Moldova Multi-Sector Needs Assessment for Ukrainian Refugee Households, 2023

The 2023 Multi-Sector Needs Assessment (MSNA) in Moldova evaluated profiles and urgent needs of Ukrainian refugee households. Conducted by external partner Impact-REACH from August 14 to September 10, 2023, it employed a non-probability, purposive sample of 850 respondents stratified by region. The findings provide indicative insights to inform the 2024 Regional Refugee Response Plan.
