    UNHCR Peru undertakes flow monitoring surveys of refugees and migrants to analyze their movement dynamics at the borders and at transit locations, their protection needs and vulnerabilities. For the most part, families in transit are walking or asking for hitchhiking to cross the borders using irregular routes, which increases protection risks along the way. The data is collected with the purpose of designing responses to mitigate protection risks. The information in this dataset was collected during the first half of 2023 at Tacna. The results are not statistically representative and should be considered as a general indicator of the trends.

    This dataset is part of the data series [?]: UNHCR - Post-Distribution Monitoring of Cash-Based Intervention
    UNHCR uses Post-Distribution Monitoring (PDM) as a mechanism to collect refugees' feedback on the quality, sufficiency, utilization and effectiveness of the assistance items they receive. The underlying principle behind the process is linked to accountability, as well as a commitment to improve the quality and relevance of support provided. UNHCR increasingly uses Cash-Based Interventions (CBIs) as a preferred modality for delivering assistance, offering greater dignity and choice to forcibly displaced and stateless persons in line with UNHCR's core protection mandate. In order to ensure that the cash assistance provided meets the intended programme objectives and that desired outcomes are achieved, UNHCR conducts regular post-distribution and outcome monitoring with a sample of refugee recipients. UNHCR supported 88 refugee households in 13 provinces in China with cash assistance in 2022. The CBI PDM was conducted in October and November 2022 to assess outcomes of the assistance.Data was collected via a self administered email survey. Almost half the households receiving cash assistance are individuals without family. UNHCR’s cash assistance is beneficial to its recipients as respondents point to improved living conditions (91%), relieved financial burdens (91%) and reduction in feeling of stress (91%). In terms of coping strategies, 56% of all beneficiaries had to take out a new loan over the last three months.

    In order to provide an overview of the humanitarian situation of refugees from Ukraine and host communities in the Slovak Republic, UNHCR in partnership with REACH Impact Initiatives conducted an area based assessment in the cities of Bratislava, Kosice, Nitra and Zilina in between October and December 2022. The objective of the assessment was to complement the multi-sector needs assessment conducted in August 2022 (https://microdata.unhcr.org/index.php/catalog/778) and to better inform an area-based response by the local authorities and humanitarian actors. The specific focus of the assessment was to identify priority needs of the refugee population in terms of access to basic services, social cohesion between refugees as well as host population, and local refugee response mechanisms. The assessment used a mixed-methods approach, including data from secondary sources as well as primary qualitative and quantitative data. For the primary quantitative component, a set of structured household questionnaires were used: one for refugees and one for host households. The four geographic areas were decided as they were hosting the largest number of refugees at the time of the assessment. Temporary protection data was used to get an estimate of the refugees in the four cities assessed. Purposive sampling was used, therefor the results can only be considered as indicative and are not representative of the whole population of interest. See further details on the methodology in the report. This data is an anonymous version of the original data collected and used for the primary analysis.

    The UNHCR Results Monitoring Surveys (RMS) is a household-level survey on people with and for whom UNHCR works or who benefit from direct or indirect assistance provided by UNHCR, including refugees and asylum seekers, internally displaced persons, returnees, stateless and others of concern. 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 data includes indicators collected at both the household and individual (household-member) level, and results are statistically representative. This RMS took place in Burkina Faso from June 2022 to August 2022. The surveyed population was IDPs, refugees and asylum seekers in Burkina Faso. The sample frame for IDPS was taken from the “Conseil National de Secours d'Urgence et de Réhabilitation (CONASUR)” in December 2021 and for RAS (Refugees and Asylum-seekers), the sample was taken from UNHCR's registration database (ProGresv4). Both CAPI and CATI were used for data collection. Observations :667 (RAS) , 6 (Refugee returnees), 704 (IDPs) The latest submission date: 28 August 2022

    UNHCR-WFP joint assessment mission (JAM) of Nigerian refugees in the Far North of Cameroon carried out between October 7 and 19, 2021. The objective of the assessment was to collect updated information on basic needs, shelter, food security, nutrition, water and sanitation, education, protection, security, common services, and livelihoods of Nigerian refugees to inform improved humanitarian assistance. This dataset contains data collected from samples of 607 out of approximately 10,000 households hosting 60,000 refugees in the Minawao settlement and 435 from close to 11,000 households hosting 57,000 refugees in host villages in surrounding border areas. The majority of the Nigerian Refugees in this Region fled violence and attacks perpetrated by Non-State Armed Groups (NSAGs) such as Boko-Haram in the Neighboring Nigeria since 2014. The report published in September 2022 reveals interesting findings such as the difference in dependency ratios between the refugees in camps and those living in the host population. Additionally, comparative analysis on indicators such as the Food Consumption Score (FCS) and the reduced Coping Strategy Index (rCSI) between the two (02) groups are conducted and yield some interesting findings.

    To ensure the centrality of refugees’ voices in discussions about their future, as well as to inform evidence-based inter-agency responses in support of host Governments, UNHCR is leading the regular implementation of intentions surveys with refugees from Ukraine, collecting primary data on their profiles, their current situation and intentions, and the factors influencing their decision-making. The first regional intentions survey was completed and the report published in July 2022 (https://data.unhcr.org/en/documents/details/94176). This data was collected during the second round, conducted between August and September 2022. The scope was expanded to include not only countries neighbouring Ukraine but other host countries in Europe and beyond. In addition, the second round also includes a deeper analysis of the factors influencing refugees’ decisions, as well as key insights into their current socio-economic situation. The report was published in September 2022 (https://data.unhcr.org/en/documents/details/95767). A mixed methodological approach was used, combining different sampling approaches and data collection modes. Over 4,800 refugee households (2,000 from countries neighboring Ukraine and 2,800 from other host countries) were interviewed either through a phone-based survey, web-based survey or face-to-face interview. All surveys used a harmonized questionnaire. This data is an anonymous version of the original data collected and used for the primary analysis.
