KEY MESSAGES

  • Both quantitative and qualitative findings suggested NFIs as a priority need. Essential NFIs were the second most preferred type of humanitarian assistance (82% of assessed households), and none of the assessed households owned stoves, lamps, blankets/sheets, sleeping mats, cooking utensils, or soap.

  • Shelter was reported as a priority need by the respondents (67% of assessed households). 70% of assessed households lived in emergency shelters that were precariously constructed and covered with tarpaulins that may not endure the upcoming rainy season.
