K 30. listopadu 2023 bylo podle vnitrostátních orgánů v Česku registrováno 371 325 uprchlíků z Ukrajiny, kteří požádali o dočasnou ochranu. Tato bezprecedentní situace klade obrovské nároky na všechny zúčastněné, od samotných uprchlíků přes státní správu až po všechny občany Česka.

Potřeba zajistit uprchlíkům ubytování a základní finanční podporu byla velkou výzvou od prvních měsíců roku 2022. Až do července 2023 bylo ubytování uprchlíků z Ukrajiny financováno státem. To se však změnilo, když vstoupila v platnost legislativní novela známá jako „Lex Ukrajina V“, která přinesla změny

v podpoře ubytování uprchlíků a výpočtu humanitární finanční podpory. Tyto změny se dotkly značného počtu uprchlíků z Ukrajiny.

Cílem této zprávy je popsat bytovou a finanční situaci ukrajinských uprchlíků v Česku na základě údajů shromážděných v období od srpna do září 2023 a upozornit na situaci osob, které z hlediska své finanční situace patří mezi nejzranitelnější.

As of 30 November 2023, 371,325 refugees from Ukraine including TCNs registered for temporary protection in Czechia according to national authorities. This unprecedented situation puts enormous demands on everyone involved, from the refugees themselves, to the state administration, to all citizens of Czechia.

The need to provide accommodation and basic financial support for refugees was a huge challenge since refugees started arriving in the first months of 2022. Until July 2023, accommodation for refugees from Ukraine has been funded by the state. This, however, changed when the legislative amendment known as "Lex Ukraine V" came into force (further referred to as “Lex Ukraine", with changes to refugee housing support and the calculation of humanitarian financial support. These changes affected a significant number of refugees from Ukraine.

The aim of this report is to describe housing and financial situation of Ukrainian refugees in Czechia with data collected between August and September 2023, and to draw attention to those who are among the most vulnerable in terms of their financial situation.

The Central African Republic (CAR), which has experienced continuous volatility for the past two decades, has been riddled by a crisis which ignited in 2012 with a violent takeover of power and has developed into a complex protracted state of permanent insecurity and fragility which has spilled over into neighbouring countries. The crisis is characterized by power struggles amongst elites, the absence of state institutions and public investment, religious and ethnic tensions and disputes for the control of key resources. More recently, the crisis in Sudan, which started in April 2023, is affecting the eastern part of the CAR witnessing arrivals of displaced populations.

As of December 2023, 3,926,402 individuals were affected, including 504,992 internally displaced persons (13% of the displaced population), 2,125,798 returnees former IDPs (54%), 513,037 returnees from abroad (13%) and 782,575 refugees (20%). In the CAR, the largest displaced population consists of former IDP returnees. Refugees from the CAR are primarily hosted by Cameroon (353,701 individuals, or 47% of the refugees), the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) (212,217 individuals, or 28% of the refugees) and Chad (130,044 individuals, or 17% of the refugees).

Overview  
 
The displacement crisis in Sudan has been unfolding for over two decades, with roots in the Darfur conflict beginning in 2003. However, the current conflict between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) has drastically reshaped displacement dynamics across Sudan since 15 April 2023.  

Armed clashes in multiple cities across Sudan have displaced an estimated 6,036,176 IDPs over the past nine months. Prior to 15 April 2023, Sudan already hosted as estimated 3,820,772 IDPs. 

To estimate the overall number of IDPs in Sudan, including both those displaced before and after 15 April 2023, DTM Sudan carried out extensive analysis of its displacement data which is presented in this report. The methodology used accounts for secondary displacement to estimate the baseline figure for the total number of IDPs in Sudan to inform humanitarian partners.  
 
Sudan hosts an estimated 9,052,822 internally displaced persons (IDPs) as of 31 December 2023, representing the largest internal displacement crisis worldwide.
