About South Sudan

Conflict and instability in South Sudan have resulted in large-scale internal and cross-border displacement since the December 2013 crisis of over 4 million individuals. In September 2018, the Revitalized Agreement for the Resolution of the Conflict in South Sudan (R-ARCSS) was signed between the major warring parties. Whilst overall there have been improvements in security since and returns are ongoing, fighting and communal clashes (frequently linked to cattle raiding) continue to trigger new displacements and the situation remains volatile.

DTM South Sudan’s toolbox is designed to meet critical information gaps during all phases of response, from preparedness, to intervention and transition/recovery. DTM South Sudan provides country-wide figures on the numbers, locations and priority needs of IDPs and returnees updated on a quarterly and ad-hoc basis. The programme undertakes biometric registration in selected parts of the country to support partners with reaching intended beneficiaries during distributions. Flow monitoring data is collected on a daily basis at displacement sites, key transit hubs and border crossing points to identify mobility dynamics of migrants including IPDs and returnees. Through ad hoc surveys, headcounts, infrastructure/service mapping exercises and other assessments, DTM provides additional information to support partners in planning their response.

Mobility Impact due to COVID-19 in South Sudan

The content presented on this portal is for informative purposes only. All information is being constantly validated including geo-location and attributes. As the situation is changing rapidly, we aren’t able to ensure up to date accuracy of some of the information, while it is correct to the best of our knowledge at the time of uploading. The scale of the data operation also doesn’t enable us yet to ensure that there aren’t some errors. The timeliness of these updates depends on the timeframe within which the information becomes available and is processed by IOM. We encourage anybody with more accurate/updated information to contact DTM Covid-19 Coordination Team at: dtmcovid19@iom.int. For more check the Terms & Conditions Sections.

The current outbreak of COVID-19 has affected global mobility in the form of various travel disruptions, restrictions and blockages. To better understand how COVID-19 affects global mobility, the International Organization for Migration (IOM) has been working to map the impacts on human mobility, at Global, Regional and Country level. Subsequently, the IOM have initiated the following activities:

COVID-19 Travel Restriction Monitoring - Using secondary data sources, such as the International Air Transport Association (IATA), media reports and information direct from IOM missions, this platform maps and analyzes the various country, territories and areas imposing restrictions, and those with restrictions being imposed upon them, all categorized by restriction type. All analyses is presented at country level.

COVID-19 Country Points of Entry (PoE) Status Baseline Assessment – Using direct input from IOM missions, this dashboard displays daily updated mobility restrictions at location level (airport, land border points, blue border points, internal transit points). For each point of entry, data is collected on: type of restriction, measured applied & timeframe, population category that might be affected from the measures. This data is displayed in the Point of Entry layers on this map.
