The data presented in this factsheet represents the preliminary findings of a first phase of an assessment (see methodology summary section below for more details) carried out between the 18th of December 2012 and the 20th of January 2013 in Erbil Governorate, Iraq as part of a UNHCR funded project aimed at addressing the information deficit existing in relation to refugees hosted in cities and villages around the region. All numbers of total refugee populations are based on Key Informant Interviews and final results are still in the process of verification and completion. It is important to note that numbers are not gathered through a registration process or household interviews but are estimated figures based on key informant information. What is important to highlight with this level of assessment is where concentrations of refugees are gathering and what trends in vulnerabilities and perceived issues are identified. As the REACH database is progressively updated and verified further updates to these factsheets will be prepared, contributing to a wider analysis at the Governorate level.
