The purpose of the Emergency Tracking Tool (ETT) is to collect information on large and sudden population movements as well as on security and climate emergencies. This dashboard provides information on movements which occurred during the period from 01 to 30 September 2022, in Lac Province. In September 2022, several security incidents were observed in the province resulting in many displacements. During this month, 2,669 households (10,645 individuals) were displaced. Most of these persons (61%) had previously been displaced before these new displacements. Reasons for displacement were mainly armed attacks (35%), fear of kidnapping or armed attacks (respectively 35 and 28%) and flooding (2%). A vast majority of displacements occurred in same sous-préfectures : 96 per cent of displaced persons took refuge in localities situated in same sous-préfectures as their provenances (see Table 1). The most reported immediate needs were food, shelter and non-food items.
