    Series Information

    UNHCR conducts socio-economic assessments of persons-of-concern (i.e. refugees, asylum-seekers, IDPs, etc.) in a variety of countries in order to inform and improve its programming with the goal of promoting self-reliance. While these assessments are not fully standardized and are tailored to their specific country context, the quantitative surveys share strong similarities in their design and objectives, and are therefore considered a survey series for the purpose of microdata documentation/archiving.

    Abstract

    In 2014/2015, WFP and UNHCR, the Government's main partners in providing assistance to refugees, conducted a "socio-economic categorization" in select refugee camps in Chad. This dataset covers a total of 12,643 households in the Gozamir and Belom refugee camps.

    Sampling

    Sampling Procedure

    The survey's objective was to deliver representative data of all refugees living in Chad's Gozamir and Belom refugee camps. The total population of refugees in these camps at the time of the survey was estimated at slightly below 13,000 households.

    The survey applied a full-coverage (census) approach, i.e. no sample selection was made. The registration database served as the list frame. The total number of completed interviews was 12,643 households (7,393 in Gozamir and 5,250 in Belom).

    While the original data collection took a full-coverage approach, the public-release version of the dataset contains a systematically drawn sub-sample of this original data for reasons of statistical disclosure control. The total sample size in the dataset presented for public release is 2,528 households (1,478 in Gozamir and 1,050 in Belom).

    Deviations from the Sample Design

    None.

    Response Rate

    Information unavailable.

    Weighting

    This dataset is self-weighting. Nevertheless, since the dataset presented here for public release contains only a sub-sample of the original data (see above), a uniform weights variable is provided in the data.
