[Al Shirqat,Iraq ]

BACKGROUND

People in Need (PIN) is an international, non-profit organization providing humanitarian and development assistance in over 20 countries worldwide. Formed in 1992 in the Czech Republic, PIN has grown to be the biggest organisation of its kind in post-communist Europe, providing relief where it is needed, and empowering civil society at home and abroad.

PIN began its work in Iraq in 2003 focusing on reconstruction and renovation of schools and health centres. After a short break, PIN decided to re-establish its presence in the country in January 2015, mainly in response to deteriorating humanitarian situation in the country and massive displacement of people from conflict-affected areas. Since then, PIN has maintained a strong presence in Iraq, and has gradually extended its activities across the Governorates of Ninewa, Salah Al-din, Kirkuk and the Kurdistan Region of Iraq. Typical recipients of our aid are internally displaced persons, returnees, and people who survived the fighting near their homes and meet the pre-defined criteria of vulnerability.

Apart from humanitarian aid, PIN is currently working on long-term programmes supporting restoring livelihoods, education, access to water and hygiene. These programmes should facilitate people´s return to their original homes and support the stabilisation process after the defeat and removal of IS.

The training will brief enumerators on; how to use data collection software such as KOBO, how to conduct interviews with beneficiaries, the PIN Complaints and Response Mechanism, and the relevant assessment questionnaire. Depending on the assessment, the enumerators will either collect data in the field directly, or in PIN office conducting interviews by phone. Enumerators will be supervised by the ME team in all activities. Enumerators will be provided transport to assessment locations by PIN.

 

Enumerators will be regularly monitored to assess their performance, through supervisor observation in the field and by checking the data collected at multiple points during assessments.
