Site Assessment

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

In the Metropolitan Area of Port-au-Prince, 61% of IDPs reside in spontaneous sites, exposed to several protection, health and other risks. This report presents an overview of the displacement situation in these sites.

From June to October 2022, storms and heavy monsoon rains in Pakistan caused widespread flooding and landslides across the country. As of 18 November 2022, according to the National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA), up to 33 million people have been affected by the floods and a total of 90 districts have been labelled by the Government of Pakistan as ‘calamity-hit’.

In August 2023, IOM implemented a fourth round of the CNI to provide partners with timely information on the displacement situation, the multisectoral needs of the affected population as well as the recovery needs at the settlement level.7 For this round, IOM implemented the CNI in nine districts of Balochistan. The CNI was conducted in 3,257 flood-affected settlements or settlements that hosted temporary displaced persons (TDPs) across the nine targeted districts.8

The CNI was conducted in 3,107 flood-affected settlements or settlements that hosted temporary displaced persons (TDPs) across the 10 targeted districts.7

This factsheet aims to provide a snapshot of multi-sectoral conditions, needs, and challenges among Myanmar migrants in Chumphon province as captured between December 2023 and February 2024 by IOM Thailand’s multi-sectoral assessment of needs. The purpose of this assessment is to provide insights regarding the severity of needs among migrant populations, identify vulnerable population groups and geographic areas with the most acute needs, inform assistance planning and relevant Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) targets, and provide sectoral and inter-sectoral baselines for future assessments.

This factsheet aims to provide a snapshot of multi-sectoral conditions, needs, and challenges among Myanmar migrants in Chiang Rai province as captured between December 2023 and February 2024 by IOM Thailand’s multi-sectoral assessment of needs.

Between August and September 2023, the International Organization for Migration (IOM) Data and Research Unit (DRU), through its Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) methodology, deployed the Site Assessment (SA) and Village Assessment Survey (VAS) tools to assess the mobility, needs and vulnerabilities of Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) and returning IDPs across Ethiopia. This snapshot report will present key findings on needs and vulnerabilities, in particular those related to Cash and Voucher (CVA) assistance.

It is recommended to utilize cash and mixed modality (cash + in-kind) responses for these population groups if feasible. The finding that 80.5% of sites and 75.7% of villages mentioned a preference towards cash, whether by itself or mixed with in-kind/baskets, aligns with Ethiopia Cash Working Group (CWG) recommendations based on joint CVA feasibility assessments.

This snapshot report will present key findings on needs and vulnerabilities, and will focus on Shelter and Non-Food Items (NFIs) in the locations assessed through the SA and VAS survey tools.

According to data collected, living conditions of IDPs in the assessed sites continue to be inadequate and unsafe. In 42.10% of assessed sites, no HHs were living in individual HH shelters. Furthermore, in 60.77% of sites there was no lighting in communal spaces and in 36.08% there was lighting but it was not adequate.
