As of 24 November 2013, the Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) has been progressively rolled out in 64 sites in the catchment

areas of 5 hubs (Tacloban, Guiuan, Ormoc, and Roxas). As co-lead of the Camp Coordination and Camp Management (CCCM) Cluster

with the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD), CCCM interventions have been prioritized based on the severity

of overall displacement and numbers of IDPs inside evacuation centres as depicted in the attached map. Thus far, the DTM has been

implemented in 44 sites in Tacloban, 8 sites in Guiuan, 6 sites in Roxas, and 5 sites in Ormoc. Following the analysis of these initial

assessments, CCCM will begin scaling up the roll out of the DTM to more sites in the severely affected areas to gain a holistic picture

of multi-sectoral gaps and needs.

TOP 5 OVERALL NEEDS IN SITES ASSESSED

1. Shelter & NFIs (construction materials, mosquito nets, light, bed kits, etc.)

2. Food

3. Water

4. Camp Management

5. Health (medicine, medical attention)

6. Sanitation & Hygiene (sanitation and hygiene kits)

In Tacloban, 82% of the sites assessed reported Shelter & NFIs (particularly lights, mosquito nets, and bed kits) as the

top need followed by food (69%), health (65%) and water (61%). In Guiuan, the top needs include food, shelter & NFIs

(particularly bed kits and construction material) and water. In Ormoc, shelter materials were identified as the highest

need in 100% sites assessed followed by food and health. In Roxas, Shelter & NFI and Sanitation & Hygiene particularly

bed kits, repair kits, and hygiene kits were identified as top needs in 67% of the sites assessed. Other needs include:

communication (i.e. megaphone, radios, etc.), clothing, attention from the government, and transportation.

Rapid Intentions & Needs Assessment – Tacloban IDP sites

-24th November 2013-

BACKGROUND

As of 21/11/13, 3,166 IDP households were resident in 40 evacuation centres located in Tacloban City and the surrounding area. At the request of the Shelter Cluster and CCCM clusters, and in coordination with the WASH Rapid Assessment Team Coordinator, in Tacloban, REACH has conducted a rapid assessment of IDP intentions and needs with regards to returning to their place of origin.

Between 22/11/13 and 24/11/13 REACH deployed assessment teams, comprised both of four REACH and two IOM enumerators to the field to conduct a representative random sample of IDP households resident in each of the evacuation sites. The data presented in this report represents findings of assessments conducted with 2,188 IDP households across 40 IDP sites. See Annex A for a breakdown of households assessed per IDP site.

METHODOLOGY

In each site identified by IOM and the CCCM cluster, REACH generated a representative random sample with a 95% confidence interval and a 5% margin of error. Enumerators selected households for assessment randomly in each site through conducting a randomised field walk. Depending on the population size of the IDP site, assessment team leaders instructed enumerators as to the number of households to skip when conducting the randomised field walk. For example, in large IDP sites enumerators skipped every two to three households, and in small IDP sites every available household was targeted.

Assessments were conducted using an assessment tool built on the Android smartphone based Open Data Kit (ODK) platform which significantly improves data quality as a result of: (a) reducing human error as a result of loss of forms, data collection mistakes, and data entry mistakes thus improving the accuracy of collected data; (b) increasing the speed at which mapping products and analytical reports can be produced through reducing data cleaning time and removing the for data entry; and (c) ensuring the protection of data as a result of completed forms being removed from the data collection tool upon upload to the centralised database.

KEY FINDINGS

Displacement

Almost all, 99.6%, of households reported that they were normally resident in either the same Barangay or Municipality as the evacuation centre they had been displaced to. Only a very small proportion, 0.4%, reported that they had been displaced form a different municipality to the evacuation centre they were resident in at the time of assessment.

When asked as to their future plans, the vast majority of households, 83%, reported that they intended to return to the plot of land they had been displaced from as a result of Yolanda. For the proportion reporting that they intended to move to a different location the preferred settlement location was a different Barangay within the same Municipality; accounting for 56% of this proportion.

For households not intending to return to the area they were displaced from the most predominant reasons for the selection of a new location are based around safety issues; either to be further from the coast, 51%, or as a result of more general safety and security concerns, 53%. In addition to safety issues a considerable proportion of households, 39%, reported that they had selected a new location to settle as a result of the availability of livelihood opportunities.

The vast majority of households resident in evacuation centres, 86%, reported that they had at least one member who returned to their home during the day or night. The most predominant reason given for returning was to salvage shelter materials, 68%. With regards to the capacity for early recovery, 53% of households that reported a member returning during the day or night were doing so in order to carry out repairs on their home.

Households selected for assessment through the random selection process were asked to rank their top three support needs that would facilitate their return to their home. The most commonly reported primary need was CGI sheeting and fixings, 47%. Only a minority of households selected tarps and fixings as a primary, secondary, or tertiary need; indicating a clear preference amongst IDP households for CGI sheeting as a roofing material. Skilled labour only selected as a support need by a minority of households, indicating a high capacity for self-recovery amongst IDP households given access to the right materials.

Land Tenure

With regards to land tenure status, only a very small proportion, 11%, of households resident in evacuation centres reported that they held official documentation for their land prior to Yolanda. Additionally, of this small proportion of households with documentation prior to the Typhoon the majority, 59%, reported that they had lost their documentation as a result of Yolanda. As a result of the high proportion of households squatting, shelter interventions will have to be carefully coordinated with local stakeholders in order to ensure acceptance.

WASH

Access to water in their respective place of origin was reported to be problematic by a majority of households. 57% of households reported that they had experienced water shortages severe enough to have a serious impact on their standard of living prior to Yolanda.

Despite the majority of households, 60%, reporting that they had access to sanitation facilities in their home prior to Yolanda, the remaining 40% reported that they had no access. As a result, WASH interventions, particularly the construction of appropriate latrine facilities, should be integrated into future shelter responses targeting households currently resident in evacuation centres.

For households resident in evacuation centres, major flooding was reported to be a considerable risk prior to Yolanda; with 81% reporting that they had experienced major flooding in their place of origin. As a result, resilience strategies for households resident in flood risk areas should be employed.
