The current outbreak of COVID-19 has affected global mobility in the form of various travel disruptions and restrictions. To better understand how COVID-19 affects global mobility, DTM has developed a COVID-19 database mapping the different restrictions to provide a global overview. For this, DTM uses the IATA site as the primary source of restrictions with the information reported per country and territory, and to the country of application.

Data collected includes:

1. Date of restriction 
2. Country, territory or area of restriction
3. Countries, territories or areas on which restrictions were imposed
4. Type of restriction- total restriction, or conditional restriction – such as medical/ and or visa restriction

This DTM COVID-19 Travel Restrictions Output presents an analysis based on country imposing, the country being imposed upon, and the aggregation of the restriction type. The aim of the data analysis is to provide an overview of the COVID-19 outbreak on global mobility and to help identify and develop responses.

RESPONSE

At the time of writing, no assistance has been rendered to the affected population.

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 observation and a broad network of key informants to capture best estimates of the affected population per location, enabling targeted humanitarian response planning.

Between 21 and 27 March 2022, a total of 2,152 movements were recorded in Adamawa and Borno States. The recorded movements consisted of 1,632 arrivals and 520 departures. Arrivals were recorded at locations in Askira/Uba, Bama, Damboa, Gwoza, Kala/Balge, Monguno and Ngala Local Government Areas (LGAs) of the most conflict-affected state of Borno and in Fufore, Girei, Gombi, Hong, Lamurde, Maiha, Michika, Numan, Song and Yola North LGAs of Adamawa State.

Departures were recorded in Askira/Uba, Bama and Gwoza LGAs of Borno State and in Fufore, Gombi, Hong, Lamurde, Maiha, Mubi South, Numan, Song, Yola North and Yola South LGAs of Adamawa State. ETT assessments identified the following movement triggers: voluntary relocation (1,051 individuals or 49%), improved security (504 individuals or 23%), poor living conditions (371 individuals or 17%), military operations (135 individuals or 6%), seasonal farming (58 individuals or 3%) and conflicts/attacks (33 individuals or 2%).

The DTM Emergency Event Tracking (EET) is deployed to track sudden displacement and population movements, provide more frequent updates on the scale of displacement, and quantify the affected population when needed. As a subcomponent of the new Mobility Tracking methodology in Sudan (Round Three), and activated on a needs basis, EET utilises a broad network of key informants to capture best estimates of the affected population presence per location – a useful tool for humanitarian response planning and design.

This snapshot summarizes available data on Pakistani nationals in Europe in 2020 and 2021. The first page visualizes the number of Pakistani nationals who arrived by land and sea in the European Union and those who transited through the Western Balkan and Eastern Europe region in 2021. The data on arrivals and transits is made available by national authorities and then gathered by the IOM DTM Team in Europe.1 It is important not to sum up the figures, as this could entail double counting migrants who transited through multiple countries. The second page shows numbers of Pakistani nationals residing in Europe in 2020 by gender and European region as reported by UNDESA. The snapshot is part of the outputs of the EU-funded Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) project “Regional Evidence for Migration Analysis and Policy” (REMAP). The objective of DTM REMAP is to strengthen the evidence-based formulation and implementation of humanitarian and development policy and programming on migration and forced displacement in Afghanistan, Bangladesh, the Islamic Republic of Iran, Iraq and Pakistan.

L’évaluation rapide de l’OIM (Emergency Tracking Tool, ETT) est un outil mis en place dans le but de collecter des informations sur les mouvements importants et soudains de populations. Ces informations sont collectées à la suite de visites sur le terrain et/ou d’entretiens téléphoniques avec les informateurs clés des sites de déplacement ou des communautés d’accueil. D’autres informations sont ensuite recueillies et analysées à partir des outils d’évaluation rapide multisectorielle (ERM). Ce rapport synthétique présente les résultats de l’évaluation menée par entretiens téléphoniques du 27 au 29 mars 2022 avec des informateurs clés.

Ce rapport présente une analyse des enquêtes de suivi des flux (Flow Monitoring Survey, FMS) réalisées entre juillet 2021 et décembre 2021. Au cours de cette période, 5 868 entretiens ont été menés auprès des voyageurs ayant traversé cinq (5) points de suivi des flux (Flow Monitoring Points, FMPs): Kabogo, Mbundi, Kwa Rutuku, Mukamba et Kabuyenge installés à l’est du Burundi à la frontère avec la République Unie de Tanzanie. Ces enquêtes font parle des activités de suivi des flux mises en oeuvre par l‘OIM par le biais de la matrice de suivi des déplacements (Displacement Tracking Matrix, DTM).

Entre le 14 et le 20 mars 2022, la DTM a identifié 364 personnes affectées, dont 250 personnes déplacées, par les pluies torrentielles, vents violents, Glissement de terrain et innondations dans les provinces de Cibitoke et Bubanza.
