L’évaluation rapide de l’OIM (Emergency Event Tracking, EET) est un outil mis en place dans le but de collecter des informations sur les mouvements importants et soudains des populations. Ces informations sont collectées à la suite de visites terrain et/ou d’entretiens téléphoniques avec les informateurs clés des sites de déplacement ou des communautés d’accueil. Les informations sont ensuite recueillies dans les outils ERM. Ce rapport synthétique présente les résultats des évaluations réalisées du 3 – 6 juillet 2024 à travers des évaluations menées à distance avec les informateurs clé.

En date du 26 juin 2024, les affrontements opposant le groupe armé M23 aux forces armées de la RDC (FARDC) ont occasionné les mouvements aux populations dans plusieurs villages (Kirudu, Miano, Fungura, Kishandja, Katunda, Kiripa, Remeka, Maya, Buuli, Ngoro, Depot, Buongo, Rambo, Nzigati, Kamuobe, Bwisa, Bumba, Nyalaushange, Burora, Kamuobe et Kashukano) dans le territoire de Masisi vers la province voisine du Sud-Kivu (dans le territoire de Kalehe, groupement de Ziralo, chefferie de Buavu dans la zone de santé de Bunyakiri), dans les localités de Batayo, Kusisa, Nyalugusha, Bushugulu, Lulere, Bundje, Kisha, Bulembwe et Kalamo. La majorité de ces personnes déplacées (1 941 ménages, soit 13 587 individus) sont hébergées dans les familles d’accueil ou dans les centres collectifs.

Les incendies ont forcé 476 ménages, soit 2 324 individus, à déplacer (pendant la période 09 – 25 juin 2024) vers la commune de Kadutu au quartier de Nyamugo (l’avenue de Lwama), au quartier de Nyakaliba (dans les avenues Mulonge et Kaduru), au quartier de Nkafu (dans les avenues Hopital Général A et Michombero) et au quartier de Panzi (dans les avenues Commerciale et Télévision). À cause de ces incendies à répétition, la population déplacée sont hébergées dans les familles d’accueil, mais elle manque des articles ménagers essentiels et les familles d’accueil éprouvent des difficultés de capacités d’hébergement des déplacés.

The Conditions of Return Assessment (CoRA) provides granular and actionable data on the conditions of returns in Ukraine, using a multisectoral location-level assessment (MSLA) methodology conducted with local authority key informants in areas of return across Ukraine. CoRA presents an analysis of the situation and needs of returnees in Ukraine, exploring the circumstances under which returns are taking place, and settlement-level conditions for all population groups, aiming to support evidence-based interventions that address the specific needs of returnees. Data collection for Round 8 took place between 15 April and 31 May 2024 across 858 locations in 284 hromadas in 23 oblasts in Ukraine.  

During the reporting period a total of 49,751 movements were recorded and 1,982 migrants were interviewed across 20 Flow Monitoring Points (FMPs) in Zimbabwe. The total movements recorded decreased by 14 per cent compared to the previous month. Sixty-two per cent of movements observed were inflows, whilst 38 per cent were outflows. The top three sending districts were Beitbridge (50%), Harare (12%) and Chiredzi (8%), whilst the top three receiving districts were Harare (27%), Beitbridge (21%) and Bulawayo (11%). Matabeleland South province recorded the highest number of outflows (54%) whilst Harare province recorded the highest number of inflows (28%). Migrants travelling from Matabeleland South highlighted Limpopo (70%) and Gauteng, South Africa (28%) as their intended destination. Of the incoming migrants travelling to Harare, 36 per cent were travelling from Lusaka province in Zambia whilst 34 per cent were travelling from Gauteng (South Africa).

The South Africa-Zimbabwe corridor recorded the highest movement of 44,654 (90%) followed by the Zambia-Zimbabwe corridor which recorded 5,097 (10%) movements.

KEY FINDINGS

1. HOUSING AND LAND CHALLENGES
Many bomas face issues related to housing, land demarcation, and property ownership, with some areas lacking demarcated settlement areas and others experiencing disputes over land boundaries, ownership and illegal occupancy.

2. EDUCATION ACCESS AND QUALITY
Challenges in the education sector include insufficient school facilities, staffing shortages, and high school fees, leading to dropout rates and limited access to quality education, particularly in government schools.

3. WATER, SANITATION, AND HYGIENE (WASH)
Insufficient water points, sanitation facilities, and hygiene resources contribute to health risks and discomfort within communities. Repairing and expanding water infrastructure and promoting sanitation practices are crucial for improving public health outcomes.

4. LIVELIHOOD OPPORTUNITIES
Limited livelihood opportunities exacerbate poverty and economic insecurity, highlighting the need for vocational training, business support, and agricultural assistance to empower community members and improve their economic prospects.

5. HEALTHCARE SERVICEGAPS
Healthcare services are inadequate, with shortages of medical supplies, personnel, and operational hours reported. Improving access to healthcare, especially during emergencies and at night, is essential to address community health needs effectively.

6. COMMUNITY INFRASTRUCTURE NEEDS
Inadequate community infrastructure, such as community centers and sports facilities, hinders social cohesion and recreational opportunities. Investing in the construction and maintenance of these facilities can enhance community well-being and promote social integration.
 

In South Sudan, a complex humanitarian crisis is unfolding due to various factors such as communal conflicts, land disputes, insecurity, violence, natural disasters, and displacement across borders. Between 1st and 15th July 2024, 8,834 returnees arrived in different counties within the country.

Half of the returns (51%) were forced to return from the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) due to violence against civilians, 38 per cent displaced from Sudan because of the ongoing Sudan crisis, and 7 per cent due to improved security conditions in their destination areas in South Sudan. The influx of returnees has led to urgent humanitarian needs among the affected population. The top three immediate requirements identified by the returnees are access to shelter, food, and health in their respective locations of return
