The IGAD Regional Focus of the 2024 Global Report on Food Crises is the result of a collaboration between the Food Security Information Network (FSIN) and the Intergovernmental Authority on Development (IGAD), a regional economic community that forms one of the building blocks of the African Union. It provides a comprehensive assessment of acute food insecurity and malnutrition in the eight IGAD countries as well as trends over time, key drivers and populations of highest concern based on a rigorous methodology. It also presents available data and information on forcibly displaced populations and includes a spotlight on the conflict in Sudan and a focus on pastoralism, deep-diving into important issues for the region.

The Maratane refugee camp was the only official settlement for asylum seekers and refugee in Mozambique since 2003, hosting 6,559 refugees (2,133 households). The majority of refugees were from the Great Lakes Region, namely Democratic Republic of the Congo, Rwanda and Burundi. The previous nutrition survey conducted in October 2010 found a stable level of acute malnutrition, but a high level of both chronic malnutrition amongst children, and anaemia amongst both children and adult women. UNHCR, in partnership with the Ministry of Health and WFP, conducted a nutrition survey in Maratane refugee camp between 22 and 30 September 2012. This data is the anonymous version of the data collected for the 2012 survey. See details on the specific objectives of the survey and survey methods in the report.

Refugees from Sudan started arriving in eastern Chad in 2003 due to the conflict in Darfur. The number of long-term refugees was estimated to be 310,834 people in 2016. The region is mostly desert with few natural resources, in particular land and water. On top of the difficult environment, insecurity has made it a challenge for NGOs and international organizations to provide support to the camps. The refugees in the camps have relied on WFP food assistance since they arrived. In January 2014, the food ration was reduced from the standard 2,100 kcal/day to 800 kcal. As part of nutrition and health monitoring, UNHCR in collaboration with WFP organized a Standardized Expanded Nutrition Survey (SENS) in the camps in order to assess the nutrition and health situation of the refugee populations, and orient and guide decision-making for the following year. The survey took place from 7 December 2016 to 22 January 2017 in the 12 camps hosting refugees from Sudan in the regions of Ouaddai, Wadi Fira, Ennedi East and Sila (situated on the border with Darfur, Sudan). The survey include two modules (children under 5 and women of child-bearing age) and used two-stage cluster sampling. See more details in the report.

In 2015, Mozambique was host to a total of 13,217 refugees. The Maratane refugee camp was the only official settlement for asylum seekers and refugee in Mozambique since 2003, hosting 7,360 refugees (1,784 households). The majority of refugees were from the Great Lakes Region, namely Democratic Republic of the Congo, Rwanda and Burundi. The nutrition study in 2012 found a stable level of acute malnutrition, but persistent high levels of chronic malnutrition amongst children, and anaemia amongst both children and adult women. UNHCR conducted two nutrition surveys in Maratane’s refugee camp between the 25th of April and the 2nd of May 2015, one with a representative sample of the refugee population of the camp and another with the children of refugees who have arrived within the last six months to the camp. This data is the anonymous version of the data collected for the 2015 surveys. See details on the specific objectives of the survey and survey methods in the report.

In December 2013 Botswana's Dukwi refugee camp was host to an estimated 3,104 individuals (1,527 households) from 14 countries, mostly Somalia and Namibia. There was an assortment of languages and cultures co-existing in the camp. In December 2013, UNHCR conducted a nutrition survey in the camp with the overall aim to assess the prevalence of malnutrition and to monitor selected indicators of programme performance. The survey was based on the UNHCR Standardised Expanded Nutrition Survey (SENS) guidelines for refugee populations (v1.3) (see www.sens.unhcr.org) and the Standardized Monitoring and Assessment of Relief and Transitions (SMART) methodology (v1). This data is the anonymous version of the data collected for the 2013 survey. See the details on the specific objectives of the survey and survey methods in the report.

The World Bank and UNHCR in collaboration with the Kenya National Bureau of Statistics and the University of California, Berkeley are conducting the Kenya COVID-19 Rapid Response Phone Survey to track the socioeconomic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, the recovery from it as well as other shocks to provide timely data to inform a targeted response. This dataset contains information from eight waves of the COVID-19 RRPS, which is part of a panel survey that targets refugee household and started in May 2020. The same households were interviewed every two months for five survey rounds, in the first year of data collection, and every four months thereafter, with interviews conducted using Computer Assisted Telephone Interviewing (CATI) techniques. The sample aims to be representative of the refugee and stateless population in Kenya. It comprises five strata: Kakuma refugee camp, Kalobeyei settlement, Dadaab refugee camp, urban refugees, and Shona stateless. Waves 1-7 of this survey include information on household background, service access, employment, food security, income loss, transfers, health, and COVID-19 knowledge. Wave 8 focused on how households were exposed to shocks, in particular adverse weather shocks and the increase in the price of food and fuel, but also included parts of the previous modules on household background, service access, employment, food security, income loss, and subjective wellbeing. The data is uploaded in three files. The first is the hh file, which contains household level information. The 'hhid', uniquely identifies all household. The second is the adult level file, which contains data at the level of adult household members. Each adult in a household is uniquely identified by the 'adult_id'. The third file is the child level file, available only for waves 3-7, which contains information for every child in the household. Each child in a household is uniquely identified by the 'child_id'. The duration of data collection and sample size for each completed wave was: Wave 1: May 14 to July 7, 2020; 1,328 refugee households Wave 2: July 16 to September 18, 2020; 1,699 refugee households Wave 3: September 28 to December 2, 2020; 1,487 refugee households Wave 4: January 15 to March 25, 2021; 1,376 refugee households Wave 5: March 29 to June 13, 2021; 1,562 refugee households Wave 6: July 14 to November 3, 2021; 1,407 refugee households Wave 7: November 15, 2021, to March 31, 2022; 1,281 refugee households Wave 8: May 31 to July 8, 2022: 1,355 refugee households The same questionnaire is also administered to nationals in Kenya, with the data available in the WB microdata library: https://microdata.worldbank.org/index.php/catalog/3774

In 2016, UNHCR became aware of a group of stateless persons living in or near Nairobi, Kenya. Most of them were Shona, descendants of missionaries who arrived from Zimbabwe and Zambia in the 1960s and remained in Kenya. The total number of Shona living in Kenya is estimated to be between 3,000 and 3,500 people. On their first arrival, the Shona were issued certificates of registration, but a change in the Registration of Persons Act of 1978 did not make provision for people of non-Kenyan descent, consequently denying the Shona citizenship. Zimbabwe and Zambia did not consider them nationals either, rendering them stateless. Besides the Shona, there are other groups of stateless persons of different origins and ethnicities, with the total number of stateless persons in Kenya estimated at 18,500. UNHCR and the Government of Kenya are taking steps to address statelessness in the country, among them is the registration of selected groups for nationalization. In April 2019, the Government of Kenya pledged to recognize qualifying members of the Shona community as Kenyan citizens. However, the lack of detailed information on the stateless population in Kenya hinders advocacy for the regularization of their nationality status. Together with the Kenyan Government through the Department of Immigration Services (DIS) and the Kenya National Bureau of Statistics (KNBS), UNHCR Kenya conducted registration and socioeconomic survey for the Shona community from May to July 2019. While the primary objective of the registration was to document migration, residence and family history with the aim of preparing their registration as citizens, this survey was conducted to provide a baseline on the socio-economic situation of the stateless Shona population for comparison with non-stateless populations of Kenya.
