Operational Guidance on Coordinated Assessment - IASC 2012
08 Jul, 2019
The Operational Guidance promotes a coordinated approach to assessments in order to address a number of recurring issues during emergencies. For example, there is not so much a lack of assessment information as a lack of capacity to validate and analyse the information necessary to determine priorities and guide planning of the humanitarian response. Likewise, certain populations or situations are over-assessed while others are never measured at all. Also, assessment data is all too often insufficiently shared or used, and data sets from different assessments are not comparable. Finally, there is insufficient time to aggregate data from multiple assessments, information needs are not sufficiently prioritized and data collection processes are cumbersome.

In order to address these gaps, the Human Rights Center (HRC), Save the Children, and Plan International partnered on a long-term research initiative to strengthen child marriage prevention and response in humanitarian settings. This qualitative study, the second phase of the three-phase initiative, sought to better understand the risk and protective factors, decision-making processes, service and support needs of girls and their caregivers that contribute to vulnerability to child marriage, and community perspectives on solutions for addressing and responding to child marriage in humanitarian settings.

Cash and Voucher Assistance for Adolescents- PLAN, WRC 2020
31 Mar, 2022
Adolescents – young people between the ages of 10 and 19 – have specific needs that are distinct from those of younger children and adults. This transitional and developmental period is increasingly seen as an “age of opportunity”1 globally and in humanitarian settings, because of the significant individual and intergenerational implications of adolescent development. Cash and voucher assistance (CVA) – giving beneficiaries cash or vouchers as an alternative to in-kind assistance such as food, blankets and direct services – is used increasingly in humanitarian settings. While CVA shows promise for addressing adolescents’ needs, a more comprehensive understanding of the impact of CVA on the protection and wellbeing of adolescents is critical. In particular, evidence is needed on how CVA should best be designed to draw on the assets and capacities of adolescents and ensure that any context-specific associated risks for adolescents can be mitigated through program d...

Basic Needs Assessment Guidance and Toolbox (Part I)
08 Jul, 2019
The Basic Needs Assessment (BNA) is a multi-sector needs assessment approach that can be applied in both sudden onset and protracted emergencies, but that – in the present edition – has been piloted only in two protracted crises, namely in Borno State (North-East Nigeria) and in Fafan zone (Somali region of Ethiopia). The approach took inspiration from ECHO’s Basic Needs Framework for Integrated Response.
