Due to the large size of Domiz Camp, humanitarian actors are using different mass communciation systems for public announcements, including door-to-door leafleting, public information boards, community meetings, SMS text messages and public speakers, as well as directly through leaders of each sector of the camp. In addition, in Domiz Camp several unofficial Facebook pages and groups have been set up for information sharing. In this context, REACH facilitated a rapid assessment in December 2013 to assess the efficiency of the mass communication systems currently used within Domiz camp. This factsheet presents the main findings from the assessment.
