Assessment Report

This report constitutes a complementary analysis to the quantitative reports already published by DTM as part of the fourth phase of site and neighborhood assessments in the MAPAP: Information sheet on the displacement situation in the West Department, Detailed mapping of the displacement situation in the MAPAP.

The quantitative results from Round 4 have demonstrated a trend of IDPs leaving host families to settle in sites. While the total number of IDPs in the MAPAP has not significantly increased since the end of 2022 (see Map 1 and Graph 1 below), their places of accommodation have varied significantly (Graph 2). By the end of 2022, only 25 percent of IDPs were settled in sites, whereas by June 2023, this percentage had risen to 45 percent, with nearly half of the IDPs now settled in sites (Graph 2). Given that the number of IDPs has not increased significantly, these results indicate that the same IDPs previously hosted by families are moving to settle in sites where living conditions are extremely precarious, and people are exposed to higher protection risks.

This report aims to deepen the understanding of this trend through testimonies from IDPs obtained through open interviews.

Ovaj izvještaj pruža uvid u profile, iskustva, potrebe, rute putovanja i namjere migranata u tranzitu kroz Bosnu i Hercegovinu (BiH).11 Podaci su prikupljeni od 22. augusta do 1. septembra 2023. IOM je proveo vježbu praćenja ruta u Republici Srpskoj, Posavskom kantonu, Kantonu Sarajevo, Tuzlanskom kantonu, Bosansko podrinjskom kantonu i Unsko-sanskom kantonu kako bi pratio trendove ulazaka i izlazaka, kao i modalitete tranzita unutar BiH. IOM je također anketirao 411 migranata na aktivnim tranzitnim lokacijama kao što su autobuske stanice, odnosno na ključnim ulaznim i izlaznim lokacijama širom zemlje, kao i u tri tranzitna prihvatna centra u BiH (Lipa, Borići i Blažuj).

This report provides insights into the profiles, experiences, needs, routes travelled and intentions of migrants transiting through Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH).1 Data was collected from 22 August to 1 September 2023.

IOM carried out a route observation exercise in the Republika Srpska, Sarajevo Canton, Posavina Canton, Tuzla Canton, Bosnian-Podrinje Canton and Una Sana Canton to monitor trends in entries and exits as well as transit modalities within BiH. IOM also surveyed 411 migrants in active transit locations such as bus stops or at key entry and exit locations throughout the country as well as in three transit reception centres in BiH (Lipa, Borići and Blažuj).

This report presents a summary of the analysis of energy-related data based on the Mobility Tracking Round 11 of the DTM Multi-Sectoral Location Assessment (MLSA) in South Sudan. The assessment had the novelty of including energy access-related questions, following the structure of the newly introduced DTM Energy Module.

This report provides an overview of the situation and the main needs of the displaced population and the host community in Derna and surrounding areas.

HIGHLIGHTS

• Based on field reports some roads in the affected areas are being reopened although movement between the eastern and western parts of the city continues to be heavily restricted.
• Approximately 1,300 individuals (260 families) remain in their homes in the affected areas of Alajabilh, Abu Mansour, and Maghar, out of fear of being victims of theft due to the lack of electricity in these areas. They are in urgent need of food and non-food items as well as medical assistance. They have not received any aid.
• Throughout Derna, field teams also report severe shortages of medications including those for chronic diseases, as well as a lack of storage and pharmacists.
• Specific needs were identified for individuals with restricted mobility, women, children, infants, adults and elderly.
• Seven collective accommodations were hosting displaced individuals, mostly in schools and hotels. They lacked adequate services and items such as sanitation, security, medication, diapers, baby food, etc.

This summary presents initial findings from Round 14 of Mobility Tracking conducted across South Sudan through key-informant assessments at location-level in April 2023. Mobility Tracking estimates the presence of internally displaced persons (IDPs) and returnees in South Sudan in displacement sites and host communities. IOM DTM mapped a total of 2,027,331 IDPs, of whom 8% were previously abroad, and 2,335,604 returnees, that includes 27% returnees from abroad in 3,916 locations across the 10 States in South Sudan.
