HIGHLIGHTS
DTM’s Flow Monitoring Registry (FMR) conducts surveys on individuals in transit at strategic points within South Sudan (SSD) and its borders. The FMR provides valuable insights into mobility patterns, migration drivers, and traveler demographics. This information is used by humanitarian organizations, development partners, and the government to strengthen their programs. Additionally, the FMR complements DTM’s monitoring efforts during natural disasters.
As of December 2024, 18 Flow Monitoring Points (FMPs) were operational, monitoring internal movements and cross-border flows with neighboring countries, including Uganda (UGA), the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Sudan (SDN), Ethiopia (ETH), Kenya (KEN), and the Central African Republic (CAR). The figures reflect trends observed among respondents at the active FMPs only, as DTM’s coverage does not capture all cross-border or internal flows. Participation in the survey is voluntary and anonymous, with groups of individuals traveling together often surveyed collectively, typically representing a household.
