Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) KAP - BAGA SOLA 2019

This dataset contains WASH KAP survey data from interviews conducted on 818 Households in November 2021 in the refugee camp of Dar Es Salam hosting above 17000 refugees in the area Baga Sola in Chad. As part of its core protection mission, the UNHCR provides Refugees, Asylum Seekers, and other persons of concerns (PoC) and adequate shelters in humanitarian emergency settings. The UNHCR and the wider humanitarian community are more in favour of settlement solutions that offer a seemingly normal life to forcible displace population, other than camps, sites, or settlements. In a well-designed camp, displaced people do not have to walk too far to get food, water, or medical care. Water points and latrines are well-lit and close to homes so that girls and women, especially, will not be exposed to danger. All these arrangements are as well done to prevent the spread of hygiene and sanitation-related diseases in camps. To monitor this important situation the UNHCR regularly organizes Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) Knowledge, Aptitude, Practises (KAP) surveys that monitor the WASH indicators.

本数据集包含2021年11月在乍得巴加苏拉地区达累斯萨拉姆难民营开展的入户访谈所得的水、环境卫生与个人卫生（Water, Sanitation and Hygiene, WASH）知识、态度与实践（Knowledge, Aptitude, Practises, KAP）调查数据，该难民营收容了超过17000名难民。作为核心保护使命的一部分，联合国难民署（United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, UNHCR）会在人道主义紧急场景下，为难民、寻求庇护者及其他受关注人员（Persons of Concern, PoC）提供充足的庇护场所。联合国难民署及更广泛的人道主义共同体更倾向于为被迫流离失所者提供可近似正常生活的安置方案，而非单纯的难民营、临时安置点或定居点。在规划完善的难民营中，流离失所者无需长途跋涉即可获取食物、饮用水与医疗服务；取水点与厕所照明充足且紧邻居所，可有效避免女童与女性面临安全风险。上述各类安置安排同样旨在遏制难民营内与卫生及环境卫生相关的疾病传播。为监测这一关键状况，联合国难民署定期开展WASH KAP调查以追踪相关WASH指标。
