Western Africa

 

DescriptionAround 24.3 million internal displacements were recorded in Western Africa between 2009 and 2023. Conflict and violence accounted for 11.6 million, most of which were associated with Boko Haram in north-eastern Nigeria. Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger in the Central Sahel also recorded significant figures. Burkina Faso has been one of the continent’s fastest growing internal  displacement situations since conflict escalated there in 2018.
