OUGD503 - Disaster Aid/Emergency Packaging - Refugee Camp Research

https://emergency.unhcr.org/entry/45582/camp-planning-standards-planned-settlements

These guidance notes outline the minimum standards required to ensure planned settlements enable refugee communities to live with security and dignity in a healthy environment which improves their quality of life.





After thorough research, one of the most important areas to consider within refugee camps is the sewage and wastewater treatment. Without this aspect, the camps can quickly start to become unhygienic and spread disease with all of the inhabitants living within close proximity. This is an area which must be researched further.
