Overview of Assessment Findings
A rapid multi-sectoral assessment including NFI/shelter, Health and WASH was conducted on the 3rd January 2017 to Gura Gharaiban, Tapat Shebak and Darawesh in Bashiqa sub-district. A rapid needs assessment tool was used to conduct this rapid assessment. Information was obtained through direct observation and through key informant interviews. Due to the limited time within each location it was not possible to hold focus groups. General information and security information was collected through a desk assessment prior to the assessment; this information was then verified with the key informants in each location.
Findings and recommendations include the following:
