The Global WASH Cluster's Coordination Toolkit emphasizes the importance of needs assessments in humanitarian contexts. These assessments aim to inform strategic decisions by providing clear analyses and prioritizations of WASH-related humanitarian needs. Key components include aligning WASH sector assessments with intersectoral processes led by OCHA, developing core indicators for data harmonization, conducting secondary data reviews, and coordinating primary data collection to address identified gaps.
