While needs like Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH), food, and shelter remain a priority for households in both Khanfar and Al Makha districts, other needs—such as mental health, protection, and accountability—have been found to influence the ability of vulnerable population to meet these priorities. Addressing these interconnected needs holistically can foster resilience and ensure more equitable access to essential services.
Women in Khanfar and Al Makha reported higher prevalence of serious problems, particularly in healthcare and hygiene, with gendered disparities exacerbated by limited access to services and safety concerns.
