Emergency Nutrition Assessment (ENA)
Source: Action Against Hunger (ACF)Date Published: 7/9/2015Format: TextAnnotation: The purpose of the Emergency Nutrition Assessment (ENA) for Standardized Monitoring and Assessment of Relief and Transitions (SMART) is to make nutrition assessments and mortality rate calculations in emergency situations as easy and reliable as possible. It focuses on the most important indicators (anthropometric and mortality data), checks the plausibility of the entered data, and gives out an automatic report. Since the software cannot explain why children are malnourished or mortality rates are high, the results of the survey have to be complemented with other information (e.g., from the Food Security part of ENA or discussions with key informants); collection of this additional information on the household level has a high risk to reduce the quality of the anthropometric and mortality data. This resource was identified by the NIH Disaster Research Response Program (DR2) for researchers looking for pre- and post-disaster data collection instruments.

Source: Kyoto UniversityDate Published: 1/2006Format: TextAnnotation: This journal article (subscription required) describes an earthquake and tsunami questionnaire by Hirokazu Iemura et al., Kyoto University. Japanese researchers in Banda Aceh and surrounding areas in Indonesia after the great Sumatra earthquake distributed the questionnaire to people affected by the earthquake and tsunami. The purpose of the questionnaire was to collect information about what happened and what was expected by the affected people to be safe against future earthquakes and tsunamis. The questionnaire consisted of questions asking about their experience during and after the earthquake and tsunami. This resource was identified by the NIH Disaster Research Response Program (DR2) for researchers looking for pre- and post-disaster data collection instruments.
