Du 10 avril au 8 mai 2024, en collaboration avec l’ONG nationale, Réseau d’Action pour le Développement et le Progrès Intégré (RADPI) et la Division Provinciale des Affaires Humanitaires (DIVAH), la DTM a mené des évaluations des mouvements de population dans 5 318 villages, couvrant 34 zones de santé. Selon les informations recueillies, au cours de cette douzième round d'évaluations, auprès de 16 575 informateurs clés, 1 395 604 personnes déplacées et 538 974 personnes retournées sont présentes dans 76 pour cent de la province évaluée.

Key Findings

• Nearly half of respondents experienced inclusion problems related to housing (42%), followed by lack of employment (33%), lack of access to services (13%) and problems related to access to school (5%).*
• Language barrier was the main inclusion challenge experienced by 54 per cent of respondents, followed by financial barrier (51%). Another 16 per cent experienced discrimination while in displacement.*
• The most important needs cited by respondents were financial support (77%) and food assistance (60%). This was followed by health-care services (39%) and the need for long-term housing (38%).
• Most respondents faced financial insecurity, as seven out of ten (71%) respondents would have been unable to cover an unexpected expense of 100 euros.
• Among unemployed respondents, 62 per cent were in need of labour market counseling.
• Among respondents, 23 per cent shared meals with locals at least once a month and communicated with locals at least 3 times a month.
• Among respondents, 33 per cent rarely or never felt like an outsider and had at least a moderately strong connection to the host country.
• Close connection to the host community increased from 56 per cent among those having stayed for 1 year or less in Hungary to 81 per cent among those having spent more than 2 years in the country.
• Among respondents, 72 per cent enrolled their infants (0-4 years old) in childcare facilities while 84 per cent enrolled their children (5-17 years old) in local schools.
• Two-thirds of respondents were registered with a general practitioner (66%) and 79 per cent registered their children with a paediatrician.

On1 July 2024, Hurricane Beryl struck Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, causing widespread devastation, particularly on Union Island, Canouan, and Mayreau, where the entire population was affected. This report provides an overview of the situation in shelters following the hurricane, highlighting key sectors such as income, health, WASH, and protection services.

Key Data Highlights:

• 48 out of 60 respondents (81%) were not able to return to their house and 11 respondents (19%) were returning home.

• Among those returning home, 7 out of 11 (64%) were moving with family, one respondent was moving with some of their family members and the remaining 3 were moving alone. 

• Out of those 48 respondents unable to return home:

  • 77% intend to stay in their shelters (All persons who intended to stay in the shelters also reported this was because their homes were destroyed)

  • 13% intend to relocate

  • 10% intend to move with family 

This summary includes insights into the vulnerabilities of shelter residents and their movement intentions, providing crucial information as the response phase transitions to early recovery. The data, collected from 15-16 July 2024, involved structured interviews conducted in various government shelters.

Hurricane Beryl made landfall in Grenada and Saint Vincent and the Grenadines on the morning of 1 July 2024, before passing along the southwest of Jamaica between 2 and 3 July 2024. Extreme winds and storm surges in Grenada and St. Vincent and the Grenadines prompted a national level 1 emergency response with collaboration from the Caribbean Disaster Emergency Management Agency (CDEMA). This report provides profiles on shelter and NFI-related needs in assessed locations in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines and Grenada. As this was a rapid assessment, not all shelters could be covered, so these profiles serve as a baseline for displaced persons' locations post-Hurricane Beryl. Given the fluid situation and ongoing relief efforts, this report offers a snapshot of needs at the time of data collection.

Ce tableau de bord présente les principaux résultats de suivi des mouvements de populations dans la province du Tanganyika à l’issue du onzième round d’évaluation conduit par l’unité de la Matrice de Suivi des Déplacements (Displacement Tracking Matrix, en anglais (DTM)) de l’Organisation Internationale pour les Migrations (OIM). Ces évaluations ont été réalisées à travers un exercice de collecte de données conduit du 9 avril au 20 mai 2024, en collaboration avec l’ONG locale, Promotion de Développement Humain et Protection de l’Environnement Social (PDHPES), et la Division Provinciale des Affaires Humanitaires (DIVAH). Lors de ce cycle, un total de 5 027 villages, couvrant 11 zones de santé (ZS), ont été évalués à travers des consultations avec 14 261 informateurs clé.

The east of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), in particular North Kivu province, is in the grip of an increasingly complex and persistent conflict. This conflict is characterized by various armed groups such as the M23/AFC group, the congolese armed forces Forces Armées Congolaises (FARDC) and their respective allies including the Southern African Development Community Mission in the DRC (SAMIDRC), with the use of heavy munitions causing significant damage and loss of life in displacement areas of North and South Kivu.

In Lubero territory, a precarious calm was observed despite brief clashes between the M23 group and the FARDC and their allies on July 14, 2024 in the rural commune of Kirumba in the Kayna health zone. This relative lull is the result of the humanitarian truce announced by the government of the United States of America covering the period from July 5 to July 19, 2024 in the provinces of North and South Kivu, and which was extended by two weeks from July 17, 2024, as announced by the US State Department.

Between July 5 and July 20, 2024, pockets of instability resurfaced with new clashes in the Kirotshe and Mweso health zones in Masisi territory and in the Bukombo health zone in Rutshuru territory. This resumption of hostilities has considerably increased the security and humanitarian challenges in the affected areas and those controlled by the M23 group.

Prolonged displacement, commuting and limited access to humanitarian aid continue to exacerbate the complexity of the crisis and increase the vulnerability of all categories of the affected population.

The city of Goma and areas adjacent to M23-controlled territories in North and South Kivu are home to large numbers of displaced people, and lack the resources to provide them with sufficient support.

Since the start of the crisis, IOM, through the Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM), has continued to conduct a series of rapid assessments, including emergency event tracking (EET/ERM), crisis analysis and registration, with the aim of prioritizing immediate information needs in order to understand displacement dynamics and needs.

This report presents the results of assessments carried out in the various displacement and return areas from July 11 to July 25, 2024. It covers displacements and returns linked to the current M23 crisis.

L’Est de la République démocratique du Congo (RDC), en particulier au Nord-Kivu, est en proie à un conflit de plus en plus complexe et persistant. Ce conflit caractérisé par divers groupes armés tels que le groupe M23/AFC, les Forces Armées Congolaises (FARDC) et leurs alliés respectifs y compris les forces régionales de la communauté d’Afrique australe (SAMIDRC) avec l'utilisation de munitions lourdes causant des dégâts significatifs et des pertes en vies humaines dans les zones de déplacements au Nord et Sud-Kivu.

Dans le territoire de Lubero, un calme précaire a été observé malgré de brefs affrontements entre le groupe M23 et les FARDC et leurs alliés le 14 juillet 2024 dans la commune rurale de Kirumba dans la zone de santé de Kayna. Cette relative accalmie est le résultat de la trêve annoncée par le gouvernement des Etats-Unis d'Amérique couvrant la période du 05 au 19 juillet 2024 dans les provinces du Nord et du Sud-Kivu et qui a été prolongée de deux semaines à partir du 17 juillet 2024, comme annoncé par le Département d'Etat américain.

Entre le 5 et le 20 juillet 2024, des poches d'instabilité ont refait surface avec de nouveaux affrontements dans les zones de santé de Kirotshe et Mweso en territoire de Masisi et dans la zone de santé de Bukombo en territoire de Rutshuru. Cette reprise des hostilités a considérablement augmenté les défis sécuritaires et humanitaires dans les zones affectées et celles contrôlées par le groupe M23. Les déplacements prolongés, les mouvements pendulaires et l'accès limité à l'aide humanitaire continuent d'exacerber la complexité de la crise et d'accroître la vulnérabilité de toutes les catégories de la population affectée.

La ville de Goma et les zones adjacentes aux territoires contrôlés par le M23 dans le Nord et le Sud-Kivu accueillent un grand nombre de personnes déplacées et manquent de ressources pour leur apporter un soutien suffisant.

Depuis le début de la crise, l'OIM, par le biais de la Matrice de suivi des déplacements (DTM), continue de mener une série d'évaluations rapides, y compris le suivi des situations d'urgence (EET/ERM), l'analyse des crises et l'enregistrement, dans le but de répondre en priorité aux besoins d'information immédiats afin de comprendre la dynamique des déplacements et les besoins.

Ce rapport présente les résultats des évaluations menées dans les différentes zones de déplacement et de retour du 11 au 25 juillet 2024. Il couvre les déplacements et les retours liés à la crise actuelle du M23.

This report presents findings from the third round of Mobility Tracking. Mobility Tracking is a DTM methodology that aims to quantify the presence of population categories of interest, reasons for displacement, length of displacement and needs within defined geographical areas and locations, with a frequency that captures mobility dynamics.

This latest round of Emergency Trends Tracking was initiated in April 2024 to monitor displacements movements during the Gu rainy season. Districts covered in this round include Afgooye, Afmadow, Baardheere, Baidoa, Balcad, Belet Weyne, Belet Xaawo, Dayniile, Doolow, Gaalkacyo, Garoowe, Hodan, Jamaame, Jowhar, Kahda, Kismaayo, Luuq. ETT is a crisis-based tool that tracks sudden displacement triggered by specific events or emerging crises.

The objective of ETT is to help prioritize humanitarian response and to enable partners to deliver rapid assistance. Based on previous shock induced displacement patterns, the humanitarian community expects that people will continue to move toward urban areas in search of humanitarian services. Consequently, the ETT coverage focuses on the main urban centers and surrounding villages for each assessed district. The data is collected through Key Informant Interviews (KIIs) at the location level, from Sunday to Wednesday every week. It includes information on new arrivals, numbers and demographic of IDPs, reasons for displacement, intentions, humanitarian assistance and priority needs among others.

The ETT tool also adapts to regional contexts: because of the very high number of IDP sites in Khada and Daynile districts in Banadir region and in Baidoa district in Bay region, a zonal approach has been adopted for these areas. Each week, KIIs are first conducted at the zone level to indicate to the field teams which locations have received the most new arrivals and which need to be assessed.

To facilitate the joint analysis of the CCCM (Camp Coordination and Camp Management) Cluster’s New Arrivals Tracker (NAT) and ETT data, the assistance and needs indicators are identical in both tools.
