Time : 9.30 to 5.00 PM

CCCM : CAMP PROFILING ENUMARATOR TRAINING

The main objectives of the collaborative camp profiling

process are to:

Provide a regularly updated OVERVIEW of the situation in camps

hosting IDPs, including disaggregated population estimates

Consolidate information for ADVOCACY and FUNDRAISING

efforts on behalf of IDPs living in camps

Indicate the need for more detailed thematic ASSSESSMENTS

Strengthen COORDINATION of camp level information collection,

analysis and response

Support CAPACITY BUILDING for camp managers over-time

OBJECTIVES

The main expected outputs from the camp profiling

process are:

Individual camp profile reports, containing an overview of the

situation in each IDP camp including population estimates, updated

every six months

Cross-camp analysis report, including a comparison between the

situation in GCA and NGCA camps

An openly accessible database of information at camp level

EXPECTED OUTPUTS

The mission of the data collector can be divided

in three stages: before, during, and after the

data collection.

Main Roles & responsibilities of the enumerator

Data collectors have to identify the geographic location of each camp allocated to them.

Once in the camp, data collectors must establish contact with the respective camp manager / responsible to provide information on his or her identity and explain the purpose and objectives of the camp profiling exercise.

If the camp manager / responsible is not present, the data collector should find out at what time he or she would be back and set up a follow up visit.

Before data collection activities begin

Data collectors can proceed to conduct the interviews in the camps

allocated to them.

The primary key informant for the interview is the camp manager

or responsible person.

As capacities vary from camp to camp, in case the manager or

responsible person is not able to provide all the information

requested, data collectors are advised to identify other(s) key

informants who can provide general information about the camp

(e.g. camp committee members, community leaders, teachers,

doctors, midwives, or local authorities).

During the next stage

The interview can only begin when the camp manager /

responsible or the additional key informant(s) agree to

answer the data collector's questions.

For the final section of the camp level questionnaire

(identification of gaps) the data collector must also identify a

female camp resident that can provide information about

camp resident’s needs (e.g. camp leader, women's

representative, etc.), to be interviewed separately from the

camp manager.

During the next stage…

After the interview is completed the data collector must

check the camp level questionnaire to make sure that:

All questions on the questionnaire have been completed, and

that if any fields are left blank it is justified;

All answers have been correctly noted according to the

guidance provided in this manual

All skip patterns indicated in the questionnaire have been

correctly followed

METHODOLOGY

Target population and geographical coverage Planned Camp or Settlement Spontaneous / Self-Settled Camp Collective Centre The camp profiling process will not cover IDPs living in

individual dwellings

Thematic coverage Disaggregated population data by sex, age groups and

vulnerability for each location; Geographic identification of camp locations; Community-level indicators of camp conditions and

infrastructure (e.g. shelter, water, sanitation, health, education) and camp management structures;

Priority needs identified by camp managers and camp residents;

Activities and assistance provided to camp residents in each camp.
