El departamento de Magdalena por muchas décadas ha sido una zona de múltiples afectaciones de índole humanitaria. El municipio Ciénaga particularmente ha sido un territorio receptor de victimas del conflicto armado debido a su cercanía a la Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta donde Grupos Armados No Estatales se resguardan estratégicamente para controlar el paso de tránsito entre varios departamentos donde se producen cultivos ilícitos y los puertos al norte del país por donde salen estos productos. Ciénaga a su vez ha recibido un flujo migratorio de población refugiada y migrante venezolana ya que es un territorio donde los costos de vida son relativamente bajos y queda ubicado cercano a territorios donde la producción agrícola es la principal actividad económica y pueden encontrar empleo. Por otro lado, Ciénaga al estar delimitado en el costado occidental por la Ciénaga Grande y en el norte por el Mar Caribe, el municipio de Ciénaga se encuentra expuesto a los riesgos por variabilidad climática que van de extremo a extremo. Por un lado, las temporadas de lluvias (fenómeno de la Niña) y las épocas de huracanes tropicales en el océano Atlántico ocasionan que anualmente la cabecera municipal presente inundaciones por crecimiento de la Ciénaga Grande y por erosión costera, lo cual deriva en victimas que pierden pertenencias dentro de sus viviendas e inclusive las mismas viviendas si estas están construidas de materiales inadecuados. Por otro lado, las épocas de sequía afectan las zonas rurales de Ciénaga ocasionando la muerte de cultivos y de animales. Una tercera problemática por inundaciones se presenta por las obras fallidas de drenaje y acueducto que ocasionan inundaciones en varios sectores del municipio.

The Whole of Afghanistan Assessment (WoAA) 2024 is a multi-sectoral needs assessment conducted through in-person, household-level interviews across all provinces of Afghanistan. This dataset analyzes households' sectoral and intersectoral needs across various sectors, including health, education, nutrition, WASH, food security, and protection, among others. The results are representative of rural and urban populations , female- and male-headed households , as well as displaced population groups.

The Whole of Afghanistan Assessment (WoAA) 2024 is a multi-sectoral needs assessment conducted through in-person, household-level interviews across all provinces of Afghanistan. This dataset contains the raw data from the assessment, including all interviews conducted, along with the necessary information for the aggregation and analysis of households' sectoral and intersectoral needs across various sectors, such as health, education, nutrition, WASH, food security, and protection, among others. The data is representative of rural and urban populations, female- and male-headed households, as well as displaced population groups.

Humanitarian Situation Monitoring aims to collect and then triangulate information regarding service provision, sectoral needs, and vulnerabilities in Afghan communities, in order to support geographical and sectoral prioritizations within the 2024 humanitarian response in Afghanistan, particularly in light of the rapidly evolving context in Afghanistan

Humanitarian Situation Monitoring aims to collect and then triangulate information regarding service provision, sectoral needs, and vulnerabilities in Afghan communities, in order to support geographical and sectoral prioritizations within the 2024 humanitarian response in Afghanistan, particularly in light of the rapidly evolving context in Afghanistan. HSM also seeks to complement the annual household-level 2023 Whole of Afghanistan Assessment, which assesses/validates the multi-sectoral and sectoral needs of target populations in the Humanitarian Needs and Response Plan (HNRP), by filling in information gaps and enhancing response capacity for district-level prioritization.

The Humanitarian Situation Monitoring (HSM) methodology relies on key informants to gather information about service provision, multi-sectoral needs, demography, and emerging trends. HSM assessment is conducted quarterly using a structured survey tool to monitor needs evolution and prioritise actions accordingly. The estimated population of the settlements where the interviews are conducted in this round represents 54% of the national population. Those settlements cover 21% of known settlements at the national level. The methodology utilizes a sampling approach based on Basic Service Units (BSUs) to ensure effective geographic distribution and comprehensive coverage. BSUs represent communities with similar levels of service access and humanitarian needs. Defined as intermediate economic and geographic units, BSUs are smaller than districts but larger than individual settlements. Each BSU includes shared public spaces, such as markets and roads, as well as essential services like healthcare facilities and schools. The sampling strategy involves the following: - All districts and Basic Service Units are covered. - One key informant is selected and interviewed per assessed settlement. - A minimum of 3 key informants are interviewed per Basic Service Unit. - At least 12% of known settlements in each district are covered. - Additional settlements beyond the minimum of 3 are sampled based on the population factor per Basic Service Unit. It is important to note that any analysis conducted using this methodology will not generate statistically representative results, as the key informant methodology is indicative. For analysis regarding Basic Service Units, please feel free to request.

The Humanitarian Situation Monitoring (HSM) is a quarterly community-level multi-sectoral needs assessment. It builds upon the previously implemented Hard-to-Reach assessment and expanded its geographic coverage to encompass the entire country in early 2022, due to the shift in context. HSM aims to collect and then triangulate information regarding service provision, sectoral needs, and vulnerabilities in Afghan communities regularly, in order to support geographical and sectoral prioritizations, particularly in light of the rapidly evolving context in Afghanistan. This round of HSM also seeks to complement the annual household-level 2023 Whole of Afghanistan Assessment, which assesses the multi-sectoral and sectoral needs of target populations in the Humanitarian Needs and Response Plan (HNRP), by filling in information gaps and enhancing response capacity for district-level prioritization.

Humanitarian Situation Monitoring aims to collect and then triangulate information regarding service provision, sectoral needs, and vulnerabilities in Afghan communities, in order to then support geographical and sectoral prioritizations within the 2022 humanitarian response in Afghanistan, particularly in light of the rapidly evolving context in Afghanistan. The key-informant-based HSM methodology uses settlements as the unit of analysis, using a structured survey tool to interview key informants about the situation in their settlement. A sampling frame covering all 401 districts in Afghanistan was used, covering a minimum of 10% of total settlements in each district. To achieve geographical spread across each district, at least three key informant interviews (KIIs), in a number proportionate to the number of settlements, were conducted in each Basic Service Unit (BSU). To determine a BSU (defined as an economic/geographic service unit which relies on the same services, i.e. healthcare clinics and schools, and common public spaces, i.e. markets and roads), participatory mapping of settlements and services available was conducted prior to data collection. Any analysis conducted using the data in this file will generate statistically non-representative results, as the key informant methodology is indicative

The eighth round of Iraq's Multi-Cluster Needs Assessment (MCNA) conducted by REACH Initiative in close coordination with the Assessment Working Group (AWG), UN OCHA, and the Inter-Cluster Coordination Group (ICCG), seeks to understand multi-sectoral priority needs of conflict-affected populations living across the whole of Iraq. Between July 14 and September 23, 2020, a total of 9,634 in-camp IDP, out of camp IDP, and returnee households were assessed in a total of 61 districts in Iraq (including 40 formal camps).
