Between 4 and 9 September 2024, the Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM), in collaboration with the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS), the Nasarawa State Emergency Management Agency (NASEMA), and the Nigerian Red Cross Society (NRCS), identified 30 locations in Nasarawa State that were impacted by floods. Through a network of  key informants and field focal points, and in close coordination with other humanitarian partners and local authorities, DTM conducted assessments in these locations to provide insights to the humanitarian community on the affected population's primary needs, vulnerabilities, and mobility intentions.
In the seven (7) local government areas (LGAs) of Nasarawa State that were assessed, DTM identified 36,777 individuals in 7,654 households affected by the floods. The floods displaced many residents, while some remained in their affected communities. The affected population included 24,948 individuals and 6,143 returnees. Twenty-three per cent (23%) of the affected houses are habitable but need repair, 21 per cent of the houses are partially damaged and 24 per cent of the houses are totally destroyed. In 77 per cent (77%) of the locations assessed, crop farming was among the primary sources of income.

Between 4 and 8 September 2024, the Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM), in collaboration with the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA), the Kaduna State Emergency Management Agency (KADSEMA) and the Nigerian Red Cross Society (NRCS), identified 37 locations in Kaduna State that were impacted by floods or received internally displaced persons (IDPs) due to the flooding. Through a network of 8 key informants and field focal points, and in close coordination with other humanitarian partners and local authorities, DTM conducted assessments in these locations to provide insights to the humanitarian community on the affected population's primary needs, vulnerabilities, and mobility intentions.
In the six local government areas (LGAs) of Kaduna State that were assessed, DTM identified 16,078 individuals in 2,526 households affected by the floods. These individuals included IDPs displaced by the floods and residents impacted by the floods but remained in their communities. Twenty-four per cent (24%) of the affected houses are habitable but need repairs, 20 per cent were partially damaged and 7 per cent were completely destroyed. In 89 per cent of the locations assessed, crop farming was among the primary sources of income.

This report presents information on displacement dynamics in Haiti, from surveys conducted from 11 June to 13 August 2024 among 8,911 households from the main categories of populations affected by displacement in the country: internally displaced households in sites, internally displaced households out of sites and communities hosting displaced persons.

The report provides analyses on the relationships between host communities and displaced persons, the impact of IDPs' arrival in host communities, the displacement history of IDPs as well as their return intentions.

The objective of these analyses is to strengthen the understanding of displacement dynamics in Haiti in order to better effectively inform both humanitarian interventions and strategies for durable solutions to internal displacement.

During these surveys, in addition to in-depth data on displacement dynamics, data on the multi-sectoral needs of target populations were also collected. Thematic reports focusing on these needs will be published separately.

Round 8, which took place from August 1 to September 4, 2024, indicates the presence of 702,973 internally displaced persons in Haiti, almost 22% more than in Round 7.

The armed attacks in the municipality of Gressier (located in the West department, outside the MAPAP) are the main reason for this increase; this municipality has been almost emptied of its population following these attacks and has become the second municipality of origin of IDPs in the country whereas it was in 5th position during Round 7.

 A slight decrease (6%) in the number of IDPs was observed in the MAPAP, reflecting the continuation of displacement from the capital to provinces but in smaller proportions compared to the period of March-April 2024. Returns of some IDPs that was also observed, in particular in certain neighborhoods of the municipality of Cité Soleil (see the section on returnees).

 The MAPAP currently hosts a quarter of the country's IDPs, compared to nearly a third in Round 7 (25% in Round 8 vs 32% in Round 7).

Provinces thus host 75% of the country's IDPs. In particular, the Great South (departments of South, Grande'Anse, South-East and Nippes) which host almost half of IDPs: 45% of the country's IDPs are hosted in these 4 departments.

  The West Department, particularly the MAPAP, is the provenance of the vast majority of IDPs in all departments. The only exception is Artibonite, where 56% of IDPs fled from areas within the same department..

 At the national level, the majority of IDPs are hosted in host families/out of sites: 83% (vs 17% in sites). However, in the MAPAP the majority of IDPs reside in sites (63% in sites vs. 37% in host families/out of sites), while in provinces the opposite is true (98% in host families/out of sites vs. 2% in sites).

, 65,535 returnees formerly IDPs were identified, particularly in the commune of Cité Soleil where a 151% increase in the number of returnees was observed. It should be noted that for the moment these returns remain very fragile and are not sustainable, particularly in the MAPAP. Indeed, returnees are often displaced again following new attacks in their return area: in the MAPAP, 52% of IDPs have already been displaced more than once and these multiple movements include new ones after returning home  

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 21 September 2024, IOM Yemen DTM tracked 2,679 households (HH) (16,074 Individuals) who experienced displacement at least once.

Between 15 and 21 September 2024, IOM Yemen DTM tracked 28 households (168 individuals) displaced at least once. The majority of people moved into/within the following governorates and districts:

• Ma’rib (22 HHs) – Ma’rib City (16 HHs), Ma’rib (6 HHs) districts. Most displacements in the governorate originated from Al Hodeidah and Sanaa.
• Al Hodeidah (5 HHs) – Al Khukhah (3 HHs), Hays (2 HHs) districts. Most displacements in the governorate were internal.
• Lahj (1 HH) – Tuban (1 HH) district. All displacements in the governorate originated from Al Hodeidah.

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

• Al Hodeidah (9 HHs) – At Tuhayta (4 HHs), Bayt Al Faqih (1 HH), Al Qanawis (1 HH) districts.
• Sana’a(4 HHs) – At Tyal (2 HHs), Nihm (2 HHs) districts.
• Hajjah (4 HHs) – Khayran Al Muharraq (3 HHs), Abs (1 HH) districts.

IOM identified 18 additional households displaced in the previous reporting period, which covered 08 - 14 September 2024, in the governorates of Al Hodeidah (9 HHs), Ma’rib (8 HHs), and Ta’iz (1 HH). These figures have been added to the cumulative displacement total recorded since the beginning of the year.

DTM Flow Monitoring, conducted by IOM Afghanistan, is designed to provide insights into the mobility patterns at Afghanistan’s border points with the Islamic Republic of Iran and Pakistan. This activity involves two interlinked exercises: Flow Monitoring Counting (FMC), which monitors the number of movements across the border, and Flow Monitoring Surveys (FMS), which collect data on the profiles of randomly selected Afghan nationals crossing the border including documentation held, reasons for travel, and the intended period of stay/ travel. It is important to note that DTM collects information on total movements at a given border point, not the number of unique individuals entering or leaving the country. As a result, if one individual both left and re-entered Afghanistan during the reporting period, this would count as one outflow movement and one inflow movement. Movements can be attributed to a wide variety of reasons, including returnees coming back to Afghanistan after living abroad, people visiting family, deportees, those travelling for economic reasons, medical patients, students, or Afghans moving abroad for different reasons. Circular movements, which include those who frequently and regularly travel back and forth across the border for trade and other reasons, are also common. This monitoring offers a clear picture of population movements in and out of the country. 

DTM FM is operational at four main crossing points (connected to Afghanistan’s National Highway) as well as six other crossing points with Islamic Republic of Iran and Pakistan. This weekly snapshot combines information from the FM activity and various IOM sources related to cross-border movement. For a detailed explanation of the methodology used in gathering this data, the report directs readers to the section titled “IOM INFLOW DATA” on the last page.
 

The Flood Displacement Summary summarizes DTM updates on incidents of flood-induced displacement across Sudan.  

Between 01 June and 20 September 2024, DTM Sudan reported 123 incidents of heavy rains and floods that triggered sudden displacement in Sudan. Rains and floods displaced an estimated 180,835 individuals (36,167 households) from locations across 15 different states in Sudan.  

This report outlines incidents of flood-induced displacement between 14 September and 20 September 2024. Information on earlier reported incidents is available on the DTM Sudan website. 

Highlights
