This report presents the results of the fourth round of the Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) Flow Monitoring Surveys (FMS) implemented in North Macedonia. The data was collected from 26 June to 31 August 2023, in three flow monitoring points. IOM interviewed a total of 183 individual respondents.
FMS provide a snapshot of the profiles, experiences and needs of migrants transiting through North Macedonia. The survey asks questions on demographics, education and employment backgrounds, the circumstances of the migration journey and migration factors, as well as future intentions.

The quarterly report is developed by combining secondary data obtained from different sources, including government agencies, international organizations, non-profit entities, and other types of organizations. More specifically, the report for the first quarter of 2024 was derived from data from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Bureau of National Statistics, and Border Service of Kazakhstan. The data was compiled through a combination of published sources and direct requests to the partners and government agencies.

Between 10 March and 11 April 2024, the International Organization for Migration (IOM) conducted Round 16 of the General Population Survey (GPS), a highly representative assessment of internal displacement in Ukraine. The data presented in this report was commissioned by the International Organization for Migration (IOM) and collected by 59 enumerators employed by Multicultural Insights through screener phone-based interviews with 20,000 randomly selected respondents and follow-up interviews with 1,428 IDPs, 1,639 returnees, and 2,266 residents, using the computer-assisted telephone interview (CATI) method, and a random digit dial (RDD) approach. 

This report provides the main findings from Round 16 of the GPS, including detailed insights into population figures, mobility intentions, demographic profiles, household composition and vulnerabilities, and needs of the returnee population, to facilitate evidence-based decision-making on strategic, technical, and programmatic aspects of the response and recovery efforts in Ukraine. 

This Information was collected following armed attacks that took place on 13 June 2024 in the municipality section of Lagon located in the municipality of Terre Neuve (Department of Artibonite). As a result of these attacks, 1,060 people were displaced, particularly towards the municipality of Gonaïves (68%). All of these people took refuge with host families.

This information was collected following armed clashes that took place in the lower part of the municipality of Delmas in the Metropolitan Area of Port-au-Prince, since 13 June 2024.
As a result of these clashes, 767 people were displaced and the majority of them (67%) took refuge with host families in neighborhoods in the same municipality and in that of Port-au-Prince. The other 33% took refuge in two spontaneous sites where other displaced persons have been residing for several months. Updates will be published by DTM according to the
evolution of displacements.

Depuis le 27 mai 2024, des violents combats entre les FARDC et le groupe M23 et leurs alliés dans le territoire de Rutshuru se sont rapprochés de l’agglomération de Kanyabayonga, situé à cheval des territoires de Lubero et Rutshuru. Des populations hôtes de villages de la zone de santé de Kibirizi en groupement de Kanyabayonga (villages de Lusuli Bulindi, Lusogha, Burindule, et Butalongola) dans le territoire de Rutshuru et ceux des communes rurales de Kanyabayonga et Bulotwa (territoire de Lubero) ainsi que les personnes déplacées déjà reçues dans les zones affectées ont été contraint de se déplacer vers les zones considérées comme relativement sécure. Ces zones de refuge se trouvent territoire de Lubero dans les zones de santé de Kayna, Alimbongo, et Butembo; et dans le territoire de Walikale dans la zone de santé de Pinga (groupement d’Ikobo). Ces ménages déplacés ont été reçus en majorité dans les familles d’accueil ainsi que dans les centres collectifs. Les besoins humanitaires sont considérables dans l'ensemble des zones touchées et risquent de s'aggraver encore sans une action urgente.

The May rains triggered floods and landslides/mudslides in the most affected districts in Uganda. Most floods in districts bordering the big water bodies are because of the rising water levels. The hazards affected 46,457 individuals (10,191 households), with 12,015 people from 2,854 households internally displaced due to the adverse weather conditions. Adults between 18 and 64 years were the most affected age group (58%), followed by children below the age of 18 (33%) and elderly above 64 (9%). Notably, more than half of affected people were female (59%). Urgent needs have emerged, with food assistance, NFI and sanitation as critical priorities in the aftermath of the hazards.

Infrastructure damage was significant, with 2,341 houses completely destroyed, 519 houses partially damaged, and 98 water facilities, 10 schools and 4 health facilities affected.

It is important to note that the information presented in the dashboard is derived solely from the represented districts, and no other major hazard events were reported from other districts.

In March 2024, a total of 43,252 movements were observed across the six flow monitoring points (FMPs) in Ethiopia. This represents an 11.5% increase in daily average movements in comparison with February 2024 when an average of 1,251 movements per day were observed.

The ratio between outgoing movements (52% or 22,490 individuals) during March and incoming movements (48% or 20,762 individuals) slightly changed. This is due to an increase in returns from Kenya. In February 2024, 4,689 incoming individuals were registered traveling from Kenya, whereas 10,961 incoming individuals from Kenya were observed in March. Historically, recorded outflows have been higher than inflows as seen in the figure below. However, in May and June 2023, due to the outbreak of the Sudan crisis, inflows exceeded outflows.
