An estimated 910,000 people have crossed into Chad since the onset of the crisis in Sudan, of which 213,339 are Chadian returnees as of end July 2023. IOM expects this number to rise to 240,000 through to December 2024. This is due to ongoing conflict and food insecurity in Darfur, owing to the current suspension of the humanitarian corridor between Chad and Darfur.

Environ 910 000 personnes sont estimées avoir traversé la frontière vers le Tchad depuis le début de la crise au Soudan, incluant 213 339 parmi eux qui sont des retournés tchadiens depuis fin juillet. L’OIM s’attend à ce que ce nombre passe à 240 000 d’ici fin décembre 2024, en raison de la reprise du conflit au Darfour.

Costa Rica, like other Central American countries, continues to be a migratory corridor for the flow of people in mobility across the Americas. This flow is mainly composed of people from the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, as well as other countries in South America, Africa, and Asia. According to estimates by IOM Costa Rica, approximately 23,167 people entered the country in July 2024, with a daily average of 747 people. This represents a significant 30% decrease compared to June 2024. Despite this overall decrease in entries, the number of stranded migrants increased. In July, 977 stranded people were identified in monitored public sites (a 4% increase from June) and 861 stranded people in monitored shelters (a 12% decrease from June). This shift highlights the complex dynamics of migration, where reduced inflow doesn't necessarily correlate with fewer stranded individuals.

The migratory movements of Nicaraguan nationals to Costa Rica are a constant trend, intensifying due to political, economic and social factors and representing continuous challenges for both countries in the search for answers in terms of migration policies, which include solutions in employment, education, access to basic services, among others.

 

During July 2024, the Directorate General of Migration (DGME by its Spanish acronym) of Costa Rica registered a total of 49,296 migratory movements (52% entries and 48% exits), which also represented, compared to May, an increase of 18% in entries and 20% in exits. On the other hand, between July 1 and 31, the IOM in Costa Rica registered 17,301 migratory movements at three unofficial border points (51% entries and 49% exits). Additionally, 440 Nicaraguans were surveyed (239 at official border posts and 201 at unofficial border crossings) and data was collected from 492 companions (269 at official border posts and 223 at unofficial border crossings).

 

Understanding the border dynamics of those who transit it is essential in comprehending the needs of the migrant population and formulating proposals for their assistance. In the face of these challenges, it is essential to have updated information on the sociodemographic profile, reasons for migration, needs, and the dynamics of the migratory movements of Nicaraguan people on the northern border of Costa Rica.

Chaque année, pendant la saison des pluies, le Tchad est confronté à des inondations dues à des pluies diluviennes. En 2022, les précipitations ont atteint un niveau sans précédent, entraînant des déplacements de population à une échelle sans précédent. Bien que le niveau actuel des inondations n'atteigne pas encore celui de 2022, un grand nombre de localités ont déjà été touchées par les inondations. La capitale N'Djamena, qui a été l'une des plus touchées par les inondations de 2022, connaît déjà des inondations importantes dans certains quartiers. Sur la base de l'expérience de 2022 et pour une meilleure planification basée sur les données, le gouvernement tchadien ainsi que les partenaires humanitaires ont sollicité l'expertise de l'OIM/DTM pour mener une évaluation rapide des quartiers affectés à N'Djamena.

La région de Maradi, située dans le centre sud du Niger, fait face à une crise humanitaire grave en raison du conflit en cours et des attaques de groupes armés non étatique (GANE). Environ 18 000 personnes originaires de plusieurs localités de la région ont été contraintes de se déplacer pour fuir les menaces. Les déplacés internes, les réfugiés et les communautés d’accueil sont confrontés à des défis majeurs tels que l’accès restreint à l’eau potable, à la nourriture, aux
soins de santé, à l’électricité et à l’éducation. Les organisations humanitaires s’efforcent activement de répondre à ces besoins urgents en fournissant une aide vitale, en soutenant les infrastructures locales et en protégeant les droits des personnes touchées. Cependant, la situation demeure préoccupante et nécessite une attention continue ainsi que des ressources supplémentaires pour atténuer les souffrances et trouver des solutions durables.

Afin de trouver des solutions durables aux déplacements internes et de prévenir de nouveaux déplacements dans la région, il est crucial de comprendre les niveaux de stabilité dans les zones accueillant les populations déplacées. L’Organisation internationale pour les migrations (OIM) a introduit l’indice de solution et de mobilité (ISM) en 2023 pour évaluer la stabilité des zones accueillant les rapatriés ou les populations déplacées dans la région de Maradi. Cet indice vise à identifier les facteurs qui influent sur la stabilité d’un lieu afin de déterminer les interventions prioritaires pour la transition et le rétablissement, renforçant ainsi la résilience et la stabilité dans une région marquée par les conflits et les déplacements.

L’ISM mesure les perceptions de stabilité et analyse les facteurs influençant les décisions des populations de rester ou de se déplacer. Il fournit un outil permettant aux autorités et aux partenaires de développer des stratégies plus efficaces, de prioriser les ressources et de planifier les interventions dans les zones fragiles et instables, en intégrant des approches humanitaires, de relèvement et de stabilisation. Ce rapport présente les résultats du premier cycle de collecte de données de l’ISM, réalisé entre le 18 novembre et le 8 décembre 2023 dans la région de Maradi, au Niger.
