The Central Sahel area, and in particular the Liptako Gourma region, which borders Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger, is affected by a complex crisis involving growing competition over dwindling resources; climatic variability; demographic pressure; high levels of poverty; disaffection and a lack of livelihood opportunities; communal tensions; the absence of state institutions and basic services; and violence related to organized crime and non-state armed groups. The crisis has triggered significant displacement of populations in the concerned countries and is affecting neighbouring countries such as Mauritania and the coastal countries.

As of February 2024, 3,025,322 individuals have been displaced, including 2,636,880 internally displaced persons (87% of the displaced population) and 388,442 refugees (13% of the displaced population). Sixty-nine per cent of the displaced populations (2,100,469 individuals) were located in Burkina Faso, while 14 per cent resided in Mali (419,534 individuals), 10 per cent in Niger (287,223 individuals) and 4 per cent in Mauritania (114,653 individuals). The crisis’ recent spill over to coastal countries, namely Côte d’Ivoire, Ghana, Togo and Benin, shows growing number of refugees coming from the Central Sahel and populations internally displaced. As of February, 103,443 individuals were affected by displacement within the four countries (9,899 in Benin, 40,093 in Côte d’Ivoire, 7,142 in Ghana and 46,309 in Togo) of which 30,372 were internally displaced.

La région du Sahel central, et plus particulièrement la zone du Liptako Gourma, qui enjambe le Burkina Faso, le Mali et le Niger, est témoin d’une crise complexe qui comprend comme enjeux une compétition grandissante pour le contrôle des ressources; des bouleversements climatiques; une croissance démographique galopante; des niveaux élevés de pauvreté; l’absence d’opportunités économiques; des tensions communautaires; l’absence de présence étatique et le manque de services sociaux de base; ainsi que des violences provoquées par des réseaux de crime organisé et des groupes armés non-étatiques. La crise a engendré des déplacements importants de populations dans les pays concernés et affecte, par ailleurs, des pays voisins tels que la Mauritanie ou les pays côtiers.  

​En février 2024, 3 0251 322 individus sont déplacés, y compris 2 636 880 personnes déplacées internes (87% de la population affectée) et 388 442 réfugiés (13% de la population affectée). Soixante-neuf pour cent des individus (2 100 469 personnes) se situaient au Burkina Faso, 14 pour cent résidaient au Mali (419 534 personnes), 10 pour cent au Niger (287 223 personnes) et 4 pour cent en Mauritanie (114 653 personnes). Le recent déversement de cette crise vers les pays côtiers, à savoir la Côte d’Ivoire, le Ghana, le Togo et le Bénin, fait prevue d’un nombre croissant de réfugiés arrivant du Sahel central vers ces pays et, à l’interne, des populations déplacées. En février, sont recensés 103 443 individus affectés dans ces quatre pays réunis (9 899 au Bénin, 40 093 en Côte d’Ivoire, 7 142 au Ghana et 46 309 au Togo) dont un total de 30 372 déplacés internes.​

  • Return Intention

IOM’s Displacement Tracking Matrix in collaboration with INGD conducted a movement intention survey to 1,062 household hosting 5,010 individuals displaced from Chiure district in Cabo Delgado to Erati district in Nampula province. Conflict and/or fear of attacks due to Non-State Armed Groups (NSAGs) in Cabo Delgado was the main trigger of displacement. 95% were displaced from Ocua posto. 52% of the IDPs are female whilst 48% are males. Children consitutes 55% of the IDPs.

The objective of the assessment was to better understand the conditions of the IDP households in the current place of displacement and their short term intentions. 98% of the displaced households arrived in the current locations between 19 and 24 February 2024. 84% intend to stay in the current location for a period longer than one week.

This information was collected following armed attacks that occurred on 8 and 9 March 2024 in the 5th municipality section Pays Pourri, in the municipality of Ganthier located in the West department. A total of 1,470 persons (400 households) were displaced following these attacks. All of them took refuge with relatives, in host families. It should be noted that in less than 3 months this municipality (and the same municipality section) suffered two armed attacks whereas in the past it had almost never suffered any (see ETT 32.1 for more details on the attack that occurred in December 2023).

  • Flow Monitoring

Since 29 February 2024, several neighborhoods in the Metropolitan Area of Port-au-Prince (MAPAP), the capital of Haiti, have been targeted by increased armed attacks. Nearly 15,000 people were displaced following these attacks (see ETT 39.1). In addition to creating displacement within the MAPAP, these attacks are pushing more and more people to leave the capital to find refuge in provinces, taking the risks of passing through routes controlled by gangs. In order to monitor these movements towards the provinces and inform appropriate response strategies, DTM has launched data collections at several of the most used bus stations in the capital (see page 4 for more details on the methodology). Since the start of this activity, on 8 March, until 10 March, this activity allowed to observe the movements of 7,672 people leaving the MAPAP (see pages 2 and 3 for more details on the profile of these people ). The majority of them (66%) took means of transport heading towards the Grand Sud departments (Grande’Anse, South, Nippes and South-East). It should be noted that this region already hosts more than 116,000 people who had in vast majority, fled the MAPAP in recent months (see the report on displacement in the Grand Sud).

This report aims to provide a holistic view of the forced displacement situation in Haiti. Since August 2022, the Directorate General of Civil Protection (DGPC) and the IOM’s Displacement Monitoring Matrix (DTM) have been carrying out periodic assessments of areas hosting displaced populations. Data is collected through direct observations as well as interviews with key informants. The last exercise of these evaluations (Round 5 – December 2023) indicated that 313,901 people were internally displaced in Haiti (in 7 districts evaluated out of the 10 in the country). This new report indicates the presence of 362,551 internally displaced people, 15% more than in the round 5
