The DTM Emergency Tracking Tool (ETT) is deployed to track and to collect information on large and sudden population movements, provide frequent updates on the scale of displacement and quantify the affected population when needed. As a sub-component of the Mobility Tracking methodology in Nigeria, ETT utilises direct observation and a broad network of key informants to capture best estimates of the affected population per location, enabling targeted humanitarian response planning.

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 15 October 2022, IOM Yemen DTM tracked 9,124 households (HH) (54,744 Individuals) who experienced displacement at least once.

L’OIM, en collaboration avec l’Institut National de la Statistique du Mali (INSTAT), a mis en œuvre une enquête dite de Présence des Migrants entre juillet et août 2022. Cette enquête a pour objectif de mettre en lumière les tendances, profils, vulnérabilités et besoins spécifiques des populations migrantes afin de mettre en place un cadre spécifique en faveur de la protection des migrants, de la lutte contre la traite et de la promotion d’un retour sûr et digne en vue d’une réintégration durable.

Cette enquête s’est déroulée dans les régions de Kayes et Sikasso où, selon l’Enquête Modulaire Permanente Auprès des Ménages (EMOP) de l’INSTAT réalisée chaque année, une population migrante importante vie dans ces régions.

Sur la base de la population totale des migrants économiques des deux régions retenues, un échantillon de 1 350 de ces migrants a été sélectionné. La taille de cet échantillon a été répartie proportionnellement à la taille de la population migrante de chacune des communes des régions retenues.

Starting on 24 February 2022, the war in Ukraine triggered an unprecedented humanitarian crisis and generated large scale displacement both within Ukraine and to the neighbouring countries. As of 9 September 2022, over 6 million persons were internally displaced in Ukraine and over 13 million crossings of refugees and other Third-Country Nationals (TCNs) not in need of international protection from Ukraine into the neighbouring countries were reported.

This report is based on 10,097 valid surveys collected by IOM’s Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) in Romania with refugees from Ukraine and TCNs between 25 March and 10 October 2022. These were collected as part of the Profiles and Inclusion survey (8,222 responses between 25 March and 1 August 2022) and the Urban Inclusion survey (1,876 responses between 1 August and 10 October 2022). Data was collected in Brasov, Bucharest, Constanta, Galati, Husi, Iasi, Maramures, Suceava and Tulcea. Additional qualitative insights are included based on the work of a network of IOM counsellors who have provided individual assistance and group information sessions throughout this crisis.
