IOM began collecting data on IDP movements in and out of the two main IDP sites in Dolow: Kabasa (population: 5,500 HHs) and Qansaxlay (population: 2,900 HHs). In the period between 22 December 2017 and 1 February 2018, A total of 1,150 entries compared to just 18 exits were recorded. The majority of the new arrivals to Kabasa and Qansaxlay cited lack of food as their reason for displacement (73%). Others cited insecurity (13%) and rejoining family (13%). Most of the new arrivals were coming across the border from Ethiopia (72%), with the remainder coming from a scattering of nearby districts: Dolow (7%), Luuq (7%), Belet Xaawo (3%), Baardheere (3%), Diinsoor (3%), and others. 57% of the new arrivals went to Qansaxlay IDP site, while 43% went to Kabasa IDP site. This is noteworthy since the Kabasa site has been closed to new arrivals since October because of lack of space for new plots. Most of the Kabasa new arrivals are joining family members in existing plots. Only 6 households (18 individuals) left the IDP sites in Dolow over the course of 6 weeks. Half left Kabasa and half left Qansaxlay. Likewise, half left due to lack of food, and half left to rejoin family elsewhere. Three of the families were headed to Luuq, while the others were headed for Baidoa, Sakow, and across the border to Ethiopia.
