DRC — Kasai Central Displacement Report 3 (April 2018)

As a response to the humanitarian crisis that is currently affecting the Democratic Republic of Congo, the International Organization for Migration launched DTM exercises (Displacement Tracking Matrix) in seven (7) provinces of the country in order to collect up-to-date information on forcibly displaced persons and returnees. These results will provide a better understanding of the displacement dynamics in DRC and support the humanitarian response. This report provides the main findings of the DTM assessments that were conducted in the Kasai Central province from the 5th of March to the 25th of March 2018 within 330 health areas (aires de santé). For these assessments, a total of 2,858 villages have been evaluated through 4,825 key informants’ interviews, identifying 584,432 IDPs and 1,081,268 Returnees.
