La mobilité humaine à destination, ou à travers le Niger constitue un phénomène aux multiples dimensions et variétés. Elle comprend la transhumance, les migrations saisonnières liées à la période des récoltes, les voyages durant les fêtes religieuses, le tourisme, la migration économique vers le nord et l'ouest de l'Afrique, la recherche d'emploi, les déplacements imposés par les conflits, les catastrophes naturelles ou les effets du changement climatique, ainsi que l'exode rural. Ces éléments illustrent la diversité de la mobilité observée au Niger et dans la région de l'Afrique de l'Ouest et du Centre.

Ce rapport, élaboré à partir de données collectées de sources primaires et secondaires, vise à tracer un portrait des tendances et dynamiques migratoires du Niger, pour mieux saisir leur complexité et examiner les interactions entre les différents types de mouvements à travers le pays.

Bien que non exhaustif, ce document cherche à donner une vue d'ensemble sur la mobilité au Niger, tout en esquissant les profils des individus qui participent à ces mouvements.

The International Organization for Migration (IOM) in Pakistan collects data on the outflows of Afghans at the Torkham (Khyber Pakhtunkhwa), Badini, Bahramcha and Chaman (Balochistan) border crossing points (BCPs) to better understand the movements of Afghans returning to Afghanistan. The data presented below is harmonised with those from the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), who also cover Ghulam Khan (Khyber Pakhtunkhwa).

On 26 September 2023, the Ministry of Interior in Pakistan announced its decision to enact its “Illegal Foreigners’ Repatriation Plan (IFRP)”. Since 1 January 2024, IOM identified 54,227 returns at the five BCPs. Cumulatively, from 15 September 2023, 545,118 individuals have returned to Afghanistan. Ten per cent (54,227 individuals) of this total have returned between January and March 2024.

In March 2024, 36,525 migratory movements were observed at flow monitoring points (FMPs) in Djibouti, including 18,451 individuals entering from Ethiopia. Observed migratory movements increased by 27 per cent in March compared to February due, on the one hand, to the Ramadan period generally considered as an ideal period for crossing borders for migrants wishing to go to the countries of the Arabian Peninsula and on the other hand, political violence in the Amhara region leading many Ethiopians to take the migratory routes to Djibouti.

A total of 1,177 migrants returning from Yemen were recorded in March in Obock and Tadjourah, a decrease of 32 per cent compared to February (1,730) due to the Ramadan period during which, generally, the strictness of controls at borders decline

En mars 2024, 36 525 mouvements migratoires ont été observés aux points de suivi des flux (FMP) à Djibouti dont 18 451 individus entrants en provenance d’Éthiopie. Les mouvements migratoires observés ont augmenté de 27 pour cent en mars par rapport à février dû, d’une part, à la période de Ramadan, généralement considérée comme une période idéale de franchissement des frontières pour les migrants désireux de se rendre vers les pays de la Péninsule Arabique, et d’autre part, des violences politiques dans la région d’Amhara, conduisant beaucoup d’Éthiopiens à emprunter les routes migratoires vers Djibouti.

Un total de 1 177 migrants de retour du Yémen a été enregistré en mars à Obock et Tadjourah soit une baisse de 32 pour cent par rapport à février (1 730) en raison de la période de Ramadan pendant laquelle, généralement, la rigueur des contrôles aux frontières baisse

To gain a better understanding of the mobility dynamics and vulnerabilities of Myanmar nationals entering Thailand, IOM Thailand initiated flow monitoring activities at key points of entry (POEs) in Tak, Ranong, and Kanchanaburi border provinces in 2023 using IOM Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) tools. Flow monitoring aims track the scale and characteristics of Myanmar nationals’ mobility along the Myanmar-Thailand border, including the volume of movements and intended destinations of migrants, their reasons for movement, intended lengths of stay, and expectations about work sectors and conditions. The tool provides critical insights into current mobility dynamics in the context of the socio-economic and security situation in Myanmar following the military takeover in February 2021. The following report extends findings from the mid-year flow monitoring report published in September 2023. It covers the entire year of 2023 in Tak and Ranong, and additionally includes analysis of Kanchanaburi province from September to December 2023. 

Flow Monitoring Counting (FMC) and Flow Monitoring Surveys (FMS) are conducted simultaneously at each point for one week every month. Tak, Kanchanaburi, and Ranong were chosen due to pre-existing information indicating that the three provinces experience a substantial volume of entries of Myanmar nationals.

From January to December 2023, IOM’s Migration Data and Research Unit (MDRU) interviewed a total of 4,693 incoming Myanmar nationals to Thailand, with 2,366 interviewed in Tak province (50%), 2,310 in Ranong province (49%), and 17 in Kanchanaburi province (1%).
 

This report employs data collected within the framework of the Crossing Back surveys conducted in Romania between January and December 2023 with Ukrainian nationals who were either crossing back for a short-time visit or returning for a long-term period to Ukraine from or through Romania. The analysis considers ‘’short-term visitors’’ those persons who intended to spend 0-30 days in Ukraine, while respondents planning to stay for more than a month are defined as “prospective returnees”.

The survey included answers from 5,773 Ukrainian nationals living in or passing through Romania who were travelling to Ukraine. Among those interviewed before crossing back into Ukraine, the majority stayed in Romania (59%), followed by Bulgaria (17%) or Germany (5%). Additional countries of residence included Italy (4%), the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland (3%), Türkiye (2%), Belgium (2%), Greece (1%), Austria (1%), with the remaining 6% distributed among other nations.

The travel intentions of the surveyed Ukrainian nationals show that most respondents (53%) were “short-term visitors”, while 27 per-cent were prospective returnees. Another 20 per cent were not sure regarding their visit period. Also, most UA citizens were travelling back to their oblast of origin (93%), with most respondents originating from Odeska, Chernivetska, Mykolaivska, Ivan-Frankivska, City of Kiyv and Kharvivska.
