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 01 January 2022 to 15 January 2022, IOM Yemen DTM estimates that 1,237 households (HH) (7,422 Individuals) have experienced displacement at least once.

Since the beginning of 2022, DTM also identified 004 displaced households who left their locations of displacement and either moved back to their place of origin or another location.

Between 09 and 15 January 2022, IOM Yemen DTM tracked 315 households (1,890 individuals) displaced at least once. The top three governorates and districts where people moved into/within are:

• Al Hodeidah (222 HH) – Hays (210 HH), Al Khukhah (12 HH) districts. Most displacements in the governorate originated from Al Hodeidah and Taiz.
• Marib (39 HH) – Marib City (21 HH), Marib (18 HH) districts. Most displacements in the governorate originated from Al Jawf and Marib.
• Ad Dali (31 HH) – Ad Dali (20 HH), Qatabah (8 HH), Al Hasayn (3 HH) districts. Most displacements in the governorate originated from Ad Dali and Al Hodeidah.

Most displacements resulted from the increased conflict in the following governorates and districts.

• Al Hodeidah (155 HH) – Hays (122 HH), Al Jarrahi (14 HH), Jabal Ras (5 HH) districts.
• Taiz  (84 HH) – Maqbanah (82 HH), Al Mawasit (1 HH), Al Qahirah (1 HH) districts.
• Ad Dali (22 HH) – Qatabah (18 HH), Al Husha (3 HH), Damt (1 HH) districts.

The DTM Emergency Event Tracking (EET) is deployed to track sudden displacement and population movements, provide more frequent updates on the scale of displacement, and quantify the affected population when needed. As a subcomponent of the new Mobility Tracking methodology in Sudan (Round Three), and activated on a need basis, EET utilises a broad network of key informants to capture best estimates of the affected population presence per location – a useful tool for humanitarian response planning and design.

Au cours de ce sixième cycle d’évaluation couvrant le mois d’août 2021, les évaluations DTM ont permis de dénombrer 1 479 709 Personnes Déplacées Internes (PDIs) résidant dans des familles d’accueil (84% du total) et 81 447 personnes déplacées vivant dans 43 sites spontanés et centres collectifs1 dans la province (4% du total) (F5B). À cela s’ajoutent les 203 938 PDIs (12%) dans les 50 sites couverts par le mécanisme CCCM2 . Il est estimé à 1.765.094 personnes le nombre total de PDIs dans la province, soit environ 31% de la population3 totale de l’Ituri. Ce qui est comparable aux 1 706 705 personnes en situation de déplacement lors de la dernière évaluation conduite en avril 2021.

IOM Pakistan collects data on the outflows of undocumented Afghan migrants at the Torkham and Chaman border crossing points in an effort to better understand the migration movements of undocumented Afghan migrants returning to Afghanistan from Pakistan. This exercise is part of the European Union funded project “Displacement Tracking Matrix Regional Evidence for Migration Analysis and Policy (DTM REMAP)”.

From 19 December to 31 December 2021, 2,623 undocumented Afghan migrants returned to Afghanistan, including 227 through the Torkham border point and 2,396 through the Chaman border point. During the reporting period, border authorities facilitated the return of 40 individuals due to the lack of legal documentation to remain in Pakistan. Therefore, information concerning these 40 individuals is not included in the report analysis.
