Key Messages
• Inadequate sanitation facilities in both host and refugee communities contribute to heightened health risks. In particular, schools in the host community had a high pupil-to-toilet ratio, highlighting the need for improved sanitation infrastructure.
• In the host and refugee community, health facilities’ and schools’ hand-washing facilities were often inadequate, with a lack of soap and water reducing the effectiveness of hand-washing. In addition, there was a notable absence of signs for proper waste disposal and the majority of the staff were not trained on waste disposal protocols, posing further health risks.
• In the host community, sanitation facilities were the most commonly reported priority Water Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) need in HFs and schools, while in the refugee community, water was identified as the primary WASH need for most HFs and schools.
