This form can be used to assess the refugee landfill site for public health and environmental sanitary risk factors.
UNHCR field staff and their partners should conduct a waste composition assessment to assess the types of waste being produced and their and rates of production. Ideally the assessment should be carried out within the first three months of a displacement emergency and then at least once a year. Waste management short, medium and long term strategies for each waste stream should be revaluated and reorganised according to the findings of this assessment.
Where required, UNHCR and WASH actors should prepare a WASH related environmental impact assessment. This template should be used to assist in the process.
