To respond to those acute needs, an assessment was done by NMO. The assessment discusses the risks and interests related to GENDER and VULUNERABLITIES in terms of protection, responsibilities, participation and access to sources where it was found that women and other at-risk groups do not participate in any community-based activities related to agriculture or taking leadership positions.
Including food shares (quality/ quantity), the families were found to follow a moderate pattern in which they have enough food, yet they get to share it sometimes. This, however, affects women accessing food in terms of the price inflation especially in areas that are not accessible to get food where food sources are quite distant.
Not only does this affect women, but it also contributes to a major damage to kids' inclusion in fetching food especially when they have to skip schools rating between 30%-50% during the day spending 6- 12 hours daily which exacerbates the risk to a max level.
In case of food distribution, specified and appropriate timing is ensured to guarantee safety, however they claim the lack of food distribution points which, to some extent, does not harm the mean of transporting food as they go walking or using bikes. When transporting food by trucks, they report a convenient yet not safe. No sufficient facilities to guarantee the needs of the affected population. No sexual incidents were ever reported, though.
