- Survey
The oblast profiles draw from data in the IOM General Population Survey (GPS) rounds 13 and 14, emphasising population demographics and displacement, durable solutions, shelter adequacy, basic needs, employment & income, and social cohesion. These granular insights, categorised by population group at the oblast level, aim to inform strategic, programmatic, and operational decision-making.

This summary presents initial findings from Round 1 of Mobility Tracking conducted across Abyei Administrative Area through key-informant assessments at location-level in April 2023. Mobility Tracking estimates the presence of internally displaced persons (IDPs) and returnees in Abyei Administrative Area in displacement sites and host communities. IOM DTM mapped a total of 46,696 IDPs, of whom 15 per cent were previously abroad, and 15,143 returnees, including 36 per cent returnees from abroad in 48 locations, across five sub-areas in Abyei Administrative Area.

On 20 November 2023, Mount Ulawun volcano on the border of the West New Britain (WNB) and East New Britain (ENB) provinces erupted, spewing ash plumes. The Rabaul Volcanological Observatory reported that seismicity was high, showing an upward trend but at a reduced rate and thus recommended that the Alert Level be upgraded to Stage 4. The volcano eruption caused mass displacement across the affected areas. IOM’s Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) site assessment tool was rolled out in WNB and ENB within a week following the eruption and identified 8,565 persons (1,707 Households [HH]) displaced from the local villages in WNB and ENB.1 Another 8,544 displaced individuals (private sector companies’ evacuees) are hosted by their employers (Hargy Oil Palm and Navo Mill) in WNB and are not accounted for in the DTM assessment. Combined, the total number of displaced persons, company evacuees and local villagers, is 17,109. The situation remains fluid and information presented in this report may continue to evolve.

This factsheet aims to provide a snapshot of multi-sectoral conditions, needs, and challenges among Myanmar migrants in Samut Sakhon as captured between September and October 2023 by IOM Thailand’s multisectoral assessment of needs. The purpose of this assessment is to provide insights regarding the severity of needs among migrant populations, identify vulnerable population groups and geographic areas with the most acute needs, inform assistance planning and relevant Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) targets, and provide sectoral and inter-sectoral baselines for future assessments.

- Flow Monitoring
In October 2023, a total of 40,370 movements were observed across the six flow monitoring points (FMPs) in Ethiopia. This represents a 4% increase in daily average movements in comparison with September 2023 when an average of 1,258 movements per day were observed.
Outgoing movements (76%) during October increased while incoming movements (24%) decreased compared to the previous month, mainly due to decreased incoming flows from neighboring Sudan through the Metema and Kurmuk entry points. A total of 30,682 outgoing movements were observed, of which 12,442 (40.6%) were heading to Saudi Arabia, 6,684 (21.8%) were going to Kenya, 4,473 (14.6%) were travelling towards Somalia, 2,759 (9%) to Djibouti, 1,404 (4.6%) intending to reach Sudan, 1,162 (3.8%) heading to Yemen, and 854 (2.8%) to South Africa, while remaining movements were to other Southern African, Middle Eastern, and North American countries.
At the same time, 9,688 incoming movements were observed, of which 4,708 (48.6%) originated from Sudan, mainly fleeing the conflict that started in April, while 1,905 (19.7%) came from Djibouti, 1,846 (19.1%) from Somalia, 1,143 (11.8%) from Kenya, and the remaining from Yemen, Congo, and Nigeria.

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 2 December 2023, IOM Yemen DTM tracked 9,643 households (HH) (57,858 Individuals) who experienced displacement at least once.
Between 26 November and 2 December 2023, IOM Yemen DTM tracked 47 households (282 individuals) displaced at least once. The majority of people moved into/within the following governorates and districts:
- Ta’iz (22 HHs) – Al Makha (12 HHs), Mawza (6 HHs), Al Maafer (4 HHs) districts. Most displacements in the governorate originated from Taiz and Al Hodeidah.
- Ma’rib (19 HHs) – Marib (9 HHs), Marib City (5 HHs), Harib (5 HHs) districts. Most displacements in the governorate originated from Taiz and Al Hodeidah.
- Al Hodeidah (6 HHs) – Al Khukhah (5 HHs), Hays (1 HHs) districts. Most displacements in the governorate were internal.
The majority of people moved from the following governorates and districts:
- Al Hodeidah (14 HHs) – At Tuhayta (3 HHs), Hays (3 HHs), Al Hawak (3 HHs) districts.
- Ta’iz (11 HHs) – Maqbanah (8 HHs), Al Maafer (3 HHs) districts.
- Ma’rib (5 HHs) – Harib (5 HHs) district.

In response to the Somalia’s severe drought beginning in November 2021, DTM Somalia launched an Emergency Trends Tracking (ETT) tool first in Gedo and Bay regions in 2022, and subsequently in Hiraan, Banadir and Middle Shabelle regions in 2023 to monitor drought related displacement trends and hotspots in support of operational planning. However, during the first half of 2023, conflict and flooding displacements have been significant. Therefore, DTM restructured its ETT tool to capture multi-shock displacements (drought, flood, conflict and other) from October 2023.
ETT is a crisis-based tool that tracks sudden displacement triggered by specific events or emerging crises. The objective of ETT is to help prioritize humanitarian response and to enable partners to deliver rapid assistance.
