As of December 31, 2017, the Democratic Republic of Congo had the largest displaced population in Africa with more than 4.49 million

internally displaced persons, including 2.7 million children. Since January 2017,

every hour of every day, nearly 50 Congolese families have been forced to flee their homes. With respect to absolute numbers of IDPs, the province of North Kivu has been the most affected with nearly 27 families of IDPs per hour per day in 2017, followed by Tanganyika (23) and South Kivu (12). The rate of displacement has increased significantly with more than 2 million displaced in 2017 alone, a doubling of the total number of IDPs from 2016. Last quarter, almost 16,000 IDPs were registered (mainly in the Tanganiyka province) and some 27,000 returned home. The Kasai region has had the largest population of returnees (605,000) in the last 18 months.

affected province by internal displacement with more than

Kalemie town and in Nyunzu Territory, which resulted in a decrease of the number IDPs of 100,000. 60% of forced displacements in the province took place in 2017, about an average of more than 1,000 IDPs per day caused by intercommunity conflicts. In December, about 16,000 people returned to their places of origin, a similar estimated number of IDPs were recorded that same month.

IDPsforcibly displaced inthe affected areas

As of December 2017, the number of IDPs in Bas-Uele, Haut-Uele, Ituri and Tshopo

increased by 97,000. This increase can be explained by the recent assessments conducted in August, October and November 2017. By the end on 2017, the total number of IDPs reached 484,000. In 2017, around 54 families displaced per day were hosted mainly in the Bafwasende and Irumu territories.

increased by 13,000, an increase explained by the results of the latest assess-ments in November 2017 in the territory of Pweto. At the end of 2017, the Malemba Nkulu - Pweto - Mitwaba triangle was home to more than 276,000 displaced people, representing 85% of the 322,000 IDPs in these three provinces.

violence between the army and armed groups has intensified since June 2017. The region is also suffering from the deteriorating situation in the neighboring provinces of South Kivu and Tanganyika. However, a relative lull was observed during the month of December 2017 in the Territory of Kabam-bare after the retaking of some localities by the regular army, which allowed 11,000 people to return to their homes.

More than 25% of all IDPs of the entire DRC are hosted in North Kivu. At the end of December 2017, 1,150,000

displaced were recorded, of which 523,105 were newly displaced in 2017. 70% of them are hosted in the territories of Lubero, Rutshuru and Masisi. 95% find shelter in host communities and a 5% in IDP camps. Nearly 125,000 people returned to their place of origin in 2017, mainly from the territories of Rutshuru, Beni and Lubero. The high number of displacement can be attribut-ed to an increase of fighting between armed groups and the military operations against those groups.

South Kivu, where the security situation deteriorated sharply during the second half of the

year, recorded twice as many internally displaced persons in 2017

as in 2016. In total, there are 647,000 IDPs in the region, making it the second most affected by population movements. The increase is striking in the Territory of Fizi, where clashes have multiplied and spread to new areas since June 2017. While there were 49,000 displaced in late 2016, this number has risen to 188,000, making the second most affected territory, after that of Kalehe (226,000 displaced).
