This report gathers lessons identified from assessments of the humanitarian situation in West Africa during the later stages of the Ebola crisis, between November 2014 and April 2015. It is based on conversations with individuals from different organisations who conducted assessments, as well as on ACAPS’ experiences of assessments conducted in Sierra Leone and Liberia during the Ebola Needs Analysis Project (ENAP).
