Burkina Faso counted 1.4 million Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) as of September 2021. IDPs are people who are forced to leave their house but remain within their country's borders. The majority of them are in the Sahel region. Attacks on civilians and security forces by jihadist groups in Burkina Faso have been more frequent, leading an increasing number of people to flee inside the country and across international borders.
