The objective of this regional exercise is to strengthen evidence-based protection responses by regularly collecting and analyzing data on the demographics, protection risks, legal needs, displacement patterns, and basic needs of refugees from Ukraine. Data was gathered through household-level interviews conducted face-to-face at border crossing points, reception and transit centers, collective sites, and assistance locations in major cities. The structured questionnaire was administered by trained enumerators from UNHCR and partner organizations using digital data collection tools. Although respondents were selected to reduce bias, the sample follows a non-probability design and results should be interpreted as indicative rather than statistically representative of the refugee population.","geog_coverage":"Belarus, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, Poland, Romania, Slovakia","analysis_unit":"Household","universe":"Refugees from Ukraine present in Europe.","data_kind":"Sample survey data [ssd]","notes":"The scope includes:\n- demographics\n- displacement journey and current location\n- protection risks and needs\n- access to services\n- assistance and feedback\n- future intentions and legal needs","nation":[{"name":"Belarus","abbreviation":"BLR"},{"name":"Bulgaria","abbreviation":"BGR"},{"name":"Czech Republic","abbreviation":"CZE"},{"name":"Estonia","abbreviation":"EST"},{"name":"Hungary","abbreviation":"HUN"},{"name":"Latvia","abbreviation":"LVA"},{"name":"Lithuania","abbreviation":"LTU"},{"name":"Moldova","abbreviation":"MDA"},{"name":"Poland","abbreviation":"POL"},{"name":"Romania","abbreviation":"ROU"},{"name":"Slovak Republic","abbreviation":"SVK"}],"keywords":[{"keyword":"Protection monitoring"},{"keyword":"Ukraine refugees"},{"keyword":"Europe response"},{"keyword":"Intentions"},{"keyword":"Needs assessment"}],"topics":[{"topic":"Protection"},{"topic":"Gender Based Violence"},{"topic":"Child Protection"},{"topic":"Education"},{"topic":"Health"},{"topic":"Return"},{"topic":"Basic Needs"}],"coll_dates":[{"start":"2023-10-01","end":"2024-04-30"}]},"method":{"data_collection":{"sampling_procedure":"Households were randomly sampled at border crossing points, reception and transit centers, collective sites, and assistance points in major cities.
