Estos eventos generaron que diferentes personas extranjeras y nacionales se queden varadas por varios días sin tener la posibilidad de salir de Puno hacia sus destinos. De la misma manera, el recojo de información para los conteos se vio afectado, con la finalidad de proteger la integridad de las personas, el conteo 7 de diciembre se realizó hasta el mediodía y los conteos del de diciembre se suspendieron. Gracias al cese de protestas sociales que se dio el 21 de diciembre, el conteo 30 de diciembre se llevó a cabo con normalidad.

El seguimiento de los flujos en la frontera está en línea con los lineamientos del subcomponente de registros de la metodología de Matriz de Seguimiento de Desplazamiento (DTM por sus siglas en inglés). Este producto informativo se basa en conteos por observación de los flujos de personas venezolanas tanto de entrada como de salida, realizados el 07, 30 de diciembre del 2022, en dos puntos estratégicos para el cruce de la frontera entre Perú y el Estado Plurinacional de Bolivia (en adelante Bolivia) en Desaguadero. Para este conteo participaron ocho enumeradores, dos por cada punto en dos turnos durante el día de observación.

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 18 June to 01 July 2022, 2,906 undocumented Afghan migrants returned to Afghanistan from Pakistan, including 705 through the Torkham border point and 2,201 through the Chaman border point. During the reporting period, border authorities facilitated the return of 74 individuals due to the lack of legal documentation to remain in Pakistan. Therefore, information concerning these 74 individuals is not included in the report analysis.

The objective of this report is to consolidate and present the information collected by the International Organization for Migration (IOM) during focus group discussions (FGDs) and key informants interviews (KIIs) in Ali Sabieh and Dikhil in order to inform programmatic interventions to assist vulnerable migrants, especially women and children, in the southern regions of Djibouti. This report brings to light new migration dynamics and needs, while highlighting the obstacles for migrants to accessbasic services in the targeted areas.

Mozambique’s National Institute for Disaster Management (INGD) estimates 1.75 million people to be affected by recent floods and subsequent landfall of the tropical storm Freddy across central and southern Mozambique. Making landfall on 24 February 2023, Tropical Storm Freddy has impacted the provinces of Gaza, Inhambane, Manica, Sofala and Zambezia. As of 27 February 2023, available reports indicate 3,075 individuals (851 families) have taken shelter in 7 accommodation centres (ACs) across Sofala, 135 individuals (36 families) in 2 ACs across Inhambane and 5,581 individuals (1,269 families) in 13 ACs in Gaza. The majority of these centres are schools and churches. Reported priority needs include WASH, protection, health, food and emergency shelters. As rain and flood conditions develop, ongoing joint assessments with INGD and humanitarian partners monitor the needs and conditions of affected populations in the region. For further information see Mozambique: Severe Tropical Storm Freddy and Floods - Flash Update No.5 (as of 26 February 2023).

This background paper on Nigerien Migrant Workers in Libya aims to provide an overview of the situation and opportunities for this population. It was produced with the aim of guiding the operationalisation of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) on labour migration signed by both states in 2021. The document was initiated by Labour Mobility and Social Inclusion (LMI) unit, using DTM data sources, including IOM’s Flow Monitoring Survey (FMS) as well as qualitative interviews with Nigerien migrant workers collected in June 2022. The report provides significant insights into Nigerien migrant workers conditions, including their mode of entry in Libya; employment status; access to documentation; ability to send remittances and mobility intentions. 

The paper emphasizes that Nigerien migrants play a vital role in Libyan economy, providing a much-needed skilled workforce. As such, the operationalisation and creation of regular pathways between Niger and Libya is paramount to ensure the protection of Nigerien Migrant workers in Libya.

The Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) provides primary data and information on internal displacement and population movements – incountry and at regional and global levels. DTM’s work worldwide informs humanitarian, recovery, transition and development interventions by providing timely data and analysis to relevant actors including governments, United Nations partner agencies, donors and other stakeholders. DTM operates in contexts where conflict, natural disasters and complex emergency settings can cause short-term or protracted displacement, as well as in mixed migration contexts. In the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, there were 15.7 million internally displaced persons (IDPs) in 2021. This figure constitutes 26 per cent of the global population of IDPs, making MENA the region with the second highest concentration of IDPs worldwide (following the sub-Saharan Africa region). Most displacement in the MENA region (81%) has been triggered by armed conflict, in particular in Iraq, Libya, Syria and Yemen.

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 1 January to 25 February 2023, IOM Yemen DTM tracked 1,503 households (HH) (9,018 Individuals) who experienced displacement at least once.

Between 19 and 25 February 2023, IOM Yemen DTM tracked 42 households (252 individuals) displaced at least once. The majority of people moved into/within the following governorates and districts:

• Ma’rib (24 HHs) – Ma’rib City (23 HHs), Ma’rib (1 HH) districts. Most displacements in the governorate originated from Ibb and Ta’iz.
• Al Hodeidah (11 HHs) – Hays (7 HHs), Al Khukhah (4 HHs) districts. Most displacements in the governorate originated from Ta’iz and Al Hodeidah.
• Shabwah (7 HHs) – Bayhan (7 HHs) district. Most displacements in the governorate originated from Abyan and Al Bayda.

The majority of people moved from the following governorates and districts:                                                                      

• Ta’iz  (11 HHs) – Maqbanah (7 HHs), Mawiyah (2 HHs), Al Mawasit (2 HHs) districts.
• Al Hodeidah (6 HHs) – At Tuhayta (4 HHs), Al Jarrahi (2 HHs) districts.
• Abyan (6 HHs) – Mudiyah (5 HHs), Al Wadi (1 HH) districts.

La transhumance est une méthode d’élevage par laquelle les éleveurs accompagnent leurs troupeaux à la recherche de pâturages et de points d’eau. Le changement climatique, la situation économique morose et la diminution des pâturages et point d’eau ont accentué ce phénomène, poussant les transhumants à parcourir de plus longues distances. Des couloirs de passage sont aménagés pour faire place au passage des animaux dans les zones de culture ou pour leur offrir un accès à l’eau. Le déplacement des troupeaux le long de ces couloirs peut affecter les récoltes des paysans. Ces dernières années, les conflits entre agriculteurs et éleveurs le long des couloirs de transhumance sont devenus de plus en plus récurrents. Pour fournir plus d’informations sur les mouvements de transhumance, l’OIM a développé l’outil de Suivi de transhumances (Transhumance Tracking Tool, TTT). Ce rapport présente le résultat des collectes effectuées par les énumérateurs au niveau de  points stratégiques dans les provinces de : Batha, Ouaddaï, Salamat et Sila, a fin de comptabiliser le nombre d'animaux passant la frontière dans le but de fournir une estimation des flux de transhumances entre le Tchad et le Nigeria au cours des mois de novembre et décembre 2022.
