Most of the refugees rely on humanitarian assistance, having left with few possessions and exhausted their financial resources on the journey. The cyclone and monsoon seasons, stretching from May to October, further threatened the living conditions of the vast majority of refugees living who are in makeshift shelters and settlements highly vulnerable to floods and landsides.\n\nTo understand the evolving priority needs of the refugees, and to understand change over time, this Multi-Sector Needs Assessment (MSNA), coordinated by the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) and with technical support from REACH, was conducted in 33 refugee sites using a household survey methodology  (3,165 households were surveyed). It is a follow up assessment to MSNA I in July 2018.\n\nResults of this MSNA are generalizable to the camp level with 95% confidence level and 10% margin of error. Support for questionnaire translation and enumerator language training was provided by Translators Without Borders.","coll_dates":[{"start":"2019-01-08","end":"2019-01-26","cycle":""}],"nation":[{"name":"Bangladesh","abbreviation":"BGD"}],"geog_coverage":"33 refugee sites in the upazilas of Ukhiya and Teknaf in Cox's Bazar district.","analysis_unit":"households","notes":"The scope of the survey includes:\n- household characteristics\n- needs\n- income \n- expenditure\n- risk perceived\n- shelter details\n- individual characteristics\n- health\n- working sector"},"method":{"data_collection":{"data_collectors":[{"name":"Impact - REACH","abbreviation":"","affiliation":""}],"sampling_procedure":"Data collection was conducted in 33 refugee sites.
