IOM’s Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) interviewed 5,059 households (HHs) representing 37,792 household members (average of 7 individuals / HH) to assess the beneficiary satisfaction among service-receiving IDPs during food distribution following the measures instituted since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. Instead of the previously used fingerprint authentication, beneficiaries’ registration cards were scanned to avoid close contact and maintain social distancing.

In June 2021, DTM targeted 250,566 households representing 974,956 individuals for food distribution verification in 19 locations across Central Equatoria, Jonglei, Unity, Upper Nile, Western Bahr el Ghazal and Abyei Administrative Area.

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.

Le suivi des flux de population (Flow Monitoring, FM) est un exercice qui vise à identifier les zones de forte mobilité interne et transfrontalière à fin de mieux comprendre les caractéristiques des flux migratoires.

Ce rapport présente les données obtenues pendant le mois de Novembre 2021 au niveau des FMPs de Boundou-fourdou dans la préfecture de Koundara au Nord du pays et de Kourémale dans la préfecture de Siguiri au Nord-Est de la Guinée.  Ces données sont collectées lors de l’enregistrement des flux effectués auprès des voyageurs.  ​

During the reporting period (08 to 14 December 2021), a total of 38 movements were recorded - 16 arrivals (311 individuals),10 transits (311bindividuals), 8 departures (49 individuals), and 4 intended return movements (134 individuals). The largest individual arrivals were recorded in Ancuabe (75 individuals) and Nangade (53 individuals). The largest intended return movements were observed in Montepuez (51 individuals and 32 individuals). The largest transits were recorded in Montepuez (162 individuals and 139 individuals, with both groups leaving diff­erent areas of Montepuez, and transiting through Montepuez sede, in order to travel to Palma). Of the total population (37%) were displaced for the first time, and 63 per cent of reported IDPs had been displaced more than once prior to this latest movement.

El 20 de marzo de 2020, bajo el Titulo 42 del Código de Estados Unidos, el director de los Centros para el Control y la Prevención de Enfermedades (CDC) emitio una orden suspendiendo temporalmente el ingreso a lost Estados Unidos (EE.UU.) de ciertas personas extranjeras. La orden permite el retorno de las personas que cruzaron a los EE.UU. vía sus fronteras terrestres con Canadá o México a un país de tránsito, las cuales por su situación migratoria tendrían que estar en entornos o alojamientos colectivos si fueran admitidas a los EE.UU. de manera regular, independiente de su nacionalidad.

Desde la emisión de la orden, la Patrulla Fronteriza (U.S. Border Patrol) ha realizado más de 845.000 expulsiones bajo el Título 42. A pesar de que en noviembre de 2020 el gobierno estadounidense modificó la orden para que no aplicase a niños, niñas y adolescentes; en la primera mitad del 2021 se realizaron más de 450.000 retornos.
