L’objectif de l’outil de suivi des urgences est de rassembler des informations sur les mouvements significatifs et soudains de populations ainsi que sur des urgences sécuritaires et climatiques. Ce tableau de bord présente les informations sur les personnes affectées par la montée des eaux du fleuve Logone ayant provoqué des inondations durant le mois septembre 2022 dans vingt-cinq (25) localités de l’arrondissement de Kai Kai, et quatre (04) localités de l’arrondissement de Maga dans le département du Mayo Danay, dans la région de l’Extrême-Nord du Cameroun.
Environ 445 ménages (soit 2781 personnes) ont été affectés et déplacés dans plusieurs localités dans le même arrondissement. Les populations affectées par la montée des eaux sont notamment exposées aux maladies zoonotiques, comme le paludisme. Pour le moment les populations sinistrées ont trouvé refuge en famille d’accueil et d’autres ont entrepris, avec l’accompagnement des autorités locales, l’aménagement des lieux de relocalisation temporaire (écoles et églises). Suite à ces déplacements, les besoins prioritaires des populations sont l’accès aux vivres, la restauration des abris ainsi que la provision d’articles non alimentaires, l’eau, hygiène et assainissement, ainsi que les soins de santé.

The transhumant livestock system is an ancestral practice of pastoralists between Sahelian countries towards coastal countries. These Sahelian countries are faced with vulnerability factors (security crisis, irregular rainfall, competition over natural resources) that threaten their sustainability, weaken their capacity to adapt and provoke tensions between communities that sometimes result in deadly conflicts.
To better understand transhumance movements trends and the impact of vulnerabilities on transhumant communities, IOM has developed the Transhumance Tracking Tool (Transhumance Tracking Tool – TTT) through its Displacement Tracking Matrix DTM, with the Bilital Maroobe Network (RBM) and its members the pastoralist organisations, to monitor transhumance in cross-border areas in countries where RBM operates.
In the framework of this project, the TTT provides an understanding of the dynamics of cross-border transhumance between Burkina Faso, Niger, Nigeria and Mali by combining three components: mapping, counting and alerting.
The purpose of the alert system is to identify events related to the use of natural resources, agro-pastoral practices, and disasters in the cross-border area of different countries, to understand the existing conflict resolution methods, and to inform competent authorities to reduce tensions in the municipalities of intervention. This system makes it possible to identify alerts related to a conflict event (event alert) or to a massive, early, late or unexpected movement of livestock (prevention alert) that could lead to conflict. These alerts, once transmitted to the various actors, are used for conflict prevention or actions towards resolutions. This report presents data from the alert tool for the months of July to August 2022

In September 2022, IOM Yemen DTM recorded 6,041 migrants entering Yemen, an 8% decrease compared to August 2022 (6,542 ). In Shabwah DTM has registered an increase in arrivals compared to the last months in contrast to Lahj, which registered a decrease this month. The overall decrease is in part linked to increased security measures by Djibouti coast guards and the condition of the weather and the sea.
Due to the deteriorating humanitarian crisis in Yemen and the challenges in moving towards KSA, many migrants opted to return to the Horn of Africa. DTM teams in Djibouti recorded that during September 2022, a total of 187 migrants took the risky return by boat from Yemen to travel home. Moreover, DTM recorded 4,532 Yemeni returns from KSA during the month of September 2022, compared to 5,522 in August 2022.
Between 1 January and 30 September 2022, DTM recorded 47,020 migrants and 49,815 Yemeni migrant returnees to Yemen.
The migrant caseload was around 91 per cent Ethiopian nationals, and around nine per cent Somali nationals. The migrants are predominantly male (66%), with (22%) women, eight per cent boys and four per cent girls also among the travelers.
Through September’s reporting period, 3,620 migrants arrived from Somalia and were recorded at Ber Ali flow monitoring point in Shabwah governorate. In Lahj governorate, 2,421 migrants arrived from Djibouti, where 1,694 were recorded at Al Makhabbah flow monitoring point (FMP), 500 at Al Cawhah FMP, 118 at Hasy Eisa FMP, 79 at Al-Batin FMP, and 30 at Al Azaf FMP.

In Shabwah DTM has registered an increase in arrivals (+ 10%) compared to the last month in contrast to Lahj, which registered a decrease this month (- 25%). The overall decrease could be linked to weather conditions, sea tides and increased coast guard patrolling in Djibouti.

Depuis plusieurs années, la République centrafricaine (RCA) est affectée par des crises politiques, sécuritaires et humanitaires liées aux violences armées, aux tensions intercommunautaires ou à la transhumance dans certaines zones. Après une montée de la crise pendant la période électorale de fin 2020 / début 2021, la situation sécuritaire est restée volatile tout au long de l’année 2022 marquée par une intensification des opérations militaires opposant les Forces Armées Centrafricaine (FACA) (appuyées par leurs alliés) aux groupes armés luttant pour le contrôle des territoires. Ces affrontements entre éléments armés continuent d’engendrer des déplacements à l’échelle nationale et plus particulièrement dans les zones Centre, Sud- Est et Nord-Ouest. De surcroît, les inondations constatées depuis le début de la saison hivernale à partir du mois de juin accroissent la vulnérabilité des populations en engendrant le déplacement temporaire de milliers de personnes installées dans des lieux de regroupement spontanés, surtout dans la zone urbaine de Bangui et Ombella-Mpoko.

Le système d’élevage transhumant est une pratique ancestrale des éleveurs entre pays sahéliens vers les
pays côtiers Ces pays sahéliens sont confrontés à des facteurs de vulnérabilité (crise sécuritaire,
pluviométrie irrégulière, compétition sur les ressources naturelles) qui menacent leur durabilité, fragilisent
leur capacité d’adaptation et provoquent des tensions entre communautés qui résultent parfois en des
conflits meurtriers.
Afin de mieux comprendre les tendances des mouvements transhumants et l’impact des fragilités sur les
communautés transhumantes, l’OIM, à travers de sa Matrice de suivi des déplacements Displacement
Tracking Matrix DTM), a déployé l’outil de suivi de la transhumance (Transhumance Tracking Tool
TTT) avec le Réseau Bilital Maroobe ( et ses antennes d’organisations d’éleveurs pour faire le suivi
dans les zones transfrontalières des pays d’intervention du RBM
Le TTT permet de comprendre les dynamiques liées à la transhumance transfrontalière dans l'Afrique
centrale et de l'ouest, et dans le cadre de ce projet entre le Niger et ses pays voisins le Burkina Faso, le
Nigéria et le Mali Il combine trois composantes la cartographie, le comptage et l’alerte
Le système d’alerte a pour objectif de recenser les évènements liés à l’utilisation des ressources naturelles,
aux pratiques agro pastorales, ainsi qu’aux catastrophes dans la région transfrontalière de différents pays,
de comprendre les modes de résolution de conflits existants et d’informer les autorités compétentes afin
de réduire les tensions dans les communes d’intervention Ce système permet de recenser les alertes liées
à un évènement conflictuel (alerte évènement) ou à un mouvement massif, précoce, tardif ou inattendu
de bétail (alerte prévention) qui pourrait provoquer un conflit Ces alertes, une fois transmises aux
différents acteurs, sont utilisées pour des actions de prévention ou de résolution de conflits Ce rapport

El primer semestre de 2022 se caracterizó por diversos acontecimientos en materia de movilidad humana, siendo uno de los más relevantes la aprobación del reglamento a la nueva Ley de Migraciones y Extranjería durante febrero. Esta normativa permite aplicar procesos administrativos como la reconducción o devolución inmediata de personas extranjeras que ingresen al país eludiendo el control migratorio, tanto a través de pasos habilitados como no habilitados. De acuerdo con los datos de la Subsecretaria de Interior, desde enero a junio 10.968 personas refugiadas y migrantes no han podido ser reconducidos a través del paso fronterizo de Colchane y Pisiga, ya que el Estado Plurinacional de Bolivia (de ahora en adelante Bolivia) no recibe a personas que no sean de esta nacionalidad. En ese sentido, solo el 10% de los procesos de reconducción han sido materializados.
Los ingresos al país han ido fluctuando durante el primer semestre; de acuerdo con diversas fuentes de información que incluyen a reportes realizados por socios de la Plataforma Nacional de Chile (R4V) y notas de prensa. Durante los primeros meses del año (enero-junio 2022) entre 400 y 500 personas refugiadas y migrantes de Venezuela ingresaron diariamente a Chile, siendo la comuna de Colchane, frontera con Bolivia, el principal punto de acceso al país. Mientras, en la DTM de Registro de Monitoreo de Flujos realizada por la OIM de Bolivia en el mes de julio se evidenció que, durante el período de observación, 250 personas refugiadas y migrantes de Venezuela llegaron hasta Pisiga, frontera con Colchane – Chile, para posiblemente ingresar al país. Ello pone en evidencia una posible disminución de las personas que ingresaron al país durante julio respecto a los meses anteriores. Adicionalmente, según el número de personas que ingresan o esperan ingresar al Dispositivo Transitorio de la comuna de Colchane, los flujos parecen haber disminuido en julio en comparación con los meses anteriores: entre enero y mayo, el promedio fue de 180 personas diarias; desde junio, esta cifra ha sido de 40 a 70 personas al día. Estos datos corresponden a los registros de entrada al Dispositivo Transitorio, y no incluyen a aquellas personas que no ingresan a dicho espacio.
