Jerusalem, March 23, 2014 –<\/strong> Ninety Palestinian field workers are conducting house-to house surveys as part of a two month data-collecting exercise which will bring long term benefits to women and children in Gaza and the West Bank.<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

Following a rigorous two and a half week training course, the field workers set out on March 2 to collect data from 7,375 households in the West Bank and 3,750 households in the Gaza Strip.<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

The Palestine Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey (MICS) is being carried out by the government, with the assistance of Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵICEF. The field workers are collecting information from households in urban, rural and camp locations, focusing on health, education and child protection.<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

Organizers say the interviewers are facing two main obstacles; accessing hard to reach areas behind the West Bank Barrier, and collecting all the data they need before the end-of July deadline.<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

Once the data is collected it will be fed into the Secretary General’s Millennium Development Goals report, which will be released in 2015.<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

“This survey will help Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵICEF and the government to target their programmes to respond to the most pressing needs of these communities in this complex and protracted emergency”, said Sarah Ahmad Mirza, Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵICEF Regional MICS Coordinator.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
