    This dataset is part of the data series [?]: UNHCR - Results Monitoring Survey
    The UNHCR Results Monitoring Survey (RMS) is a household-level survey covering people who are directly or indirectly assisted by UNHCR, including refugees and asylum seekers, internally displaced persons, returnees, stateless and others of concern. Additionally, in the Republic of Korea the survey covered rejected Asylum-Seekers. The objective of the survey is to monitor impact and outcome level indicators on education, healthcare, livelihoods, protection concerns, shelter, and water and sanitation. The results contribute to an evidence base for reporting against UNHCR’s multi-year strategies to key stakeholders. The RMS can be implemented in any operational context. A standard structured questionnaire has been developed for the RMS, which can be conducted as a stand-alone survey or flexibly integrated with other data collection exercises. The questionnaire was adapted to the Korean context and programme objectives by removing, e.g. questions related to camp settings. Questions related to the rejected asylum seekers in need of protection and family members abroad were added. The data includes indicators collected at both the household and individual (household-member) level. The survey covered 424 household amounting to 950 individuals.

    This dataset is part of the data series [?]: UNHCR - WASH KAP Survey
    This dataset contains WASH KAP survey data from interviews conducted in January 2021 in three (03) refugee camps of Djabal, Goz-Amir and Kerfi in Goz Beida in Chad. As part of its core protection mission, the UNHCR provides Refugees, Asylum Seekers, and other persons of concerns (PoC) and adequate shelters in humanitarian emergency settings. The UNHCR and the wider humanitarian community are more in favour of settlement solutions that offer a seemingly normal life to forcible displace population, other than camps, sites, or settlements. In a well-designed camp, displaced people do not have to walk too far to get food, water, or medical care. Water points and latrines are well-lit and close to homes so that girls and women, especially, will not be exposed to danger. All these arrangements are as well done to prevent the spread of hygiene and sanitation-related diseases in camps. To monitor this important situation the UNHCR regularly organizes Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) Knowledge, Aptitude, Practises (KAP) surveys that monitor the WASH indicators.

    The Kablewa camp was created on the 4th June 2015 to accommodate the displaced, returned and refugee Nigerians victims of the Boko Haram crisis in Nigeria. The camp is under the mandate of UNHCR, which provides protection and assistance in terms of access to basic social services, in particular health-nutrition, water supply, hygiene and sanitation, community services, coordination of interventions and safety. The camp population increased from 9,851 persons in June 2016 to 16,301 individuals in November 2016, following the attack of Bosso by Boko Haram which caused the displacement of several households to the Kablewa camp. This situation led to assistance needs, particularly in the Water-Hygiene-Sanitation sector. NGO KARKARA, manager of the Kablewa Camp, in collaboration with UNHCR conducted a survey on Knowledge Attitudes and Practices on Water-Hygiene-Sanitation (179 households were interviewed). The aim was to collect information on services offered to the households and measure the level of improvement or deterioration of their living conditions. The overall result shows that the supply of quality water is assured and the quantity is satisfactory. Sanitation facilities (latrines / showers) and waste management system are available but not used by everyone.

    A Knowledge, Attitudes, and Practices (KAP) survey was conducted in Ajuong Thok and Pamir Refugee Camps in November 2017 to determine the current Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH) conditions as well as hygiene attitude and practices within the households (HHs) surveyed. The assessment utilized a systematic random sampling method, and a total of 559 HHs (379 in Ajuong Thok and 180 in Pamir) were surveyed using mobile data collection (MDC) within a period of ten (10) days. Data was cleaned and analysed in Excel. The findings showed that the overall average number of liters of water per person per day was 19.5 liters in both Ajuong Thok and Pamir Camps, which was slightly lower than the recommended Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) minimum standard of at least 20 liters of water available per person per day. The average HH size was six people. Refugees were aware of the key health and hygiene practices, possibly as a result of routine health and hygiene messages delivered to them by Samaritan´s Purse (SP) and other health partners. It is recommended that proper water use measures be put in place to reduce water waste and that sanitation and hygiene messaging continue to be provided to improve sanitation and hygiene, with access to, and use of, latrines by refugees.

    A Knowledge, Attitudes, and Practices (KAP) survey was conducted in Ajuong Thok and Pamir Refugee Camps in November 2018 to determine the current Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH) conditions as well as hygiene attitudes and practices within the households (HHs) surveyed. The assessment utilized a systematic random sampling method, and a total of 1,040 HHs (520 HHs in each location) were surveyed using mobile data collection (MDC) within a period of 10 days. Data was cleaned and analyzed in Excel. The summary of the results is presented in this report. The findings showed that the overall average number of liters of water per person per day was 21, in both Ajuong Thok and Pamir Camps, which was slightly higher than the recommended Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) minimum standard of at least 20 liters of water available per person per day. This is a slight improvement from the 19.5 liters reported the previous year. The average HH size was six people. Women comprised 83.2% of the surveyed respondents and males 16.8%. Almost all the respondents were refugees, constituting 99.6%. The refugees were aware of the key health and hygiene practices, possibly as a result of routine health and hygiene messages delivered to them by Samaritan´s Purse (SP), Africa Humanitarian Action (AHA) and International Rescue Committee (IRC). Most refugees had knowledge about keeping water containers clean, washing hands during critical times, safe excreta disposal and disease prevention.
