This Review aims to set out 'good practice'
in the counting and identification of individuals requiring humanitarian
assistance, dealing with the task of establishing the most appropriate
means of determining how many people may be in need, and identifying who
they are. It looks at the following:
- Basic principles
- Counting and Identification: why, by and
for whom?
- Registration
- Identifying a beneficiary population:
quantitative approximations
- Identifying a beneficiary population:
a social, cultural, economic and political profile
- Typical scenarios
The review is not a manual, but seeks to
provide relevant, practical, and easily accessible advice to field personnel
in emergency operations. Rather than addressing general needs and resources
assessment in any depth, it assumes certain needs have been identified.
