NOTES: |
(1) This chart is intended to include major population
groups in Africa (i.e. over 100,000 people affected from country of
origin). |
|
|
(2) Boxes on the diagonal (shaded) show internally
displaced populations and returnees (total = 9,328,000). |
|
|
(3) Numbers referred to in the text are usually by the
country where the population is located (i.e. column totals). |
|
|
For the regional situations of Burundi/Rwanda and
Liberia/Sierra Leone the description is by country of origin (i.e. row
totals). |
