Sudan, of which 213,339 are Chadian returnees as of end of July 2023. IOM expects this number to rise to 240,000 in December 2024. This is due to ongoing conflict and food insecurity in Darfur, owing to the current suspension of the humanitarian corridor between Chad and Darfur.

This latest round of Emergency Trends Tracking was initiated in April 2024 to monitor displacements movements during the Gu rainy season. Districts covered in this round include Afgooye, Afmadow, Baardheere, Baidoa, Balcad, Belet Weyne, Belet Xaawo, Cabudwaaq, Dayniile, Dhuusamarreeb, Doolow, Gaalkacyo, Garoowe, Hodan, Jamaame, Jowhar, Kahda, Kismaayo, and Luuq. ETT is a crisis-based tool that tracks sudden displacement triggered by specific events or emerging crises.

The objective of ETT is to help prioritize humanitarian response and to enable partners to deliver rapid assistance. Based on previous shock induced displacement patterns, the humanitarian community expects that people will continue to move toward urban areas in search of humanitarian services. Consequently, the ETT coverage focuses on the main urban centers and surrounding villages for each assessed district. The data is collected through Key Informant Interviews (KIIs) at the location level, from Sunday to Wednesday every week. It includes information on new arrivals, numbers and demographic of IDPs, reasons for displacement, intentions, humanitarian assistance and priority needs among others.

To facilitate the joint analysis of the CCCM (Camp Coordination and Camp Management) Cluster’s New Arrivals Tracker (NAT) and ETT data, the assistance and needs indicators are identical in both tools.

This report reflects data corresponding to Sudan Mobility Update (8) dataset. The dataset is available here.

Overview:  
This report provides an overview of the total population of internally displaced persons (IDPs) in Sudan, including those displaced both before and after the onset of the conflict on 15 April 2023.    
 
Key Findings:  

• An estimated total of 10,890,722 IDPs were displaced to 9,185 locations, in 183 localities, across all 18 states in Sudan.  
• An estimated 8,126,265 individuals were displaced internally within Sudan since 15 April 2023.   
• An estimated 28 per cent of IDPs who were initially displaced prior to the onset of the current conflict experienced secondary displacement since 15 April 2023.   
• Approximately 2,382,043 individuals crossed borders into neighbouring countries since 15 April 2023.   
• The top states of origin were Khartoum (34%), South Darfur (19%), and North Darfur (14%).   
• The highest proportion of IDPs were hosted in South Darfur (17%), North Darfur (14%), and Gedaref (9%) states. 
• Over half (52%) of IDPs were reportedly children under the age of 18-years-old.   

Annex 1 includes an operational matrix with a table of estimated IDPs per state, disaggregated by displacement before versus after 15 April 2023.   

Note: The number of IDPs displaced post 15 April 2023 (8,126,265 IDPs) includes the estimated 1,056,315 IDPs who were initially displaced prior to 15 April 2023 and experienced secondary displacement since 15 April 2023. DTM Sudan defines an internally displaced person as any person who has been forced or obliged to flee from their habitual residence due to an event dating from 2003 onwards.

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.

DTM’s Flow Monitoring Registry (FMR) conducts surveys on individuals in transit at strategic points within South Sudan (SSD) and its borders. The FMR aims to provide valuable insights into mobility patterns, reasons for migration, and characteristics of travelers. This data is utilized by humanitarian organizations, development partners, and the government to enhance their programs. Additionally, the FMR complements DTM’s monitoring efforts during natural disasters.

As of August 2024, a total of 14 Flow Monitoring Points (FMPs) were operational, monitoring both internal movements and cross-border travel with neighboring countries such as Uganda (UGA), the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Sudan (SDN), Ethiopia (ETH), Kenya (KEN), and the Central African Republic (CAR). The figures provided are indicative of trends observed among respondents at the active FMPs only, as DTM’s coverage does not encompass all cross-border or internal flows. Participation in the survey is voluntary and anonymous, with groups of individuals traveling together often surveyed collectively, typically representing a household.

This factsheet aims to provide a snapshot of multi-sectoral conditions, needs, and challenges among Myanmar migrants in Phetchabun as captured in August 2024 by IOM Thailand’s multi-sectoral assessment of needs. The purpose of this assessment is to provide insights regarding the severity of needs among migrant populations, identify vulnerable population groups and geographic areas with the most acute needs, inform assistance planning and relevant Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) targets, and provide sectoral and inter-sectoral baselines for future assessments.
