In Gaalckacyo, Mudug region, severe drought conditions have become the primary reason for migration into urban and peri-urban areas. Localised clan-related insecurity continues in Gaalckacyo, however, FSNAU reports indicate that alongside severe drought conditions, there has been a decrease in major inter-clan incidents (FSNAU, 29 May 2017). While IDP communities considered drought, insecurity, and evictions as contributing factors to displacement, 70% of the IDP communities assessed considered drought as the primary facto leading to their displacement. Over half of all IDP sites are under six months old, and 95% of sites are planned IDP sites. The Emergency Tracking Tool (ETT) recorded 204,000 IDPs (rounded estimates) 115 IDP sites between 3 and 10 June 2017.
