Activity
- Flow Monitoring
Over the reporting period, a total of 1,175 cross-border movements were observed at the Flow Monitoring Points (FMPs). The average daily number of flows was 56. This represented a 22 per cent increase compared to August, during which 46 individual movements were observed on a daily basis. Malawi (68%), United Republic of Tanzania (32%), Burundi (<1%) and Democratic Republic of the Congo (<1%) were the main countries of departure, while Malawi (70%), United Republic of Tanzania (30%) and Mozambique (<1%) were the main countries of intended destination of individuals passing through the different FMPs. Out of 1,175 individuals observed, 52 per cent were males and 48 per cent were females. There was a number of women who were visibly pregnant. Boys and girls (males and females below 18) made up 24 per cent of the individuals observed. Of the 285 children observed, 31 were children travelling without an adult (14 boys and 17 girls). However, this information is based on direct observation and self-reporting, and therefore is likely under-reported.
