l’Organisation Internationale pour les Migrations (OIM) a réalisé à travers la Matrice de Suivi des Déplacements (Displacement Tracking Matrix, DTM) une évaluation multisectorielle des besoins auprès des ménages fuyant les violences au Tchad et des ménages hôtes qui les hébergent afin d’informer les stratégies et programmes des acteurs humanitaires et du gouvernement. La collecte de données a été réalisée entre le samedi 8 et le vendredi 21 juillet dans les communes de Mia-Pendé et de Bah-Bessar dans la préfecture d’Ouham-Pendé avec la participation du Projet d’Appui au Retour et à la Réintégration en RCA (PARET).

Detention Centre Profiling is a component of IOM Libya’s Displacement Matrix programme. It is a data oriented tool that routinely provides specific sex and age demographic data and key sectorial information on individuals held in Libya’s detention centres on the date of assessment.

IOM, together with the Serbian Commissariat for Refugees and Migration (KIRS), carried out a customized survey of Afghan nationals in Serbia from 23 March to 4 April 2023. IOM interviewed 100 Afghan nationals in three reception facilities across Serbia to better understand their demographic profiles as well as migration drivers and onward intentions.

Starting on 24 February 2022, the Russian Federation (RF) launched a large-scale invasion of Ukraine, triggering an unprecedented humanitarian crisis across Ukraine. Since 9 March 2022, the IOM’s Data and Analytics Unit began systematically conducting a highly representative assessment of the general population in Ukraine to gather information on displacement, mobility flows, intentions, and conditions to inform targeted assistance to the war-affected population. Over the course of March 2022 to January 2023, the IOM’s Data and Analytics successfully carried out 12 rounds of the General Population Survey. Initially conducted bi-monthly and later transitioning to a monthly frequency, the results were extrapolated at both national and macro-regional levels. As of May 2023, the survey methodology underwent adaptation to generate quarterly representative data at the oblast level, thus facilitating localized analysis. This methodological note outlines the comprehensive assessment methodology and sampling design. 

The Oblast profiles are based on the IOM General Population Survey Round 13 dataset, a highly representative assessment with over 20,000 random respondents interviewed nationwide. The survey provides population data as well as insights into the needs, situation and mobility intentions of IDPs, returnees and the non-displaced population in Ukraine. The data was collected between 11 May and 14 June 2023. The population estimates for each indicator have been extrapolated using the latest update to the UNFPA baseline population in Ukraine. The Oblast profiles serve as a valuable reference point to support evidence-based decision-making for stakeholders involved in response and recovery efforts in Ukraine, providing key definitions and data points related to population mobility, pathways to durable solutions, and vulnerabilities associated with displacement.

In Asia and the Pacific, human mobility, including both migration and displacement, due to disasters caused by natural hazards is at an all-time high and is set to rise significantly in the coming decades due to climate change. The region has consistently accounted for the largest share of global disaster displacement with record heights over the last few years.

Over the past 10 years, disasters have caused 225.3 million internal displacements in the region, representing around 78 percent of the global total (IDMC, 2022a). Disasters caused by hazards such as typhoons, floods, earthquakes and volcanic eruptions were the main drivers, resulting in 13.7 million new displacements in 2021 alone and constituting 58 percent of the global total for disaster displacement (IDMC, 2022b). This resulted in the highest level of disaster displacement the region has ever recorded, exceeding the decade-long average of 11.6 million (IDMC, 2022b).

These alarming numbers highlight a trend that is only growing and intensifying as the climate crisis deepens. It further showcases a gap where more needs to be done to protect and mitigate the impact of natural and human-induced hazards on these particularly vulnerable populations.

There is growing evidence that acting prior to the onset of a predictable shock is significantly more effective, faster and more dignified than traditional humanitarian response. This is what is known as anticipatory action. It links early warnings to pre-emptive actions designed to protect communities and their assets. However, while the approach has gained prominence and is becoming a staple in the disaster risk management (DRM) toolbox, its link to human mobility contexts remains relatively unexplored, despite the strong relationships between climate hazards, displacement and climate-induced migration. This paper, combining the efforts of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the International Organization for Migration (IOM), aims to fill this gap and examine opportunities to integrate a human mobility lens within anticipatory action

In the month of July 2023, floods were reported in Kapelebyong & Gulu, human epidemics outbreaks (Cholera) in Kayunga, Namayingo & Nakaseke (rift valley fever) and road accidents in Kagadi and Kampala. The disasters affected a total of 2,040 individuals, representing 300 households and displaced internally 156 individuals from 30 households. The hazards affected mostly Adults (19-64 years) population group (63%), followed by children  under 18 years (33%) and the elderly who are above 64 years (4%). The most pressing needs are in the affected sub-counties are Health, water supply, sanitation, hygiene promotion among others.

Disasters have so far affected 92,266 individuals and displaced 6,600 people in this year(2023).

There were no other major disaster events reported from other districts as the infographic sheet only presents information received from represented districts.
