In response to recent reductions in funding for the Kenyan refugee operation, increased global competition for funds, and a common belief that not all refugees in such protracted situations have the same humanitarian assistance needs, UNHCR and WFP decided to undertake a study among refugees in Kakuma Camp. The main aims were to fill knowledge gaps regarding refugee livelihoods and the level and differences of vulnerability in refugee households, as well as to explore the feasibility of delivering more differentiated assistance and to identify the mechanisms that would need to be put in place to do so. Specifically, the study was meant to determine whether a permanent targeting mechanism could be put in place or whether other ways of prioritising assistance exist when resources are tight. The survey covered 2,000 households and was implemented in November\/December 2015.","coll_dates":[{"start":"2015-11-08","end":"2015-12-04","cycle":""}],"nation":[{"name":"Kenya","abbreviation":"KEN"}],"geog_coverage":"Kakuma refugee camp, Kenya","analysis_unit":"Household and individual","universe":"All refugee households residing in Kakuma refugee camp, Kenya.\n\nUNHCR PPG: 1KENB","data_kind":"Sample survey data [ssd]","notes":"The scope of the quantitative data of this socio-economic assessment includes:\n- Identification of the household\n- Characteristics of household members (demographics, disability, education\/literacy, trade\/skills)\n- Dwelling characteristics\n- Access to services\n- Asset ownership\n- Sources of income\n- Economic activity of household members\n- Assistance\n- Consumption expenditure\n- Coping strategies"},"method":{"data_collection":{"sampling_procedure":"The survey's objective was to deliver representative data of all households living in Kakuma refugee camp, with robust disaggregation to the sub-camp level.

The four sub-camps of Kakuma were considered strata and the 126 administrative blocks were considered sub-strata. All strata and sub-strata were retained for the sample.
