  • Internal Displacement Updates
    ANNEXE 1 CONFLICT INDUCED INTERNAL DISPLACEMENT Monthly Update January 2012 The trend on increasing conflict-induced internal displacement continued through January 2012 with the displacement of an estimated 6,594 persons (1,104 families) across the country. As compared to December 2011, this is a decrease of 50%. The data shows an increase in reporting of IDPs in the West which is a significant high (82%), while the Eastern region remained the same as last month. No significant displacements were reported from the South-east. No internal displacement was reported from the South, North and Central regions in January. The main causes of displacement are recorded as armed conflict between Anti Government Elements AGE/ Armed Opposition Groups AOG, IM/ANA; Intimidation/ threats/ harassment by AGEs; Tribal conflict and targeted persecution. The total IDP population in the country is estimated at 447,524 persons/ 70,209 families as of 31 January 2012. The data is gathered from UNHCR and DoRR sources and these estimates do not include IDPs scattered in urban and semi-urban areas as well as locations where UNHCR/ DORR/ IDP Task Force members do not have access. I. Key Protection and Assistance Needs: • Delay in identification, assessment and timely assistance (due to limited humanitarian access) remains a critical challenge; • Access to basic protection in displacement – i.e personal and physical security and shelter are critical needs; • Regular tracking of IDP caseloads is a challenge due to frequent secondary and tertiary displacements; • Livelihoods in displacement (esp for prolonged displacements) is a challenge and its absence can lead to secondary displacement; • Access to education and emergency health care (for all & also for prolonged displacement - including other services); • Tracking the vulnerability of already vulnerable persons/ families (migration of male members to urban areas for work, hence more female headed households).

  • IOM in Herat, Western Afghanistan, Facts & Figures
    IOM in Herat, Western Afghanistan Facts & Figures 22 April 2002 Returns – The IOM office in Herat is helping internally displaced persons (IDPs) to return home from camps on a daily basis. At the same time IOM staff have been deployed to the border to assist Afghan refugees return- ing from Iran. Currently, the IOM Office in Herat is assisting between 4,000 and 5,000 IDPs and returnees per day to return home from camps and from the Islam Qala border cross- ing. IOM Herat is currently employing 285 local staff and using a fleet of some 700 hired vehicles. IOM Western Afghanistan Chief Rafael Robillard describes the complexities of the ongoing operation. “Managing these two large migration programmes simul- taneously remains a challenge. With the number of per- sons assisted on a daily basis, between four to five thou- sand, we’ve had to hire some 700 trucks to make sure people can return safely to their homes before the planting season ends.” The returnees are provided with overnight accommodation in transit centres. These centres provide shelter, security, water and food for the returnees. Travel to some of the most distant locations can take up to five days. Returns are currently taking place from Maslakh, Shaidayee and Rawzabagh IDP camps and from the former Central PolyClinic in the centre of Herat. As of 21 April, IOM Herat has assisted 29,655 persons (8,210 families) to return to their home districts of Ab Kamari, Moqor, Qadis, Qale Naw, Dara-e-Boom, Morghab, Ghormach, Jawand, Gulran, Kushk, Kusan, Karukh, Obe and Kabul.
