Objective: The aim of this article is to analyse compliance with barrier measures in the fight against the Covid 19 pandemic in a context where internally displaced school-age children under the weight of forced displacement as a result of conflict crises (Boko Haram) and natural disasters are also forced to comply with barrier measures linked to the fight against the Covid 19 or Zamai Coronavirus pandemic. Method: Qualitative data was collected using standard anthropological data collection techniques, including in-depth individual interviews and focus group discussions (FGDs). An interview guide and a discussion guide corresponding to each of the targets were used to collect qualitative data. Direct observation was used to collect data on the environment of the informants, their behaviour and attitudes, their level of knowledge about the education of displaced school-age children and Covid 19. Discussion: Impoverishment refers to the loss of natural capital, man-made material capital, human capital and social capital. Nine risks or processes are at the root of the impoverishment of displaced persons: not having land, not having a job, not having a house, marginalisation, food insecurity, increased morbidity and mortality, loss of access to public goods and services, fraying of the social fabric and loss of educational opportunities. Conclusion: In various towns in the Far North Region, in this case Zamai, concentration camps have been set up to house IDPs. Initially intended as short-stay camps, most of them are confined there, sometimes for long periods, in generally difficult living conditions.
