Slovak Republic - Multi-Sector Needs Assessment 2022

Starting in February 2022, an increasing number of refugees and third-country nationals (TCNs) entering Slovakia was registered as a result of the war in Ukraine. As of 25 May 2022, Slovak authorities reported over 450,000 arrivals from Ukraine out of whom close to 420,000 were Ukrainian refugees and close to 14,000 TCNs. Data collected by REACH between March and June 2022 also indicated that 38% of respondents crossing the border into Slovakia considered it as their final destination and that 65% of those intended to stay in the country as long as the conflict in Ukraine continued. To respond to their needs, collective centers (CCs) were to host the refugees. While these centers play a key role in the humanitarian response, the overwhelming majority of refugees reside in the host community; however, little to no information is currently available (May 2022) to response actors regarding their demographic profile, household composition, geographical presence, vulnerabilities, humanitarian needs, movement intentions, or coping capacities.In this context, REACH with the support of UNHCR undertook a multi-sector needs assessment (MSNA) light with the global objective of supporting an evidence-based humanitarian response in Slovakia through the provision of multi-sectoral data about the needs and coping capacities of Ukrainian refugee households in the country. Data collection took place between 18 July and 12 August2022. This dataset is the anonymous version of the original dataset. Note that the variable nationality was removed from the dataset to protect data subjects, however all but one respondent was of Ukrainian nationality.
