This report, which presents the results from Round 11 of Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) assessments carried out by the International Organization for Migration (IOM), in collaboration with the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) and State Emergency Management Agencies (SEMAs) in the north-central and north-west regions, aims to improve the understanding of the scope of internal displacement. This report presents information on the numbers, living conditions and needs of displaced populations in the north-central and north-west regions affected by the crisis. The data was collected directly from internally displaced persons (IDPs) in 881 wards located in 180 Local Government Areas (LGAs) across the states Benue, Nasarawa, Plateau and Kaduna (north-central) and Kano, Sokoto, Katsina and Zamfara (north-west) between 03 and 31 December 2022.

The Round 11 of DTM assessments identified 1,190,293 IDPs in 191,688 households across the eight states covered in northcentral and north-west Nigeria, representing an increase of 102,418 individuals (9%) compared to the 1,087,875 IDPs identified during the last Round of assessments, conducted in October 2022 (Round 10). While there was a significant increase in displaced persons due to the flood incidents reported in some north-central states such as Benue and Nasarawa, there was a considerable decrease recorded between Round 10 and Round 11 since some locations in LGA Maradun in the State of Zamfara were not accessible for DTM enumerators because of ongoing insecurities.

El presente reporte DTM incluye información de caracterización por sexo y rango etario de la población refugiada y migrante nacional venezolana presente en los departamentos de Colombia seleccionados para la recolección y su intención de desplazamiento hacia otros países de la región.  

The Registered IDP Area Baseline Assessment provides granular data on the number and geographic location of officially registered internally displaced persons (IDPs). Data collection for the Area Baseline assessment Round 21 took place between 1 and 28 February 2023 across 23 oblasts and Kyiv city. In the areas covered, the number of recorded IDPs was collected for 109 raions and 999 hromadas (70% of all hromadas in the covered oblasts). Compared with Round 20, the number of recorded IDPs was collected in an additional 32 hromadas. Gender disaggregated figures were provided across 60 per cent of hromadas.

Mozambique’s National Institute for Disaster Management (INGD) estimates 565,000 people to be affected by the second landfall of Tropical Storm Freddy - directly impacting communities of Zambezia, Sofala and Tete. As of 10 March, INGD have identified at approximately 240,000 people already affected by the first landfall of Tropical Storm Freddy (24 February) as well as recent floods recorded in central and southern Mozambique. As of 20 March 2023, available reports indicate 87,951 individuals (19,365 families) in 120 ACs across Zambezia, 32,221 individuals (7,115 families) have taken shelter in 44 accommodation centres (ACs) across Sofala, 12,344 individuals (2,607 families) in 28 ACs across Tete, 3,634 individuals (792 families) in 15 ACs across Inhambane, 318 individuals (77 families) in 5 ACs across Manica, and 4,132 individuals (825 families) in 13 AC in Niassa. The majority of these centres are schools and churches. Reported priority needs include WASH, protection, health, food and emergency shelters. As rain and flood events develop, ongoing joint assessments with INGD and humanitarian partners monitor the needs and conditions of affected populations in the region. While movements remain dynamic in Zambezia impacted districts, accomadation Centres out of the reported 120 Accomadation Centres require further validation.

Entre le 12 et le 18 mars 2023, la DTM a identifié 15 personnes affectées, dont 15 personnes déplacées par les vents violents dans la province de Rutana.

As a subcomponent of the Mobility Tracking methodology (Round Five), the Emergency Event Tracking (EET) tool is deployed to track sudden displacement, provide more frequent updates on the scale of displacement, and quantify the affected population when needed.
