  • Flow Monitoring

IOM’s Displacement Tracking Matrix conducted 22,837 interviews representing 63,065 individual movements into and out of Bentiu Protection of Civilian (PoC) site, Malakal PoC site, Wau PoC Adjacent Area (AA) and Wau collective centres (Cathedral, Nazareth, St. Joseph, Lokoloko and Masna combined in analysis) during the first  quarter of 2020.

  • Both Bentiu and Malakal PoC sites saw a considerable proportion of overnight travel dedicated to return related activities
  • Wau PoC AA has seen a larger proportion of permanent exits amongst interviewees than in previous months. 
  • Movements away from Wau PoC AA seemed more often permanent and confident than movements away from Bentiu PoC site which were more commonly not intended to be permanent. 
  • Travel to and from Sudan was especially common for Malakal PoC site in the first quarter of 2020 as 22 per cent of overnight travel included departure points / destinations in Sudan, especially Khartoum, Kosti and Um Durman. Destinations and departure maps: p. 6-8
