NEEDS ANALYSIS
• Shortage of Medicines, especially for chronic diseases, and human resources in public health facilities due to ongoing financial constraints.
• Lack of awareness on available health services within governmental health facilities for non-camp refugees.
• Control of communicable diseases is a key priority to prevent disease outbreaks among refugees.
• Access to mental health and psychosocial support services remains limited for refugees living out of camps, and need to be further expanded.
