OCHA presented the findings of assessment to
the forum and the final report will be shared by
next week.
The data will be available online, once it is
cleaned and the final report is released by the
Assessment Unit.
Key informants were gathered into focus groups,
so it is likely that there was not equal
representation of all sectors of the community
reflected in the final responses, depending on the
group dynamics. This is a limitation the
assessment team recognizes.
WASH has access to data and they will hold on to
their analysis until the data is cleaned and made
public.
Data collection started Monday, June 1st, with
enumerators expected back within 5 days.
Preliminary joint analysis early next week in
Gorkha hub. Cluster representatives in Gorkha
hub will be invited by email to the joint analysis
session.
People in Need, REACH, MCAP and District
Government are supporting in doing this
assessment.
REACH on behalf of shelter cluster presented the
preliminary findings of PDNA of 8 districts.
Preliminary analysis of 14 districts will be
presented at Shelter cluster meeting. Hardcopies
will be handed out.
