Niger: Flow Monitoring Report #85 ( February 2025)

Attachments

The International Organization for Migration (IOM), through its Flow Monitoring (FM) tool, which is part of the Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM), collects data at key entry, exit, and transit points to better understand population movements across West and Central Africa. Flow Monitoring is an activity aimed at quantifying and qualifying mobility flows and trends, migrant profiles, as well as their experiences and migratory routes.

Since 2016, several flow monitoring points have been progressively established in key locations across Niger to track migratory movements within the country. The data collection period for this report took place from 1 to 28 February 2025 in order to observe migration trends during that month.

The data collection team consisted of twenty-five (25) focal points, including twenty-four (24) men and one (1) woman. Data is collected daily between 7:30 a.m. and 5:30 p.m, which corresponds to the hours when the highest number of travelers transit through the Flow Monitoring Points (FMPs).
