Data Grid Completeness defines
a set of core data that are essential for preparedness and emergency response.
For select countries, the HDX Team and trusted partners evaluate datasets available on HDX and add those meeting the definition of a core data category to the Data Grid Completeness board above. Please help us improve this feature by sending your feedback to

Idleb governorate and the surrounding opposition-held areas of western Aleppo and north-western Hama governorates* host one of the largest IDP populations in Syria. Since late 2017, following an escalation of violence in north-western and southern Syria, the region has witnessed the further arrival of a substantial number of IDPs. Large cross-line displacements from Eastern Ghouta, northern Homs and southern Hama, as well as Da'ra and Quneitra governorates, beginning in March 2018, have led to a significant increase of the IDP population in the region and to a growing strain on resources and services in the region. While humanitarian assistance is reaching both IDP and resident populations, major gaps remain. In order to address such gaps, REACH has conducted a needs assessment to inform humanitarian actors of IDP and resident populations' priority needs and to address critical information gaps on the humanitarian conditions of IDPs and residents living in communities in the region. This data set provides the findings from this assessment.
Findings presented in this data set are based on data collected by REACH as part of a needs assessment focused on IDP and resident populations living in communities of Idleb governorate and surrounding areas. Data was collected in 362 communities across 30 sub-districts between 12 and 20 August 2018. Data was collected at the community level, with enumerators interviewing between 2 and 7 key informants (KIs) per community and with KIs selected based on their knowledge of IDP and resident populations in the community and sector-specific expertise. Communities were assessed based on available data on total populations, focusing on those reported to have large IDP and resident populations and those that have received a high number of IDP arrivals in the two months prior to the start of data collection. Collected primary data was further triangulated through available secondary sources.
Population numbers and demographic indicators from the 2004 census disaggregated by administrative levels 1, 2, 3, and 4. Pcodes (unique identifiers) for each geographic unit are included. Primary language is English, includes geographic names in Arabic. There are 892 admin level 4 places that do not have Pcodes, and 769 locations that need translation to English, work to improve this dataset is on-going.

The CBR–TWG, together with REACH, selected basic commodities to monitor based on what is typically available, sold and used by an average Syrian household. Some of those items are components of a Survival Minimum Expenditure Basket (SMEB), created by the CBR–TWG and updated in February 2017, which outlines the minimum culturally-adjusted items that an average six-person household in Syria needs to purchase in one month. To monitor price and stock fluctuations of those commodities, REACH and its NGO partners selected major markets, all with similar features, across 10 governorates of Syria. In each of these markets, enumerators identified retailers whose prices and stock levels they can monitor every month.
The health and survival of women and their new-born babies in low income countries is a key public health priority, but basic and consistent subnational data on the number of live births to support decision making has been lacking. WorldPop integrates small area data on the distribution of women of childbearing age and age-specific fertility rates to map the estimated distributions of births for each 1x1km grid square across all low and middle income countries. Further details on the methods can be found in Tatem et al. and James et al..

The health and survival of women and their new-born babies in low income countries is a key public health priority, but basic and consistent subnational data on the number of pregnancies to support decision making has been lacking. WorldPop integrates small area data on the distribution of women of childbearing age, age-specific fertility rates, still births and abortions to map the estimated distributions of pregnancies for each 1x1km grid square across all low and middle income countries.
