The DTM Emergency Tracking Tool (ETT) is deployed to track and to collect information on large and sudden population movements, provide frequent updates on the scale of displacement and quantify the affected population when needed. As a sub-component of the Mobility Tracking methodology in Nigeria, ETT utilises direct observations and a broad network of key informants to capture best estimates of the affected population per location, enabling targeted humanitarian response planning.

Between 06 and 12 March 2023, a total of 2,643 new arrivals were recorded in locations in Adamawa and Borno states. The new arrivals were recorded at locations in Askira/Uba, Bama, Biu, Dikwa, Damboa, Gwoza, Monguno, Ngala, and Kala Balge Local Government Areas (LGAs) of the most conflict-affected state of Borno and in Fufore, Gombi, Hong, Lamurde, Michika, Maiha, Mubi South, Mubi North, Numan, Song, Yola South and Yola North LGAs of Adamawa state.

Between 26 February and 11 March 2023, 6,264 undocumented Afghan nationals spontaneously returned to Afghanistan, including 3,132 through the Torkham border point and 3,132 through the Chaman border point. Border authorities facilitated the return of 422 individuals due to the lack of legal documentation to remain in Pakistan. Therefore, information about these individuals are not included in the count. Although IOM identified 13,745 undocumented Afghan returnees at two border crossings, this may not reflect the total number of undocumented Afghan returnees. Moreover, for this study, only the head of household or representative of the family were interviewed. This means that the number of interviews conducted by the enumerators is lower than the number of returnees recorded by IOM. Between 26 February and 11 March 2023, IOM interviewed 243 respondents.

This report explores the factors that influence migrants’ access to the rental housing market with the objective to support programming efforts to help migrants successfully navigate the rental housing market on equitable grounds. This study is based on evidence from four key urban centres in Libya (Tripoli, Misrata, Benghazi and Sebha).

The study found that sociodemographic factors, such as language skills, nationality, socioeconomic status, cultural affinity and gender were among the most important factors that influence migrants’ ability to navigate the rental housing market.
