- Further breakdown of SADD and country of origin data by district/camp within Turkey, Greece or the Balkans is also available.
- The range of the current age brackets being used (i.e. the 18-59 brackets) significantly reduces the usefulness of age in analyzing disaggregated data. Greater insights could be gathered around the age-based needs of populations served by Mercy Corps if age were collected using Mercy Corps’ recommended age brackets, or preferably, collecting the exact age of household members as well as that of registered individuals.
- There are anecdotal reports that a small percentage may be individuals from other countries of origin self-reporting as Syrian, under the belief it will be easier to gain asylum and/or receive aid. However, there is not extensive research to either corroborate or disprove this.
