Summary
This paper intended to find out what data is currently publicly available for calculating expenditure on temporary shelter and settlement. The goal was set to see how feasible it was to reach it with the current data available. This goal is to be able to calculate approximate spending on shelter by: a. agency; b. region; c. type of activity; d. number of beneficiaries (and whether these beneficiaries can be broken down into refugee, IDP or disaster-affected); e. proportion of imported shelter responses compared to those using local material; f. in temporary settlements, broken down into communal shelter, family shelter and agency infrastructure for co-ordination of temporary settlements. The object of this scoping paper is to highlight the obstacles that are in the way of realising the ultimate aim of the research.
