This information was gathered following attacks that occurred in the commune of Saint Marc, specifically in the 5th communal section of Bocozelle, on 3rd of October 2024. A total of 6,270 individuals (1,281 households) were displaced as a result of these attacks. These individuals sought refuge in the communes of La Chapelle, Montrouis, Petite Rivière de l'Artibonite, and Saint-Marc, with 88% of them staying with relatives as host families, while 12% found refuge in three separate sites. At the time of drafting this report, the displacements were still ongoing. Updates will be disseminated by DTM IOM based on observations of new movements.

Between 23 and 29 September 2024, a total of 1,253 new arrivals were recorded at locations in Adamawa and Borno states. 
ETT assessments identified the following movement triggers: flood (397 individuals or 32%), seasonal farming (216 individuals or 17%), improved security (131 individuals or 10%), government re-integration (124 individuals or 10%), poor living conditions (122 individuals or 10%), attacks (96 individuals or 8%), military operation (81 individuals or 6%), family re-unification (41 individuals or 3%), fear of attack (22 individuals or 2%), communal clashes (19 individuals or 2%) and access to humanitarian support (4 individual or less than 1%).

La côte Est de Madagascar a été frappée en février 2022 par deux cyclones (Bastirai et Emnati) provoquant le déplacement de milliers de personnes qui ont trouvé refuge dans des sites temporaires et spontanés ou auprès des familles et proches. Dans deux régions (Vatovavy et Fitovinany) près de 141,800 personnes ont vu leurs maisons détruites. Une évaluation rapide par l’organisation internationale pour les migrations (OIM) et le Programme Alimentaire Mondial (PAM) en avril 2022 indique que 30 % des ménages dont les maisons ont été détruites vivent toujours dans des familles d'accueil auprès des communautés d’accueil, et 25 % des ménages ont déclaré qu'un ou plusieurs membres de leur famille ont déménagé.

Le projet SOREBE (Soutien au Relèvement Précoce) est financé par le Japon pour la période de janvier 2023 à janvier 2024. Les objectifs principaux du projet sont de collecter des données sur les déplacements et les impacts sur les communautés, fournir un appui aux activités génératrices de revenus, et contribuer au renforcement des capacités des personnes déplacées et des communautés d'accueil et des partenaires, en particulier les femmes, les hommes et, le cas échéant, les ménages les plus vulnérables des communautés d'accueil.

Le déploiement de la Matrice de suivi des déplacements (Displacement Tracking Matrix – DTM) par l’OIM dans le cadre de ce projet vise à ce que les partenaires gouvernementaux et les agences humanitaires ont accès à des informations actualisées et précises sur les besoins des déplacés internes et des communautés d'accueil dans les communes et fokontany évalués.

Les résultats présentés ci-dessous sont le fruit des évaluations menées en juin 2023 dans 15 communes : Vatovavy (Mananjary, Tsiatosika, Tsarahafatra, Nosy Varika, Soavina), Fitovinany (Manakara, Sahasinaka, Vohimasina Sud, Ambohimisafy, Andefapony), Atsimo Atsinanana (Farafangana, Tangainiony, Vangaindrano, Befotaka, Nosifeno).

Since October 8 there has been an increase in cross-border incidents between Israel and Lebanon, resulting in the displacement of people both within the South and elsewhere within the country. Since October 10, the Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) has been conducting the daily monitoring of population movements. The objective of the exercise is to inform preparedness and response planning.

IOM’s Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) collected data on Ukrainian nationals and TCNs (resided in Ukraine before 24 February 2022) that were crossing back to Ukraine from or through Romania, either temporarily or permanently. The survey focuses on the return intentions, duration of displacement, destinations, assistance, and experiences of discrimination of respondents. A total of 1,098 surveys were collected between April and June 2024. Among these, less than one per cent (n=5) were completed by TCNs, while the vast majority, comprising over 99 per cent (n=1,093), were completed by Ukrainian nationals. The analysis presented in this report is based on the responses provided by Ukrainian nationals.

The travel intentions of the surveyed Ukrainian nationals show that most respondents (57%) were “short-term visitors”, while 28% per-cent were prospective returnees. Another 15 per cent were not sure regarding their visit period. Also, most UA citizens were travelling back to their oblast of origin (87%).

DTM Flow Monitoring, conducted by IOM Afghanistan, is designed to provide insights into the mobility patterns at Afghanistan’s border points with the Islamic Republic of Iran and Pakistan. This activity involves two interlinked exercises: Flow Monitoring Counting (FMC), which monitors the number of movements across the border, and Flow Monitoring Surveys (FMS), which collect data on the profiles of randomly selected Afghan nationals crossing the border including documentation held, reasons for travel, and the intended period of stay/ travel. It is important to note that DTM collects information on total movements at a given border point, not the number of unique individuals entering or leaving the country. As a result, if one individual both left and re-entered Afghanistan during the reporting period, this would count as one outflow movement and one inflow movement. Movements can be attributed to a wide variety of reasons, including returnees coming back to Afghanistan after living abroad, people visiting family, deportees, those travelling for economic reasons, medical patients, students, or Afghans moving abroad for different reasons. Circular movements, which include those who frequently and regularly travel back and forth across the border for trade and other reasons, are also common. This monitoring offers a clear picture of population movements in and out of the country. 

DTM FM is operational at four main crossing points (connected to Afghanistan’s National Highway) as well as six other crossing points with Islamic Republic of Iran and Pakistan. This weekly snapshot combines information from the FM activity and various IOM sources related to cross-border movement. For a detailed explanation of the methodology used in gathering this data, the report directs readers to the section titled “IOM INFLOW DATA” on the last page.

In August 2024, Transhumance Flow Monitoring tool identified 446 herders in Kaduna State and 71 herders in Katsina State. The animal count was estimated at 1,105 for Kaduna State and 467 for Katsina State. Notably, 97 per cent of the total number of herders departed from states within Nigeria, while the remaining three per cent departed from Niger.
